Overall, satisfied with the college.

Placements: Two years ago, placements were good as compared to the previous year. This time, around 75% students got placement. The maximum package offered to the students was 20 LPA, where the minimum was 1.2 LPA. Three start-up companies were there to hire the students. More than 12 labels visit for placements. Many established designer's brands also come here to hire. There is startup support also, for those who want to start their own startups.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good, but there is a lack of space. There are no hostels for boys, and even girls have to get into PGs after 2 years. Other than that, everything is fine. Availability of sports accessories is also needed. Instead of having ridiculous classes, the administration should also focus on sports also.

Faculty: Everything is good for learning. The college provides complete development for the students. Sometimes, mismanagement occurs, and politics among faculty members also happen. We desperately need a hostel. The college lacks in providing technical support also. Metro connectivity is needed here also.

Other: Two events happen yearly, cultural and spectrum. Besides this, many events are also organised by SDAC. Wi-Fi is there for connectivity but doesn't get much coverage. The scholarship is provided. Many extra-curricular activities happen in the college.

Am overview of life at NIFT Bangalore .

Placements: It's too early for me to comment on placements but talking to some college seniors has given me an overview. The placements starts after the 8th semester after the completion of graduation project. A good number of companies 8-10 come for the on campus placements and almost 70% students get recruited. Some students also get placed off campus through pre placement offers. The average package range between 6 Lacs-20 Lacs per annum. Students can apply for internships in any year but it's better to use the first two years to build a good portfolio and then apply for internships from the 3rd year. You can also reach out to your faculty members to connect you to companies for securing a internship.

Infrastructure: The college is well-equipped with Wi-fi, computer labs and an efficient library. The library stays open till 8pm and has almost all the resources a design student could need. Hostel facility is available on campus for girls from 1st year to 3rd year. Boys have to look for accommodation off campus. Hostel registration are done through the NIFT hostel website after the location of campuses. Food is available from 7:30 am to 9:30 pm in the college mess for everyone. The quality is pretty decent. There is a doctor available on campus for medical emergencies.

Faculty: NIFT Bangalore has one of the best faculty members of any NIFT campus. I have had a really good experience so far. The teachers are very friendly and approachable in general. Assignments are reviewed very strictly here but the teachers guide you through their feedback to help you improve the quality of your work. The curriculum is very well structured. The best part is not having any textbooks. Everything is a creativity and experience based hands on learning. There are no written exams as such. There are two major assignments which take place at an interval of 2-3 months carrying 30 marks each and there is a final assignment which is the end term assignment to be represented before a jury. It carries 40 marks. The assignments are very interesting and fun to work upon. The pass percentage is 50%. .

Other: I chose this course because NIFT is one of the best options in the country when it comes to studying Fashion. The campus crowd is very diverse giving you the opportunity to mingle with all sorts of people. There are a lot of events organised in the campus on a monthly basis from fashion shows to seminars to styling competitions and a lot more. Every festival from onam, Pongal, diwali to Holi is celebrated with great enthusiasm. There are different student clubs on campus like the photography club, literature club, social service club, sports club and the cultural club. A number of government scholarships are provided and students can avail the benefits of they qualify the financial criteria.
