• For top design colleges like NIFT and NID, cutoffs are extremely high and competition is very tough. NIFT typically requires a minimum of 80-90%ile score in the entrance exam for shortlisting.
• Other leading design institutes affiliated with universities have cutoffs in the range of 50-60%ile scores in qualifying design aptitude tests.
• Colleges accept either merit scores in relevant design entrance tests like NID DAT, NIFT MAT, or marks in 12th board exams. Cutoffs in 12th boards are usually set at 50% to 60% for general category applicants.

Additionally, many colleges conduct their own entrance tests, interviews, or portfolio reviews to assess applicant's creativity and interest in the field. The final admission offer is given based on a composite assessment across these parameters.

So in summary, while the most prestigious design programs are intensely competitive, other relatively newer institutes are more realistic with 50-60% + cutoffs either in entrance exams or 12th boards.
