Hii Absar, there isn't anything specific requirements for NIFT raebrareli. It's same as of the other NIFT centers. You will get into the college as per the merit rank. Since NIFT raebrareli is not in demand as per the other NIFT centers, you can easily get into it up to the 700 rank. But it also depends on the course you are looking for. Nift raebrareli offers fashion designing ( FD ), accessory design ( AD ), leather design ( LD ), fashion communication ( FC ), there are 30 seats in each trade. NIFT raebrareli also have 5 state domicile seats for uttar Pradesh students. So, if you belongs to uttar Pradesh then it's a good news for you. But I will suggest you to try for other NIFT centers also, there are many more centers which are much better than raebrareli center. I hope you understood well.
All the best.

1 - regular classroom programme
2 - special weekend batches
3 - crash course
4 - postal coaching
You can choose any of these programme, whatever is suitable for you. They will provide you the study material like books, previous year question papers with solutions and stationary. For more information you can checkout their website. I can only help you with their phone numbers.
I this information will help you.
Good luck!

Hey,
Since you have asked this question in design thread, I am assuming that you want to opt for any Master's degree course in Design after completing your M.Tech in computer science. If it is so then you can go for any design course depending on your interest in jewellery, clothing or shoes, etc., or if you want to use your skills of computer science, you can understand the needs of particular department and design required software or application for the same. This is applicable for all the courses. Also, you can opt for any technical course like MFT i.e Masters in fashion technology which will let you aware of what fashion world is up to and you can master the skills of implementing the fashion at the mass level. It will help you and in a factory or buying house. So, basically, it depends on your interest and whether you want to utilise your existing knowledge or not.
Thanks.
