You need to clear entrance for getting admission in the desired course at NIFT. There are some other institutes where you can get admission without entrance exam.

If you want to get admission in NIFT then you have to appear for NIFT entrance exam and it's mandatory for everyone who wants to be a part of NIFT. Hope this will not let you down, but all you have to do is believe yourself and go for it.

I am very sorry to say but you cannot get admission in the college if you don't qualify the entrance exam. All the best.

Can't we pursue B.Des from any private university like Amity University or LPU So that, we may have 3 or 4 years for preparing for entrance exam for NIFT and NID.
