Photography is a profession as well as an art form. For photography as a career in India, one must have that extra quality, an interest in visuals, attentiveness to colour, shape and shadow, an interest in light, in observing how colours look on certain days. Finding strong foothold as a professional photographer is no cakewalk, which is why, perhaps regrettably, many talented photographers remain amateurs.
candidates who have cleared the 10+2 examination are eligible for the diploma or certificate courses in photography. One can begin his/her career as an assistant of a senior or professional photographer, so that he/she can grasp the finer points of photography. Photographers can go on to specialise in areas such as portrait, commercial and industrial, advertising, scientific, fashion, news, wildlife photography etc.
A freelance photographer can earn a lot by selling photographs to various journals, magazines, news channels and newspaper houses.

There are several processes one needs to undergo to secure an admission into his/her choice of college. I'll try to list them as lucidly as possible:
1. First, target which college you want to get admitted into. Visit its official site and check for the eligibility criteria, cutoffs, fees, placements, etc.
2. Register for an MBA entrance exam(whose scores are accepted by that college), and fill its form properly.
3. Understand the syllabus of that exam carefully & accordingly start studying.
4. Give your best shot in the final exam. On clearing the necessary cutoffs, you may be shortlisted and called for the interview rounds(typically consists of a Written Aptitude Test/Group Discussion & Personal Interview).
5. If selected in the interview, you will finally be eligible to pay the required fees and secure admission.
Good luck.
