Along with it, you need to check year of establishment, batch size, syllabus, faculty, fees, placements etc. Below are the details regarding NIFT as per the official site : -> Institute Description : National Institute of Technology is one of the prestigious colleges. It was setup in 1986, under the aegis of the Ministry of Textiles, Govt of India.

For a lucrative career in Fashion Designing, you can opt WLCI fashion school. If you are a class XII pass out, then you can go for the undergraduate full time B.A in Fashion Designing from WLCI. And if you are a graduate then it is best to pursue a Professional Diploma in Fashion from WLCI Fashion School. Their unique traineeship programme is extremely helpful where students are given practical training. Their placement cell is quite praiseworthy. Admissions are going on and you can either visit the nearest WLCI campuses or download the form from WLCI website. Recently, they have launched a scholarship programme through which students can avail up to 100% scholarship after clearing a test. The Last Day for Registration is 20th January, 2014 and you can apply at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://wlciadmissions.in/scholarship" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>http://wlciadmissions.in/scholarship</a>
