THE GOLDEN LADDER

No i do not have any bad remarks about my college. I don't think I'll ever get such amazing experience like i had got feim my college.

There were three examinations, the first was GAT which is the Feneral Ability Test, the second is CAT which is the Creative Ability Test and the last is the Situation Test. I had ranked 11th position in the ST category. I have opted for this college because its one of the best design schools in India and it will help me strive for a bigger goal and achieve my dreams.

We had learnt the basics of art and designs in the 1st year and in the 2nd year we were introduced to our respective departments, we were given the introduction to fashion and needs to improve our designs skills including draping and pattern making. In the 3rd year we went about with the exploatory part of fashion and learnt all the necessary skills to be a designer and in the 4th year is about polishing what ever we had learnt throughout the years and showcase it in the final show that will be held in May.

The internship experience was very helpful and productive. It surely broadened up my knowledge about the industry. I did not recieve any stipends but I got to keep the assignment works which I had done in the industry.

We haven't started with placements so I'm not sure on how it will be. We will be having our placements in the month of April.

We usually have three events in college. The first would be Spectrum, a two days cultural events happening in all the centres. The second is the graduation fashion shows and displays. The third is Converge which is an inter college competition among the NIFT centers.

Very expensive. The fee structures increases yearly by 10%. Each semester will cost approx. 60000 to 70000. This is the only drawback about our college that everyone are finding difficult with and that would be paying the fees.

There are schlorships fiven by the college to the students but the criteria for applying the schlorship forms is very strict. Hence very few people are getting the scholarships.

NIFT is probably the only college that one can have the experience of diversity in all aspects. Though the gender ratio is not even, it does not make any difference.

I do not stay in a pg or hostel so I will not know how the structure is. The quality of the canteen food is manageable but sometimes a little unhygienic.

They are probably the most helpful and respectable people i have come acrossed with. An interaction with them helped me boost my confidence and self esteem.

Its quite hectic since our assignments would be piled up before the exams and the exam structure is not bad regarding the fact that our daily assignments are eqally important as the exams.

The faculty were supportive and helpful in all fields. They have helped me since i had started my course and I do not any anything against them apart from the fact that they are wonderful at their jobs.
