About IPS Academy BFA

IPS Academy School of Fine Arts in Indore offers a four-year, full-time BFA under RMTU, the state music and arts university in Gwalior. The school started in 1994 and stands #1 in Collegedunia's BFA ranking for Indore. The full course fee is INR 1.60 Lakhs, or INR 40,000 a year. There is no entrance exam. You fill the RMTU admission form on MP Online, and the college then admits you on your Class 12 marks and an interview. RMTU fixes 40 seats for each class or subject. You choose your branch in year 2. The college does not publish an average pay in LPA for its BFA students.

IPS Academy BFA Fees

The total fee with the university form and enrolment fees is INR 1.61 Lakhs, while the course fee alone is INR 1.60 Lakhs. The course fee is INR 40,000 a year for four years. This total has no hostel fee in it. You pay the university form fee of INR 300 once, and you do not get it back. The college has not put out a new fee yet, so this is the last published fee.

Should you pick BFA at IPS Academy?

This course suits students who already draw or paint and want a low-fee art degree in Indore.

Pick it if:

You want to work as a designer or an art teacher: past students on the school's list work as concept artists, design leads and lecturers.

You are not sure which art branch suits you: everyone does the same first year, and you choose your branch in year 2.

Your family wants a low fee: the full course fee is INR 1.60 Lakhs, the lowest of the Indore BFA colleges in the compare block below.

You missed an entrance exam this year: this seat needs no exam, only the RMTU form on MP Online and an interview at the college.

Skip it if:

You want a placement drive with a fixed package: the school puts out no average pay or placement rate, so your portfolio finds you work.

You plan to apply only at the college office: the college admits only students who filled the RMTU form, and that form closes in July.

You need a single room from the first year: the hostel gives first-year students shared rooms only, with two, three or four to a room.

You want only animation from the start: a branch with fewer than five students may not be taught, so ask which branches the college teaches.

Renaissance costs INR 40,000 more over four years and ranks one place lower. If the lower fee matters to your family, keep IPS Academy first and Renaissance as your second choice.

In short

SVVV costs INR 8,000 more over four years, so the fee gap is small. If you want a bigger university campus, visit SVVV; if fee and rank decide it, take IPS Academy.

In short

Artemisia costs almost the same, only INR 3,000 more, but it has far fewer student reviews to judge it by. If both offer you a seat, visit both studios before you pay.

In short

Graffiti costs about INR 57,000 more and has only two student reviews on Collegedunia. If you want a fine arts degree on a known campus, IPS Academy is the safer pick.

FAQs on IPS Academy BFA

Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.

Is BFA at IPS Academy worth the fee?▾

Yes, if you want a low-cost art degree in Indore. The full course fee is INR 1.60 Lakhs, or INR 40,000 a year, the lowest in the compare block above. The school publishes no average pay, so the fee is low but the job outcome is not fixed. Build a portfolio from year 1 so the fee turns into work.

What job can I get after BFA from IPS Academy?▾

Most BFA students here go into design, illustration, animation, art teaching or gallery work. Past students on the school's list work as concept artists, design leads and marketing designers, and three teach at the school. There is no published average pay, so ask the college for its latest list of jobs before you join.

Who should not take BFA here?▾

Skip it if you want a placement drive with a fixed package, or a single hostel room from the first year. The school publishes no placement rate, and first-year students get shared rooms only. If either matters more to you than a low fee, look at the compare block above before you decide.

Should I take this course if I want a campus placement?▾

Not if a campus placement is your main reason. The school puts out no placement rate and no average pay for BFA students. Most past students found work through studios, agencies and teaching. Take it if you are ready to build your own portfolio and find work yourself, and ask the college about internships in year 3.

Is applied art or painting the better branch for me here?▾

It depends on the work you want. Applied art suits advertising and design jobs, while painting suits gallery work, teaching and further study in fine arts. You choose the branch in year 2, after a common first year. A branch with fewer than five students may not be taught, so ask which branches the college teaches before you choose.

Is BFA from IPS Academy good for higher studies like MFA?▾

Yes. The school also teaches an MFA, and RMTU asks for a BFA in the related subject for MFA admission. RMTU fixes 30 seats a class for postgraduate courses. Pick your year 2 branch with the MFA subject in mind, because the MFA must match it.

Should I wait a year if my Class 12 marks are below 50%?▾

Not before you ask the college. RMTU needs only a Class 12 pass, but the college asks for 50% or more. Write to the college before the RMTU form closes and keep the answer in writing. If the college says no, you can apply next year after improving your marks.

Should I join only because the fee is low?▾

No, the fee should not be your only reason. The course fee is INR 40,000 a year, but the school publishes no average pay. Visit the studios, look at student work at the school's exhibition and ask which branches the college teaches this year. Join if the teaching and the branch you want are both there.

How do I get admission to BFA at IPS Academy?▾

Fill the RMTU admission form on MP Online and pay the INR 300 form fee. The college then calls you for an interview and confirms the seat on your Class 12 marks. Pay the first-year fee, show your originals and fill the RMTU enrolment form after you join.

What is the full fee for the course?▾

The full 4-year course fee is INR 1.60 Lakhs. With the RMTU form fee and enrolment fee it comes to INR 1.61 Lakhs. This is the last published fee, and the hostel fee is not published, so check both with the college before you pay.

Is there a hostel for BFA students?▾

Yes. IPS Academy has hostels on its campus, and full-time students with final admission can apply. First-year students get shared rooms only, with two, three or four to a room. The hostel fee is not published, so ask the hostel office for it before you book a room.

Which scholarships can I get for BFA here?▾

You can get up to INR 56,000 over the course from the schemes in the calculator above. The Central Sector Scheme gives INR 36,000 if you are in the top 20 percentile of your board. A village girl from MP with 60% in Class 12 can add INR 20,000 from the Gaon Ki Beti scheme. Use the calculator to check your own case.
