Student Experience at NIFT

Likes

The people are fun to be around and from different areas
The environment is calm and the infrastructure is big
The exams are conducted as juries , so it’s practical

Dislikes

The teaching methods aren’t great, expectations weren’t met
The food is not great. It’s mostly the same menu every day
The facilities can be improved for the overall benefit

Admission:

I had applied to different courses, like law or architecture. But I didn't pursue the above said courses as NIFT gave me a better opportunity to dive into different streams and more interesting perspectives. There was no rejection from any college. There is an entrance exam for B.Des- which consists of 2 written tests - creative aptitude test and genetal aptitude test, followed by a situation test and then admission counselling. The cut-off rank for general category would be under 2000.

Nift kannur review

Likes

Diversity in college as students come from different parts of the country.
Regular industry visit/field visit for better exposure and experience gain.
Ample of cultural events and activities that maintain the youth of college.

Dislikes

There is no such thing I've seen so far.

Admission:

I didn't really applied for any other college as my preference was only fixed to national institute. As you know the status and prestige a national institute holds compared to any other private colleges. Admission process of nift started through giving nift entrance exam which was held by NTA in year 2024. After passing 1st stage of nift entrance exam i entered the second stage which is known as situation test in which you have to make models according to the topic. And then your final results come in according to which you apply for nift college.

Great Experience at NIFT

Likes

The college and campus is pretty peaceful. And you can know everyone in the college
The college especially the kannur campus organises various activities every week to keep the fun going on.

Dislikes

There is less departemnts in the college. The facilities are nice. Also they can inprove the canteen food.

Student Snaps:

Admission:

You have to clear the NIFT entrance exam first and then get qualified and then atend the situational test. And based on the rank there will be a councellimg session where you ll alotted the college you want based on the availability of seats. Knitwear design interested me and it have good oppurtunities in future. Its a raising industry and hence that.

NIFT KANNUR - the irreplaceable chapter in my life

Likes

The faculties are really industry experienced
The college provides students freedom of expression
All are treated equally and no discrimination is made

Dislikes

The course fees is too much and not affordable
Even if we are sick or in any bad situation that we cannot attend the classes, our attendance is still marked absent and we are forced to do rejury and pay fees . Even in worst situations they wont consider our situations.
The fact that the college is placed in the middle of nowhere like there is not much anything nearby

Student Snaps:

Admission:

Nift is one of the topmost fashion college in the world. It was my dream to get into that college.My hometown is in kannur so i opted for NIFT KANNUR. For getting into nift we are supposed to write entrance exam called CAT and GAT

My gen z college life

Likes

I like the vast curriculum here because if this we get to study not only design and fashion but it also includes modelling, gardening, dance zumba, shoots and many more.
These college will bring out the most out of u in terms of social interactions because u have to interact with a lot of people on a daily basis especially with seniors because these seniors will ultimately help u get internship.
The campus is really nice and quite big. The building is not that old but the problem is we don't have AC over here

Dislikes

I don't like the students over here because of tge superiority complex.
There is a language barrier as most of the students here are either malyali or marathi. The mallu people rarely speak English so it's difficult to have a conversation with them.
Faculties sometimes can take revenge saying that they can ruin ur career and all.

Admission:

So first u have to be under 23 age if u are applying for bachelor's and u have to prepare for CAT abd GAT which is creative ability test and general ability test. In CAT there will be three questions of drawing basically have to attempt in three hours and in GAT there will basic maths gk and reasoning u have to attempt it in two hours. After u pass CAT and GAT then only u can give situation test which is a craft based exam in three hours. And then the final result come after this process. Obviously there us reservation benifita for sc st people a lot of benifits because they have around 27% of reservation which i feel is unfair because the general people end up in trouble.
