Student Snaps:

Admission:

Why I Chose My Design College: I chose my design college because of its unique blend of creative freedom, academic rigor, and strong industry connections. When I was considering various colleges, I was looking for an institution that would not only help me hone my design skills but also expose me to innovative methodologies and technologies. The faculty’s expertise, combined with a modern, well-equipped campus, played a key role in my decision. Comparison of Design College with Other Colleges: Curriculum: My design college offers a progressive curriculum that integrates both traditional and digital design practices, preparing students for the ever-changing design landscape. Other colleges I applied to either focused too much on one or the other, which I felt would limit my growth.The flexibility in the course structure allows me to specialize in areas like graphic design, UX/UI, and product design, something that wasn’t as pronounced in other institutions. Industry Connections and Internships: The design college I chose has a strong network with leading design agencies and startups, ensuring students have valuable internship opportunities. These connections provide a clear pathway to professional employment.In comparison, some of the other colleges I applied to didn't seem to have as many active partnerships or strong alumni networks in the design industry, which made me worry about post-graduation opportunities.
