Admission:

The admission process was quite good. I took an online entrance exam that had some unrelated questions to the course, such as physics, math's, etc.  I was a bit misguided with the process as I had applied for graphic design but I was enrolled in communication design, so I'd like to suggest keeping it a bit clearer.  The application form, fees, and dates for everything will be guided to you by the campus assistant themselves.
