Admission:

The campus and faculty are good. Infrastructure is also amazing compared to other fashion designing colleges. They have girls and boys hostel inside the campus itself. It's a Lil bit away from the main road but if you walk a bit then the area is nice. Everything about this college is nice except the fact that the students don't really know English properly which is a big black mark I think. Other than that everything is amazing. About the admission, because of those covid, they had postponed their exam and we had to give it by August end. And our classes started in October. They took the entire college fees and hostel and mess fees within 5 days. I would prefer this college over other colleges because it's in Bangalore and their infrastructure is good. You can play whatever you want, you have a gym, the teachers are also pretty cool. Moreover, they have a genuine 100% placement cell. And they cover all. The topics in 3 years. It's not just fashion and apparel, but they cover everything.
