Admission:

I applied to ISDI, UID and BITS Design I was accepted into all of them but the main factor to chose CEPT was it is a 62 year old college with an established name in the industry and a well connected network of alumni all the other colleges did not have this, another thing was the rest were too expensive. The admission process for my college is very simple for design they accept the UCEED rank, for architecture and planning they accept NATA scores and for civil engineering they accept JEE Main ranks the process is completely merit based. And the common minimum eligibility is 40% aggregate percentage in 12th grade examination. The admission process is very streamlined and hassle free

Admission:

I chose this college over other colleges because of its legacy and great academics. The program in this college is very modern and unique and teaches the students to follow their own passions. One other point is also the location of Ahmedabad, which is very architecturally, rich and possess many buildings made by great architects and the exposure you get here is unmatched. The admission processes are fairly simple where a list is given out on the basis of Nata and boards. According to this list, the students are offered admission. we just have to show up with the documents and the process is very simple. Other government colleges follow very long processes, and you often get frustrated.

Admission:

The course I pursued is a bachelor's in the interior. But from now it's changed to a bachelor's in design which is a bigger window of the design field and it's eligible for all 12th-grade students from any stream. UCEED is compulsory for all design students. Application forms, fees, and dates its available on the Cept University website. All quota reservations like ST SC OBC is an available and 50 percent ACPC for Gujarat students. Cept is improving daily as cept has TLC members who take care of academics, and a student council who forward the problems from the GB to the cept council. And a lot of people manage campus curricula and management. The fees, it's high because of the infrastructure, full-time college, and the facility for the students. The new program bdes which is a bachelor in Design and communication design. I just finished the last year of my college it was a great experience and journey.
