Nift chennai: your favourite love and hate relationship
Likes
- Campus life is the best part and the freedom of being who we want to be is truly an empowering experience
Dislikes
- Only thing to dislike about design colleges is the amount of work given because once its time for mid sems and end sems, you will know nothing but submissions
- Money spent. Being in Leather design, the amount of cash i have spent on 2 credit subjects is actually crazy
- When faculty roasts the life out of you in jury for the design they initially approved themselves
Remarks :
My interest in fashion honestly was behind it all but I have realized that wasn’t just enough and I have learned so much more in this college not only academically but also as a person. The admission process for this is very simple with two levels to clear. The first one is divided into two parts- CAT(creative ability test) AND GAT(general ability test). The former deals with majorly drawing and your creative skills where you get questions based on poster design, product design, etc whereas GAT includes logical reasoning, general knowledge, and basic maths up to 10th grade. This written test is conducted usually around mid-February and you get 5 hrs in total (3 hrs for CAT and 2 hrs for GAT). Once you have cleared this round, you are short-listed for the situation test which is conducted on different Nift campuses. The situation test is more of a hands-on challenge to your space and 3D modeling skills. I joined a coaching for the entrance exam for 2 months during my pre-board.
Course Curriculum Overview :
There wasn’t any particular reason for me choosing Leather design. Honestly, it did not matter to me which department I was in as long as I was in Nift. All of the faculties are extremely knowledgeable as most of them have prior experiences in the industry itself. Although the teaching methods are according to what they feel is best, it also depends on the students and what kind of learning they prefer. Term exams or jury are nothing short of nightmares with crazy amounts of work and then getting roasted every time. Please check your pockets before joining Nift as it is not going to be easy on your bank account especially if you are in Leather design. All the Nift campuses do offer the SARTHAK scholarship where you can get a certain percentage off of the actual fee each semester. You can check more about this on the official Nift website.
Internships Opportunities :
Considering I just completed my second year of college, I don't have any first-hand experience with internships but just instances heard from our seniors. The companies and roles offered depend majorly on your department and your skill set. Internships are not offered through the college except if your faculty mentor has connections in the industry, then they help you out. All in all it's only your resume and portfolio that decide what kind of internship you would land and the amount that will be paid for the same.
Placement Experience :
Placements through colleges are not the most reliable as the number of companies that even come to offer jobs is very limited. Although Nift has introduced this new policy where companies are not allowed to pay less than 8lpa to any student. Number of offers made per year depends on the industry situation at that point. Nift Chennai has to be mentioned as it bagged the highest package of 32 LPA almost 3 years ago. The percentage of students getting placed through NIFT is not worth mentioning as most of them don’t accept the low wages they are providing. Saying so, the NIFT brand does help in the industry by giving you an upper hand. My plans after this degree are not related to the course I am pursuing but rather to a slightly different field that I would like to explore. Mostly around fashion pr, marketing, fashion business, and luxury merchandising is what I want to work with. I would also love to explore fashion editorials if given the opportunity
Campus Life :
Spectrum is the highlight of every Nift campus and ours is no exception. It is a story on its own. Our campus also organizes an inter-department fest around September. I promise this is where all the fun lies because of the sheer amount of competitiveness amongst departments. Everyone including faculties, assistants, and other staff members gets completely immersed in the competition. The resource center is one of my favorite places on the campus with the fashion section being the best. You would get books in almost every category and also all the editions of Promostyl (it's a big-time blessing). Most of the classrooms do have air conditioning( not if you are in the first year sorry) but the real vibes are in the pattern-making classrooms of each department. Now about clubs and sports, we have a cultural club, a music and dance club, and a sports club that hosts various football and cricket competitions. We also have our own reflections magazine for which we release new editions every year.
Hostel Facilities :
Applying for hostel rooms can be done directly through the official Nift website. Although the food is below average like any other college mess, the rooms are above it and so is the security. Nift Chennai hostel is 1.5 km away from the college and therefore buses are provided for transportation. Although the food options are still not the best, I would recommend staying in the hostel for at least your first year so that you can get to know the city at your own pace and then make your decision about moving out. Also note the hostel rooms are nice, clean, and spacious unlike other colleges that lay similar claims

Good college and value for money
Placement Experience :
Around 70% of the students from this course got placed, which is kinda decent I think. The highest package went up to 21 LPA and the lowest was around 5 LPA. Some of the main companies that came for recruitment were TCS, Zoho and Wipro. For internships also, students got chances in companies like Zoho, Amazon and Wipro. Most of the roles offered were related to HR, not much technical roles from what I heard.
