Admission:

Nift is the best and topmost college in India. Nift Shillong ranks 3th last on the top nift campuses. The teaching staff is amazing with the best-qualified faculties. The environment is very inspiring and beautiful but it is away from the main city so it is isolated. You can apply for nift Delhi placements from Shillong as well hence it is the best college. Right now it is online thus the quality has decreased and in this, they have increased the fee which looks worthless but I am hoping that the college will open soon and everything will be normal.
