This is a really open and inclusive place irrespective of your gender , sexuality, caste etc.
Considering the fact that most of the courses here have visiting faculty it makes you open to new people and let’s you know more perspectives and help you think differently

Dislikes

The infrastructure is really old which dates back to 1961 and over the time it has just been renewed and not completely furnished or reconstructed
I guess they should change the curriculum since they have been following the same curriculum since the beginning and ig it’s high time that it gets updated

Fees and Financial Aid:

The fees for nid is supposed to be paid in two instalments towards the beginning of each semester. The tuition fees for each semester are 183500.Hostel is for 6000 per semester and mess is 23120 each semester. Nid provides freeship to the students whose annual income is less than 500000 per annum and the distribution of the scholarships depends upon the availability of the fund and the number of students applying. To avail a scholarship you need to have a sgpa above 5.

A worth Design collage

Fees and Financial Aid:

NIDs feed is 1,20,000 per year. And the full course is for 4 years. They don't give scholarships to students they gave campus placements to students which is quite good approch People do believe that NID campus are quite new for this level of exam but let me tell you it's not. NIDs are really affordable and that Tag will give you so many apportunities in future

Fees and Financial Aid:

No I haven't gotten a scholarship but the institute does award it based on parental income. There is mostly a 50% to 100% decrement in the total fees.

Sruti's Review On National Institute Of Design - [NID], Ahmedabad

3.8Helpful

Course Curriculum Overview:

I think NID has a good structure and a strong right knot community system, which when tapped into well, can act as a brilliant system of support and upheaval. The course syllabus could be more up to date and market-oriented, but at the same time, it is also thinking based and human-centric which works well for understanding the fundamentals of a design thinking and process. Also, NID is a place with a rich history, this having an abundance of good alumni and visiting faculties. It usually leaves you up with your devices, so most learning here happens from self-driven motivation and curiosity.
