Dear Jakkula

Since the admission to Fashion Technology courses is done through institute-specific entrances conducted by different universities, the underlying competition is different for different courses and colleges. Some colleges are highly coveted like NIFT, while some newly created institutes are getting up there.

Coming to your question, generally, these institutes do not release the data of the number of students who appeared for their entrance examination, which corresponds to the competition therein for admission to a particular course. However, an estimate of the competition for a particular college/course can be gauged through newspaper reports. In order to gain an assessment of the underlying competition in every institute, our counsellors file RTI from time to time in order to gain an exact idea of the number.

So, if you want to know the for Fashion Technology course at a particular institution, you can tell us the name of the institution for us to be able to give you an idea of the same. For instance, the data issued by NIFT reveals that in 2017 a total of 21,994 students appeared for NIFT examination, out of which 7,727 students qualified for admission to about 2k (B.Des. and B.F.Tech) seats.

You can also check respective exam specific articles of Careers360 to know the numbers of candidates appearing for the examination.

Hope it answers. All the best!
