Hello Aspirant,

A scholarship student doesn't necessarily need to stay at a hostel in NIFT. NIFT implies the National Institute of Fashion Technology. It is a praiseworthy fashion and design institute and its office is in New Delhi. It has campuses in Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Gandhinagar, Hyderabad, Jodhpur, Kangra, Kannur, Patna, Shillong, Raebareli, Srinagar, and Panchkula. It conducts its entrance exam i.e., the National Institute of Fashion Technology entrance exam generally known as the NIFT entrance exam at a national level for entry into design programmes namely - Bachelor of Design ( B.Des ), Bachelor of Fashion Technology (BFTech), Master of Design ( M.Des ), Master of Fashion Management (MFM), and Master of Fashion Technology (MFTech). A total of 4,517 UG and PG design seats are assigned to the NIFT qualified aspirants.

I hope it helps.
