Hi


NATA is conducted by the council of architecture and is mandatory for admission into first year B.Arch courses across all the colleges and institutes in India.

Whereas JEE (AAT) is conducted by national testing agency and is mandatory for getting admission into B.Arch program offered by IITs.
