Placement Experience
Gettings shows and theatres are quite easy when you are from NSD. It has a great brand value in the industry, and due to alumni and recommendations, it's quite easy but one still has to work hard for maintaining the standard. The pay scale varies for different shows and theatres, so one cannot give a fixed rate. But, you will surely have a bright career ahead, if you are from NSD.
Fee Structure And Facilities
The total fees are 5,730 Rs. for three years which is very cheap. It covers your entire tuition, admission, and student union fees. I was from Mumbai, so I had to go for a hostel which costs me around 27K annually.
Campus Life
We have a lot of festivals going throughout the year as this is a part of our training. We have Bal Sangam, Bharat Rang Mahotsav, Jashnebachpan, Sunday club festival, Delhi International Arts Festival & Octave, and much more. We also play sports and do workouts to maintain our physical and mental health.
Alumni/Alumna
The alumni network is top class. All my seniors are in top-notch theatres and have a good connection in Industry, which helps in getting work easily. The seniors are also quite helpful in guiding and sharing their experiences.
Admission
I have an undergraduate degree in Comp. Science(B.Sc), but as I had more interest in acting, so I chose my passion. Getting here is quite a challenge, as there are a good number of applicants. There is a specialized entrance exam, and after clearing it one had to appear for a 5 days workshop, where they will select the candidates. One need to have a minimum of 6 theatre experience. Do get a recommendation letter from a theatre, as it helps a lot.
Faculty
The institution is considered as one of the best acting schools in India, so one can guess about the faculty. They are cream of the corp, with all experience and detail knowledge about theatres and acting.
