The K.R. Narayanan National Institute of Visual Science and Arts offers competitive Postgraduate Diploma programs in film and visual arts. Admission is a two-stage process: first, candidates must apply online and appear for a preliminary entrance exam, which includes tests of general awareness and special aptitude. Shortlisted candidates will then be invited for an orientation program and interview in Kerala. Final selection is based on cumulative performance in these later stages. To be eligible, candidates must possess a bachelor's degree from a recognized university. Seats are reserved according to the government of Kerala guidelines, including provisions for Keralites, persons with disabilities, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes. It's crucial to apply online through the institute's website, meet all deadlines, and prepare thoroughly for the entrance examination and subsequent stages of selection. Please note that application fees are non-refundable. Successful applicants will need to submit various original documents for verification at the time of admission.
