Dear Aspirant,

Yes NATA is compulsory for taking admission to any Architectural College. Additionally some top Architectural Institutes, conducted their own tests apart from NATA.

Best wishes

Hi Prinka,

Yes it is necessary to give NATA before taking admission in Architecture, as prescribed by the Council of Architecture, a statutory body under MHRD created under the Architects Act of 1972, prescribed with the authority to regulate architectural education in India.

NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture) is just an Entrance Test which measures the aptitude of an aspirant in the field of architecture. On receiving the Score Card, the candidate will have to contact various admission authorities with NATA Score Card and other details (as prescribed by the respective Admission Authorities). Admission in India lies with the State (usually under Directorate of Technical Education for that state). Usually around summer, Admission Authorities will bring out admission notices in National & Regional newspapers. The candidate may contact schools of architecture directly for information as to when the admission process is scheduled to begin.

Eligibility criteria for applying for NATA: 10+2 or equivalent from a recognized Board/University with Mathematics as a subject of examination with the least 50% aggregate marks.
