CEPT University to Accept NID DAT 2027 Scores for BDes Admissions

CEPT University has officially announced that it will incorporate NID DAT 2027 Mains scores into its admission process for the Bachelor of Design (Honours) program. This decision, applicable for the 2027-28 academic session, allows design aspirants to leverage their performance in the National Institute of Design (NID) entrance examination to secure a seat at the university.

The National Institute of Design (NID) Ahmedabad confirmed this development through an official notification, noting that CEPT University has been authorised to utilise these specific scores for a portion of its BDes intake. While the NID DAT scores will be a key component of the selection process, CEPT University will independently manage its own application and counselling portals to finalise admissions for its design program.

Application Deadlines and Registration Process

Prospective students aiming to apply for the BDes program at CEPT University must ensure they complete their registration for the NID DAT 2027 examination. The application window for the entrance test is currently open, with the final deadline set for November 30, 2026. Interested candidates are required to submit their applications by 11:59 PM on this date to be considered eligible.

To register for the NID DAT 2027, candidates should visit the official admissions portal at admissions.nid.edu. The process begins by selecting the relevant programme and completing the sign-up procedure. Applicants will need to provide accurate personal details, including their date of birth, nationality, and category. A valid email address and mobile number are mandatory for the OTP verification process, which is a required step before logging in to fill out the detailed application form.

Once logged in, candidates must input their educational background and personal information. The process also requires the uploading of essential documents, including a photograph, signature, and any necessary supporting certificates. After completing the payment of the application fee, students are advised to download and save the confirmation page for their records. CEPT University has also verified this admission update through its official communication channels, advising students to monitor both the NID admissions portal and the university's own platforms for further instructions regarding the counselling phase.
