The National College of Arts (NCA) has officially opened admissions for its 2025 academic session, inviting applications across both its Lahore and Rawalpindi campuses. The last date to apply is August 12, 2025.
Students can apply under several categories, including open merit, self-finance, self-support, and reserved quotas, including the foreign quota. The Lahore campus is offering undergraduate programs in Architecture, Fine Arts, and a variety of Design disciplines such as Visual Communication, Textile, Fashion, Product, and Ceramic Design. It is also accepting applications for Musicology, Film & Television, Multimedia Art, and Cultural Studies. Meanwhile, the Rawalpindi campus is offering degree programs in Architecture, Fine Arts, and Design—including Visual Communication, Textile, and Fashion—as well as Multimedia Art.
All applicants must submit their forms online through the official website of the National Testing Service (NTS). A single form can be used to apply to multiple campuses, departments, or quota categories. Once registered online, candidates are required to print out the admission form, attach attested copies of relevant documents, and send the package to a designated NTS centre before the deadline. The fee for the prospectus, courier service, and admission test must be paid through a computer-generated challan that will be available during the online registration process.
Roll number slips for the admission test will be uploaded to the NTS website at least a week before the test date. For complete details and updates, prospective students should refer to the official websites of NCA and NTS.
