Programmes and design streams
ARCH's historical AIEED material lists design areas including fashion, interior, jewellery, graphic/communication and product or craft-product design, alongside design-management programmes. These are examples from archived material, not a guarantee that every course is open in a new cycle. Confirm the current programme list, degree-awarding arrangement, campus and seat availability directly with ARCH.
Eligibility
Archived AIEED admissions information described undergraduate applicants as candidates who had appeared in or passed Class 12 (or an equivalent qualification), and postgraduate applicants as graduates or students pursuing graduation in a recognised discipline. It also contained programme-specific pathways and conditions. Treat these as historical guidance only: qualifying subjects, minimum marks, age conditions, equivalence and accepted qualifications for 2027 must be checked in the current ARCH prospectus.
Application fee
A current AIEED 2026 or 2027 application-fee schedule could not be verified. Check the fee shown in the official application portal before payment, including any programme-specific charges, payment modes, deadlines and refund terms. Do not rely on fee amounts from older admission cycles.
Historical assessment structure
IndCareer's archived 2025 AIEED article described three elements: a Portfolio of Abilities and Statement of Purpose, a CATA (Comprehension, Awareness, Thinking and Articulation) screening task, and a PED (Psychological Endowments for Design) screening. This is a historical description only. The current number of stages, delivery mode, duration, question format, marks, weighting, negative marking and interview requirements have not been confirmed for the next cycle; follow the current official brochure.
Important dates and official updates

IndCareer's 2025 archive recorded an application deadline of 31 July 2025 and an examination date of 5 August 2025; these dates are past and do not apply to a future cycle.
