Where are these programmes taught?

These are regular programmes in the university’s own departments at Thendral Building within the Tamil Nadu Government Music College campus, R.A. Puram, Chennai. They are separate from affiliated-college, online and off-campus awards.

How long do the regular degrees take?

The listed regular MA Music, Bharathanatyam and MFA Painting programmes last two years. The university separately lists three-year weekend awards; their mode and admission arrangements should be checked independently.

What qualification is needed for music or dance?

The MA prospectus lists a BA in Music and several alternative routes involving a UG degree plus documented music training or All India Radio A-grade status. It expressly includes a four-year Kalakshetra diploma route. The university must accept the exact credential.

What qualification is needed for MFA Painting?

The regular prospectus specifies a BFA in the concerned subject through the 10+2+4, 11+1+4 or 10+5 educational pattern. Final acceptance remains subject to university authority or committee approval.

What is the teaching language?

Programme-specific teaching languages are not independently established, so language filters are left blank. An independent institutional directory lists Tamil and English generally; confirm the selected programme’s class and examination arrangements before accepting an offer.

What does the fee amount cover?

The MA/MFA amounts isolate tuition from their published regular schedules. The Theatre Arts quote is an annual programme fee without an isolated tuition component. Other payments, application charges, deposits and living costs require separate confirmation.

Are music tuition concessions automatic?

The MA table shows a separate SC/ST tuition-exemption column. Applicants must confirm their applicable category and produce the required certificates; this should not be treated as an unconditional waiver of all admission or living costs.

Can international applicants apply?

The university’s application documents include overseas applicant categories, but qualification acceptance, passport or visa requirements and the applicable current fee category require direct confirmation. The domestic fee should not be assumed to be the foreign rate.

When does the next intake begin?

Use the next applicable university admission notice for application and reporting dates. No exact intake month or future application opening is asserted here.
