The National Aptitude Test in Architecture, or NATA, is a national-level examination for admission to undergraduate courses in architecture (B.Arch). The B.Arch course is five years long. NATA is organized by the National Institute of Advanced Studies in Architecture. The examination has a duration of three hours and is given in English. Over 340 institutes accept NATA scores.
