Who can enrol

Admissions & How to Apply

Applying to NNWA takes four steps: fill the enquiry form, speak to a counsellor, complete admission with payment, then start learning straight away. Entry is open to anyone who has passed 10+2, and to doctors, therapists, coaches and career-changers. Fees can be paid in full or by EMI (equated monthly instalment).

01Eligibility

Who is an NNWA course open to?

Four entry routes, and none of them requires a science degree. NNWA (Nutrition & Wellness Academy) teaches the fundamentals from scratch.

  1. 01

    Students who have passed Class 12 (10+2)

    Open from any stream. Science is preferred on the Diploma but is not mandatory, and the fundamentals are taught from scratch.

  2. 02

    Graduates from any discipline

    A degree in any subject is enough to begin, and is the entry requirement for the Post Graduation Diploma.

  3. 03

    Doctors and allied-health practitioners

    Ayurveda and Homeopathy practitioners, physiotherapists and nurses take NNWA courses as an add-on to an existing practice.

  4. 04

    Fitness coaches, yoga teachers and homemakers

    No clinical background is assumed. A smartphone or laptop, an internet connection and enough English or Hindi to follow a class is what is needed.

How do I apply to NNWA?

Applying to NNWA takes four steps. Fill the enquiry form with your goal and background, talk to a counsellor about the right course and fee plan, complete admission by paying in full or choosing EMI (equated monthly instalment), then start learning. Access to lessons, notes and the mentor community opens as soon as admission is complete.

What is the eligibility for NNWA courses?

The Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health is open to anyone who has passed 10+2 from any stream, and to anyone with a higher qualification. Doctors, Ayurveda and Homeopathy practitioners, physiotherapists, fitness coaches, homemakers and career changers all enrol. The Post Graduation Diploma is open to graduates only. Short specialisation courses have simpler entry.

How much does the NNWA Diploma cost?

The Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health costs 29,999 rupees for the full six month programme. A learner can pay once or spread it through EMI (equated monthly instalment) from 4,999 rupees a month, and 0% interest education loan options are offered. An NNWA counsellor goes through the plans and helps pick one.

Can I pay NNWA fees in instalments?

Yes. NNWA accepts a one time payment or an EMI (equated monthly instalment) plan starting from 4,999 rupees a month on the Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health. There are also 0% interest education loan options. Speak to an NNWA counsellor before paying, so the plan is set up against the right course.

When do NNWA batches start?

NNWA runs batches through the year, so there is usually a start date close by rather than one annual intake. The current batch date, the registration deadline and the seats left are shown on the NNWA course pages. A counsellor can confirm the next start for a particular programme once the enquiry form is filled.

What do I get when I enrol at NNWA?

Enrolment gives live online classes in English and Hindi, recordings of every session, lifetime access to the material, notes and mentor support through the course. Diploma learners also get access to a job portal. On completion learners receive NNWA certificates, and eligible programmes carry a skill certificate at NCrF (National Credit Framework) Level 4.

Still deciding which course fits?

A counsellor will look at your background and tell you honestly which programme fits, including telling you when a shorter, cheaper course is the better answer.
