Hey ,
There are couple of ways to enter in the industry .
there are couple of dept in the advertising , decide your intrest .
then there are two ways, according to my view ,
1) go straight to the industry and start working
2) take up a course
in first way .. find your intrest .. is it art direction , account planning , copy writing ... it can be anything .. go to the production house or ad house .. make a portfolio according to the intrest . talk to the industry people about how to get in . talk to the people having same intrest as yours . read ogilvy .
in second way .. other than MICA there are also many other colleges . MICA is like MECCA , I know but you can find god somewhere else too. try SIMC , XIC , IIMC . try out there . talk to the students studying there .
The best way is talk to the people who are working in industry . Mail them , meet them .. make a portfolio show them ask them .. then decide ... what to do..
Best of Luck
