A half-day open house for prospective students and families — campus walk-throughs, faculty Q&As, student panels, and an honest conversation about what studying at Krea actually looks like.
Sat, 2 August 2025
Free
9:30 AM – 1:00 PM
Grade 11–12 & Families
ITC Grand Chola, Chennai

The Krea Open House is our answer to that question — a half-day experience designed for students who are seriously considering applying, and for the parents and guardians who will help them decide.
This is not a glossy presentation. Krea faculty and current students will be present, in conversation, and available for direct questions. You’ll hear from students about what the academic workload actually looks like, from professors about how they teach and what they expect, and from alumni about what Krea prepared them for — and where it stretched them.
The Open House includes a campus experience (in our host venue), a student panel, faculty introductions, and a dedicated one-on-one advising session for families who register in advance. If you leave with more questions than you came with, we’ll consider that a success.
Brief talks by three SIAS faculty members — not about their CVs, but about the questions that drive their teaching.
Unscripted Q&A with students from Years 1–3. Ask anything. They’re briefed to answer honestly.
The application process, selection criteria, financial aid options, and deadlines explained in detail.
Book a 15-minute private session with an admissions counsellor. Limited slots — pre-register to reserve one.
The people leading the Open House conversation. Different perspectives, genuinely different voices.
