<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am a sophomore at my current university. However, I absolutely don’t like what I am studying. This is due to the numerous liberal arts courses we are required to take. I do not appreciate liberal arts and show no interests in them. I have applied to Parsons The New School for Design (design and management) and New York University School of Continuing Professional Studies (advertising). I have always been very interested in fashion, design and advertising. The following are my questions.</p>
<p>1) Which degree will open doors to better opportunities?</p>
<p>2) Is a degree from NYU SCPS respected?</p>
<p>3) Is admission to NYU SCPS and Parsons extremely competitive?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>As a student at NYU SCPS for the past several years, I can help answer those portions of your question, although I don’t know much about Parsons. </p>
<p>1) A degree at NYU will definitely open doors…much of the money spent to go to a “status” school is for the opportunity to network with others who have connections and can afford to go to a school of that status. NYU has such a broad range of schools, that as an alumni you will have access to network in many ways.</p>
<p>2) Once you graduate from NYU SCPS, the degree just states New York University. From there it is up to you to tell people which school at NYU you attended, if you so choose. I don’t believe there is less respect for this degree, however I have no idea what the opinion of others may be.</p>
<p>3) I was surprised with the admissions process at NYU SCPS. I had withdrawn from my previous college years prior, but missed the withdrawal deadline and it negatively affected my transcript. Therefore, I was worried about my grades not being up to snuff, but I believe they pay almost as much attention to your entry essay as they do to your grades/SAT scores. The SCPS program is not as competitive as the regular freshman admissions. Maybe it has to do with the fact that adults tend to care more the second time around? </p>
<p>Good luck whatever you do!!</p>
