There must be tons and tons of apps for them to go through awhh
@sabrinan If you don’t hear by April 15th I would definitely call. I know last semester some people who made the priority deadline heard around the first two weeks of December (Spring letters were out by December 1st)
I sent them an email last night, so hopefully I’ll hear back soon
Some people posted they heard via email. I thought all letters were sent USPS. Does anyone know?
@kendallpaiige They claim that only a small group receive emails. Everyone else hears via mail. But honestly I hear so many different things from FIT that I don’t think they even know what’s going on.
Yeah, some recieved emails like last week informing them that they got in, but it was only a select few. The rest of us should get our letters this week
@madzzz @sabrinan I got in from an email from residential life and then the next day I got the letter. It was a wave of emails that day from FIT.
@shinybulbasaur Thanks for the heads up! I’ll keep an eye out for their emails. I really hope I hear in the next week or so. I’m still going to reserve a room at my other school so I’m prepared for a rejection letter.
if it says “undergraduate” in my level section on my application status page does that mean i got it?
Hi guys, I don’t think it even matters when you applied, as I have submitted all my materials in September 2014!! I now at least found out that my application is under review and will receive a notice in a week or two, so this April 1st is not really correct. There are so many speculations, smal letter rejection, DHL tracking acceptance because it is a welcome packet? It would make sense they will not spend money and why tracking a rejection? Sounds cruel… I’ve read everyone’s post but not many return to explain how did they get it… Even the email does it come with the decission or tracking only? For those with letters only, is it a regular envelope for rejection and acceptance bigger welcome package? And I feel you Madzzz, you had a long journey too… I’ve moved to Ny just to go to FIT a year ago submitted everything on time for last Spring just to find out they offer the AS in Fashion Design in Fall only!! Mind you I started the paperwork in Feb 2013, moved across the States, if I knew this I could still apply for last Fall. That’s how early I was but their website wasn’t updated to reflect this…so I lost a year, now anxiously waiting, thought I would find out by Apr 1st… but I figured let me register here and commiserate with the rest of you:) Anyone receiving something can you please post details? I sure will if I ever live to hear back;)
oh and the “undergraduate” I don’t believe it has to do anything with acceptance as you had to prefill that when applying with Suny which then shows as your basic info…Mine says that too…
Well when I received an email from FIT - it only congratulated me on acceptance and invited me to Admitted Students Day. There wasn’t any info on tracking numbers for letters or housing info nor did my MyFIT portal change. I called Admissions office just to confirm if the email was legit. They said letter was on its way but still haven’t received it… So don’t get your hopes up if your MyFIT portal hasn’t changed or you haven’t gotten any emails or you haven’t received a letter today…because I think they’re a bit behind haha. They DO have alot of applications to go through anyways
@Vendula oh man, I am so sorry. That would really irritate me! I hope you’re at least liking NY. I would call them and confirm that you’re under review like me. Just to make sure they still kept your papers and whatnot. I mean both times I applied they lost my transcript. I’m sort of in a similar situation; I’m gonna move down south if I don’t get into FIT. But id like to know ASAP before I plan on a long ass road trip. Naturally they’re taking their time with my application. I hope you get in!
wait listed
@ thissuxs > very cool username btw 
Thanks for the details! I heard this invitation for student day last year was only for only few selected students, so that was one of the first batches probably, What’s irritating that they posted on March 13th on fb that they started sending acceptances out to be by April 1st and so I got my hopes up and we’re all still waiting, well at least for you Congratulations!! Oh, and what program did you get in? and @ Madzzz Thanks! What program did you apply to as well? I am the evening AAS Fashion Design, which I’m starting to think will be the last batch as first is honors, then full time, then “part - time”… Oh, I did call and luckily that is what they said, My application is complete and under a review and that they will send out decisions in 1 to 2 weeks, But they seem to have that answer for many people so I am also worried this is a generic answer, you know, Yeah I was starting to think something was missing as there is no confirmation other than that portal and they do not put any info there really, only that my portfolio was reviewed in November, It’s a mystery how they do it, I mean if everything was in, I don’t think they should be starting to look at it now, then what is the point of a deadline,who knows… but yes, nervous as well! But now I know they haven’t even sent anything out so I can’t even stalk the mail box ); Well I hope you get in Madzzz Let’s hope we’ll be complaining how much homework we have in a few months 
I assume this is your first choice? My only choice, so uuuggghhh
@Vendula I’m shooting for the Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing, so I need to take the AS in Advertising and Marketing Communications. This is definitely my first choice, no one else really has a program that will prepare you for working in the corporate beauty industry. My backup school is where I grew up, I miss my family. So either way I will be happy. Plus I can always try again. However, after I found out my application is still under review my parents and even my little sister have been trying to get me to send my midterm grades to the school (somehow I pulled all A’s) but I don’t think they will even really matter at this point, since I’m under the impression that they should have a decision in the next few days. I really wish there was a way to find out on our application if we got in or not… this wait is awful.
@Madzzz … OMG!!! I got the letter yesterday! (Apr.2nd) I did get in! I didn’t get home till about Midnight… While during my lunch break I wrote on another fb discussion board named “Acceptance letters”… which they update daily even few times a day so I asked straight out when should I be expecting a decision? They wrote I should be receiving it shortly, while email said between now and mid April, while another board they answered your application is under a review, so I was not expecting anything in the mail thinking clearly they have not made their decision yet! So anyway I wanted to stop by to at least give some details, if it any helpful, I know I was feeling a bit better reading through the posts here still hoping, Anyways I have not even read it yet as I was super tired from work dinner and aoke up extra early to go through it now:) But it arrived regular mail, no tracking like they were saying, no email. It cam in a big envelope (welcome packet) and said a big Congratulations on the envelope!! But I did not believe it till I opened it and read the actual Congrats in the letter, So I hope this helps someone. I wish you the best of luck to get in! Who knows maybe we’ll run into each other in the hallways although I am going for the evening program, Friend me on fb if you like, My name is Vendula Kalinova ( in NYC) & anyone that might be in the school that wants to chat or befriend ahead of classes Good Luck!!!
I’ve been following this forum for a while now, & checking my myFIT portal daily to see any changes, I’ve called the admissions office and My decision will be mailed out within these next 2 weeks which honestly sucks because it’s an added stress to this whole waiting process. Anyways I applied as a transfer student from here in central Jersey into the FMM 2 AAS program for this fall. @Vendula you said you asked a Facebook discussion board when you’ll be getting your decision right? Which discussion group is that because if it’s directly linked to them I’d want to know ahead of time to save me the wait -_-
And congrats to those who’ve made it in, I’m hoping to be on that same boat soon enough. If not then back to grinding and making moves happen to apply again for Spring '16
@Vendula omg congrats!!! Are you planning on applying for the dorms??
They told me the same thing, on one discussion for they said my later should get here soon but then when I emailed them, they said it was under review and said by next week I’d get it. Hoping it comes today or tomorrow ~ Crossing my fingers!! The housing application was open on April 1 so I hope I can get the desicion fast so that if I’m accepted, housing won’t all be filled up.
Congrats and good luck everybody!
