FIT 2019 WAITLIST

Second choice options for anyone who’s interested would be to start at a community college with an articulation agreement with FIT: http://www.fitnyc.edu/registrar/articulation-agreements.php

Herkimer and Genesee have student dorms.

Think about taking one online course from FIT over the summer as a non matriculated student. Doing well in an online course from them might give your next application more weight.

Aww man, none of those articulation agreements include graphic design or packaging design :frowning:

I’m waitlisted for the Fashion AAS Two-Year Program

Does anyone have any news ?

Has anyone been taken off the waitlist yet? If so can u explain how they notified you.

Any news??? Does anyone know if they’ve even started the waitlist process yet?

No news on my end =(. They did say to wait until July 1st. Sucks! Need to know already.

did anyone here applied for a Bachelor’s program?

Did anyone get a call from admissions? I got a missed call but when I called (an hour later) it rang and went to voicemail. I will just call back tomorrow. I wonder what it is about…in the message they just said it was regarding my application.

@katerinaxo I’ve heard that they call the applicant who will be accepted before they actually accept to make sure that the applicant is still interested. Have you called the admission office? What did they say?

I was waitlisted as well!! Fall 2019

@gmullen you have heard back anything from FIT?

They contacted me about studying in Florence for a year and I was accepted to that program off of the waitlist just wondering if anyone else got that opportunity?

Congratulations mesha55! My daughter was accepted off waitlist and going to Florence too! She’s been chatting with others from the group already.

the call was only to say that there was no movement on the waitlist. That I should be looking for other programs/schools because even FIT students (that are given priority) are on the waitlist and if anything opens up the space would go to those students. It’s so unfair that they prioritize FIT students, we should all have the same chance. So yea it was basically a rejection call. They didnt say that but they implied it. It was just a courtesy call to not keep my hopes up. Sucks but I kinda expected it. It’s a competitive program and I don’t think a transfer has ever gotten in, there are only 50 spots.

what program is in Florence? @mesha55

Should I choose FIDM or SCAD for my second choice?

Is there anyone got off the waitlist?

You can call admissions and give your ID number and ask if a decision has made. That’s what I did, and they told me there was no more room on the waitlist (at least for my major, film) so they withdrew my application, lol

@bluemmylou I’ve just called them and they said I gotta wait till the early of July. Also, my decision has not made yet and if there’s more space or not can not be given to me.
