Hi Everyone!
I wanted to start a thread for everyone applying for Fall 2017. I am applying to Entrepreneurship program at FIT. I am a transfer student with A.A.'s in Fashion Design, Fashion Merchandising, and Fashion Design: Assistant Designer. I have a low GPA (2.6) but I am hoping my experience described in my essay makes up for it. FIT is my first choice but I am also applying to SCAD, Cal Poly Pomona, and Paris College of Art.
Hi! I applied for Advertising and Marketing communications! fingers crossed!! My gpa is a little above a 3.0
good luck to you both!
Hi ! I have a 2.73 cumulative GPA right now. I am a senior at a nationally recognized and very competitive high school. My ACT was my saving grace for college apps, being that it is a 28, but FIT doesn’t take testing into account in their admissions process. I have many community service hours, around 150, but none fashion related. I do work at a really popular retail store. I’m applying for AMC. My current GPA for this past semester was a 3.33. What are my chances?
I applied to the Fashion Business Mangament one-year AS! Do you know if anyone has heard back from FIT? I’ve scoured the internet but couldn’t find much
I applied for FBM for AAS 2 years, and my gpa is a little over 3.2 and I’ve done a lot of fashion related things such as shows where i’ve designed and modeled and an FCCLA competition where i received a bronze medal for a piece I designed and sewed. I’ve worked at a job in retail since my junior year. Is this good enough for FIT? its my absolute top choice.
I applied for Production Management for AAS 2 years. I’m from Japan. Is there any people who apply to Production Management? Because I’ve never seen people who applies PM.
I was wait listed for the fall for the one year Fashion Design AAS. I’m from Maryland. This is the only program I applied to, so hopefully I get in.
I just applied for marketing and advertising for fall 2017. Are we supposed to have a FIT email address?
You’ll receive an e-mail which includes MyFIT ID&PASSWORDl in 7days.
Have you guys applied to other schools?
I just applied for Advertising and Marketing Communications! I have a 4.0 GPA and I briefly discussed how I’ve taken fashion classes in high school in my essay! I really do hope I get into FIT!
Did anyone else who applied get an email stating that their application was complete? I received that about two weeks ago. And today after emailing them about another question, they responded back that a decision had already been made on my application and that I would hear back before April 1st. So I am guessing from applying in the past, that my first email meant that a decision was already made then since they use complete sometimes as meaning a decision has been made.
Hello hello! I applied as a transfer for fashion design–I have one year of college under my belt. I do not have much of a background in fashion, but I have a fairly good GPA and can draw (somewhat) well.
I got the same email but I’m not sure if it really means anything.
@osomeliss, I thought so too. I thought it was just an email stating they received everything, but I sent them an email later asking would they need transcripts from this school I decided to attend this spring since I wasn’t a student there when I did the application, and they said no because my application was complete and it wouldn’t affect my decision. And when I talked to FIT previously from when I applied before they said complete means a decision has been made since the first email said complete and I emailed them less than a week after that email I think the first email means a decision has been made. I kind of wondering how many people’s application are already done, and if a lot are done will we hear back sooner.

I went to a information session at FIT, and maybe one or two students there (out of 20 or so people) were Production Management applicants. I heard great things about PM at FIT. I believe that admissions said the hiring percentage for that major is 100%. In other words, you will graduate with a job. Best of luck! I hope you get in. 
Thank you very much for your information!! I’m glad that I could hear that. I hope I can get in and you too!
I have a 3.3 average gpa with my senior year gpa being 3.68. I took multiple APs like Ap Drawing, Ap 2D, Ap 3D, Ap Econ, AP GOV, AP HUMAN GEO and etc. . I had multiple after school activities like NAHS, SACAC, RED CROSS all of which i had a leadership position in. do you guys think i have a chance for the FBM major?
I’m applied to the one year FBM program. I’m from Washington, DC. I wish everyone the best!
