I’m a senior in high school and was wondering if any fashion merchandising management major could tell me my chances of getting in for fall 2015. I have a 3.22 unweighted gpa, a 1910 on my SAT, and wrote my essay about interning at Liberty Fairs (a menswear fashion trade show company), being the costume manager of a laguardia high school production, and making the logo for a brooklyn restaurant. I’m really nervous about whether or not my gpa will put a damper on my chances or not and was wondering if someone could help me since decisions won’t be out until at most april.
Don’t worry, you’re in good standing!! FIT does not look at your unweighted GPA, unless you applied to the Presidential Scholar’s Program. What is your weighted GPA? Sounds like you have great experience and a handful on your resume. Involvement is important, which I am happy to see that you were!
Wait correction my weighted gpa is 3.22
To be honest, 3.2 just makes the cut. The SAT scores help but FIT does not look into them, however you do have a lot of experience already, if you wrote a solid essay you should be fine!
Did you apply?
Did you get in
I got wait listed
