How is FIT viewed outside of New York?

I’m a freshman in college and am considering transferring to FIT after my sophomore year for either fashion merchandising or advertising and marketing communications. I’m wondering if anyone knows how FIT is viewed if I wanted to get a job outside of New York at some point? Like on the West Coast?

I am a freshman in FIT’S fashion merchandising program and we have a LOT of students who come to study from the west coast (California, Arizona, etc.) FIT is a internationally recognized college, and everyone who traveled from the west coast were passionate about getting in for all different types of majors. I see it as, if you want to go for fashion and are passionate for it, there’s no other place than FIT.
