Hello, I created this page to see if anyone has heard back from FIT in Korea. I know FIT NYC does the application review, and I wanted to see who did/did not get acceptance letters.
My friends got accepted to the NY campus on April 1st and I’m really nervous… I also want to know if anyone who applied to FIT Korea also heard something… Finger crossed?
@ulaninalu I’mm nervous too I’m debating if I should call the admission office but maybe I’ll wait until Wednesday haha
I emailed them and this is what they replied:
The review process for FIT Korea is experiencing delays currently in the FIT NYC admissions process.
We believe the results will be out late April or early May.
Guess we’ll need to wait till late April.?
omg noooo that sucks, the wait is already killing meee I’m wondering if I should call tomorrow and ask.
So I called FIT NYC and the guy on the phone was super nice, I told him I was applying to FIT Korea and he asked for my full name (since we don’t have the same student ID as FIT NYC applicants). He told me to wait while he made a phone call to see what exactly was happening (and he called a counselor at FIT Korea) and after holding for a while he told me the email of a specific counselor and told me to email him about when the letters were to be due (because he stated they have a different applicant process, even though the decision of acceptance is made by FIT NYC.)
@ulaninalu so I’m guessing the applicant process is different because we/they have to do extra stuff such as student visa’s and scholarships/financial aid packages. I emailed the counselor from FIT Korea but now I have to wait since the time difference is like 13+ hours so it’s like 1am in Korea now lol. I’ll keep u updated. I don’t have the details on whether or not mail was sent yet, and neither did the guy on the phone. There might just be a delay idk
I am applying as a transfer student for FBM so it’s prob going to take me longer to get something from FIT.
@xxstephq the wait is driving me crazy too haha? Wow he does seems super nice! I think there is a delay but still hope you’ll get their response soon! Thanks for getting me updated. I was pretty nervous when they said I’ll know the result by late April and early May cuz then I’ll need to pay the deposit of another school by May 1st in case I’m rejected. Hope they’ll realease the result around mid April? btw you are super nice too thank you!
still nothing yet…the wait is killing me, I tried looking around in social media and the internet and no one has posted anything about getting accepted yet
this thread is super helpful! i’m still waiting on my letter, too and it feels like i’ve been holding my breath forever! hopefully we get our decisions letters soon??
Yeah I think the decision process is really delayed. Hope we all can know the result before May?
Should I call FIT Korea? Do you think it would help?
They’re not responding to my email so idk, I’m so impatient lol
@xxstephq Well it’s better than just wait for their response and do nth I guess? I think you can give it a try
I GOT MY DECISION LETTER! IM ADMITTED AS A FBM TRANSFER STUDENT FOR KOREA HOLY SH-
I’m legit crying now omg nooo and I’m on my way to class now
I got it by email to be specific
Congrats!! I got my acceptance email today as well!
