Why FIT

This board is so slow. I was wondering why you are choosing or chose to attend FIT over other fashion schools.

I’ve had seven internships in the industry. The tuition is dirt cheap. The people you meet here are incredible. The real question is, why not FIT?

@ Artsyfartsy96 The OOS tuition isn’t dirt cheap. What is your major?

OOS tuition is about $20,000/year without housing. I’m an in-state student living at home so thankfully this was a cheaper option compared to the other colleges I applied to. I am a FBM major.

My daughter thought about FIT when she was thinking about a major in Fashion Merchandising.

Coming up with reasons “Why FIT” is probably easier than “Why NOT FIT”, paticularly for residents of NY-- it’s part of SUNY.

But it’s like saying “Why CIA” for culinary majors. Lots and lots and lots of reasons why in my book. I won’t give them to you, but I would have no trouble with this essay-- and I’m a 59 year old math teacher, not someone in the fashion industry.
