i'm going into my senior year of high school and want to pursue fashion merchandising, i want to stay in the northeast because i'm from CT and don't want to go very far from home, no more than 3 hours. i have a 3.4 gpa and dont want a very tiny school.

Sorry I don't know a more specific answer, but I definitely recommend the College Board's search engine. Go to http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/index.jsp. This tool will allow you to search by location, major, size of school, and any other factors you are interested in.

Hi, I’m looking for a fashion design/ merchandising school in FL, I’m really considering IADT but I’m not reading excellent things about it. Can anyone please recommend any other good schools in FL?
Or what are your thoughts in IADT?? PLEASE HELP!

I would really appreciated it!!!

If you seriously want to go places with fashion design, forget FL. You have to get into one of the major design schools or you are going nowhere but the shop floor of the local department store.

What are some good colleges for fashion merchandising and what are the requirements to get in?

I want to work with fashion. I was thinking of being buyer for a store but im not sure exactly what I want to do yet. But to get into a good school for fashion what are the requirements? Like what grades do you need and are there certain classes or internships you need to get in? And also what are some good schools?

Most colleges that offer fashion merchandising are art/fashion institutes that require portfolios to get into.

That said, there are some “normal” colleges that offer good programs. If you are unsure of portfolio stuff– Academy of Art University has a 100% admission rate and FIDM has a fairly simple portfolio.

Fashion Merchandising? Art School?

admin — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 16:34:12 +0000

I'm currently a junior at a competitive university with a major in both economics and management. I was interested in applying my business knowledge to the fashion industry. I'm not very artsy… never really did sketches and I don't have a portfolio, but I'm pretty good with colors and textiles and I'm a fast learner. I was wondering if there was a grad program or should I get my MBA and then go back to art or fashion school? Are there programs for people like me?

If you want to work in the business of the fashion industry, your business degree will probably be sufficient. And an MBA is one of the most valuable graduate degrees you can have when considering the return on your investment.

I'm a graduate of Indiana University and there is a fashion merchandising program there. While a student at IU, lots of merchandising companies, like major department stores, did lots of recruiting at the business school. Unless you are really sure of what graduate school in a fashion or art program will do for you, it seems much wiser to continue your business education and make your path into fashion through that route.

which school is better for fashion merchandising?

admin — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 19:39:07 +0000

I applied to the following six schools for fashion merchandising and i was just wondering which school would be the best school since the fashion industry is so competitive.

-Drexel University (accepted)
-University of Rhode Island (accepted)
-Philadelphia University (accepted)
-Purdue (still waiting)
-Marist College (still waiting)
-University of Delaware (still waiting)

I purposely didn't apply to any art schools. I am really having a hard time figuring this out. I like them all pretty equally. Thanks!

The best way to find out info is to find a student. You can locate some contact information for Rhode Island universities here. http://www.collegereviewed.com/Rhode-Island-Colleges-Universities.html The students always seem to know what's up since they spend so much time on campus.

I want to go to school for fashion marketing/merchandising.Is it worth getting a degree in the area?

admin — Thu, 01 Jan 2009 06:20:11 +0000

I have a degree in Communications, a degree I never used. I ended getting work in accounting and sales. Now I'm interested in doing marketing/merchandising in the fashion industry. I have been looking into schools and programs but does anyone know if I need to have a degree in order to get a job in the fashion industry.

No you do not. Since you already have a BA, that already looks good. I would look into the job you wants requirements then see if you even need to go to more school.
