The teachers are all well experienced and have been in the industry for a minimum of ten years before teaching. They all held high positions related to the fashion industry so they bring their knowledge into the classroom. They give hands-on activities that occur to best prepare you before entering the real-world.

    A very demanding workload. Full of talented students and professors. The best school for fashion in the US.

    The Fashion Institute of Technology is a well accredited school in New York City. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in either Fashion Merchandising Management or Fashion Design as those are the best majors at the school.

    FIT seems like the best fit for me. No pun intended. Its one of the top design schools in the country.

    The Fashion Institute of Technology is an incredible school with endless possibilities. The majors are close together so you can take classes from other majors that are very relevant to your studies. FIT has the best faculty; all teachers are required to have industry experience.

    It's great for anyone wanting to go into the fashion industry, especially being placed right in New York. There are tons of opportunities everywhere especially through the school. Be prepared that this is not your typical college but it is totally worth it!

    The Fashion Institute of Technology is a place where you are free to express yourself. You are jumping right into your major, so you're already getting a head start and making as many connections as you can possible. You're in the heart of Manhattan, and have access to some of the amazing places on Earth; take advantage of that.

    The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) is a great place for students to focus on specialized art and fashion subjects while learning the basic general education courses to prepare them for the future. I am a Fashion Merchandising student and I love my experience at FIT. The course work will challenge you but will also prepare you with the necessary resources to work in the fashion industry.

    Their fashion programs seem great though I am not in one. The Fine Arts program seems a little less great than I expected it to be. Some teachers constantly bring up the possibility for the students to apply to other better art schools.

    The school is a great school if you live, eat, sleep, breathe fashion. The teachers are really knowledgeable in their fields and everyone on campus is fairly nice. Expect to work hard, but the hard work will pay off.
