I don't plan on going to the FIT but I still watched the whole video!

I have no intention of going to FIT but still watched the whole video and loved hearing about your experience!

Hey babes! You asked, so here it is! If you have any more major-related or general questions feel free to comment and I'll be sure to answer them! :) x

amazing video! I could totally relate to that first year-fashion design student-crying calling mom-want to drop out feeling. lmbo so much so I did a whole video on it haha. I really enjoyed hearing about your experiences and am looking forward to more videos!

you've made me want to be a fashion student so much! it's crazy how different your experience of college will be for me in the UK. ly Diana x

That's so awesome that you went after your dreams and worked super hard! I have always loved your sense of style, so I'm sure you are going to go far! I don't think I'll ever be a fashion designer, but it was still super interesting to hear about your experience! :)

Really did love this! Sharing your whole experience! I'm still in high school, and I love Fashion & being Creative, I'm still undecided on on my career paths but I know Fashion is one of them. Also love your sweater it was definitely very unique!

I appreciate videos like this because I think it helps guide people pursue their passion ☺️

So interesting to hear about your experience and education! What you do is so interesting! I wish I could have gone to school for fashion design!

Thank you!!! This was an amazing video with a lot of info and it made me more confident!

Diana! I loved hearing about your experience. I can tell you are super passionate about what you do and you have real talent girl! Loved seeing your projects, I'm absolutely in awe! 😻

Amazing video ! You have such a nice and calming voice .I love that sweater . I really like the design . I'm a fashion business student . Very interesting and fascinating video.

Love the sweater you made! I would totally buy it! 😍

Loved watching this! I didn't go to FIT, but my older brother's wife (who was like a big sister to me growing up) was a student there and she sold her hand-sewn clothes for a while. She mostly does interior design work now, but her creative spirit really influenced me in life. I thought of going to FIT after my early college experience inspired me to change directions, but went to trade school instead. Still wonder what it'd have been like if I'd gone though! Love your vids Diana, and that sweater is pure amazing. Cant wait to see what you continue to create!

I'm actually looking for fashion schools now for further studies. So this video was really helpful. Thanks a bunch!

ahhh I love your music taste. I'm sensing your a fan of "The Strokes" since you use many of the members music in your videos!!

So inspiring!

I can't believe I didn't realize you were studying at FIT! That's amazing. I know this is such a helpful video for so many people! I would have loved this when I was looking at schools.

This is so helpful thank you I'm going to be a senior next year and really wanted to go to F.I.T lol still want to go after hearing the work load

So jealous you live so close to Manhattan lol! Sounds like an interesting program

SoOo helpful, thank you🙏🏽

cool video ❤️❤️ it was really interesting :))

You are an awesome person !

Thanks for the video!

thanks for the video! Loved it! I'm moving into FIT on the 20th! Idk if you're a partier lol, but do you know any party places that people from FIT typically go? I'm trying to party, but I know its obviously not a party school since it's not a typical campus. Haha thanks!

I am so happy I saw this video... I am currently a biology major (plan was to either become and ob/gyn or vet), and I've always wanted to do fashion design since I was young like elm. school but because of family reasons I chose to become a doctor (it's a stable career choice right lol) but these last two semesters have made me realize... I just don't want to disappoint my mom or fail. I dont have extra money for school I'm on full scholarship right now so... But I really want to do what I love. I am actually pretty good and I cant say I am good at many things. I have a lot of my designs up on my dorm wall and on the first week of school all these girls came into my room and they all were like why aren't you a fashion major, why are you doing bio lol...

I'm still deciding on want to do in my career path. But I was always interested in music, acting, dancing, fashion and science. I think I want to be in the entertainment industry because I have more experience and most of my hobbies involve with that but I also love fashion and I had a little phase where I wanted to fashion/interior designer and I was doing everything I can do to be the best I can be, I created my own pieces. As a kid science always fascinated me and everything about science interest me. My love grew when I went to a medical school and they had a whole display of real human body parts and the brain was one of them and found it so fascinating what the brain can do, and I want to be a Nero scientist, or some part of a job where I can study the brain. I'm in high school and I don't know what I want to do, what career path I want to take. I just want to make the right decision because I want to happy with my job and not get bored with it and not regret my career choice.

I loved this lmao

wow you go to the same school as kailee mckenzie! cool!

YOU SEEM LIKE A COOL PERSON...I WAS WONDERING IF YOU CAN COME UP WITH A DESIGN ON A REVAMP ON A GRADUATION GOWNS FOR WOMAN...

This video is great! thanks so much. I have a question you said you went into Fashion Design with out knowing anything and infant took sewing classes. did you really not know anything or you're saying like compared to other peoples amount of knowledge on it? because I've always loved Fashion Design but i'm always like oh I'm not a good drawer i cant design my own stuff cause of that or sewing in some cases so i was wondering how much you really knew before applying and sending in your portfolio and stuff? Thanks

Hey I have a question... when your doing your sketches, does it have to be like a collection of only evening gowns, or summer wear. Or are you allowed to just mix up any type of wear?

❤️

And how did you learn to do the drawing part? I live in New York and if you could help me I would definitely pay you if you can offer a few hours in a week to help me pit my portfolio together !!

Hey! I was wondering if there was anyway I could contact you other than the KZfaq comment section to ask a few more questions about FIT. I'm currently a senior in high school and really wanting to go into fashion design and I have my heart set on FIT. Thanks. 😊

Where’d you take the sewing class?

Hi I have a 3.5 gpa at one school and then a 1.6 gpa for 1 semester at another school..My high school grades were all A's and B's..do you think 1 bad semester of college is going to keep me from being accepted? Should I email them about it or no?

I’m a junior taking precollege at FIT, hoping to apply. Would you mind linking the facebook group of prospecting students in the comments?

Hey! So Im super nervous about getting in and the fact that i dont even know that much about sewing. Im from Atlanta, GA but I have yet to live in a city like Manhattan.. Im nervous about the change in lifestyle. Would you say it is a good one? And also what is the name of the facebook group you joined for applicants? Thank you!

For the sewing part, do you have to make a dress or what?

I am currently a Sophomore in high school, and I've wanted to go to FIT for a few years now. Is there anything I can do now in advance to help me in the future with the acceptance into this school? I've not yet been to New York sadly, I live in Missouri but I will visit in the next year. I also don't know exactly what I want to major in but I know it's something within the industry. But please if you know of anything I can do in advance do tell ! Thank you so much.

Ioved your video! was so helpful! what's the difference between AAS degree and BFA bachelor degree? how long is bachelor degree?

ok i have a question... first off its crazy how similar our stories are! We both were thinking about biology and a medical career but end up finding fashion design! But my question is is there a specialty for men clothing or something similar to that? I am very interested in making mens clothing but of everything i have seen so far its mainly dresses and skirts and things focused on women. i know the fashion design major is mostly women so it makes sense but i was just wondering

How do you search for FB groups because when I went on I didn't see anything?

Hi! Can you please tell me how much is the total expense for a year for a fashion design student at FIT? Will I be able to change my Major after two years?

Hi Diana, my name is Maggie^^Recently I also got accepted to FIT & I signed up do the Fall 2016 class!^^Im majoring in Fashion Business Management Semester 1 for 2 Years. Does that mean that I have that class for semester 1 & than have a different major class for semester 2 for 2 years? Also, I kinda want to major in Cosmetology & Fragrance for the last 2 years too...what do u personally think about that? Like would that be a good plan? Btw this is your last year @ FIT right?(since dis your senior year). Do u think FIT really helped u get ready to find a job in the fashion industry or not so much?/Do u feel ready? Sorry for all the questions & thank you^^

do you have to know how to sew??

you are beautiful

Can I ask , I am from India , I would want to join in 2018. Does it cost much , like any charges for staying in dorm and monthly fee , is there a part time job and can I get a scholership though I am not American ?

do they give scholarships?

what is AAS degree then? Can I just take AAS degree and not take bachelor?

Why did you take 9 classes tho O_o that’s too much especially for the fashion design students they already get a lot of work in general you were asking for death 😭

Did you really not know anything because I legit have no real experience??!?!
