Should i go to a fashion school for business if i want to become a designer?
-
ill be getting my associates in design in december but i want to then go into entrepreneurship to get my bachelors, but my teacher is telling me to go to FIT, but i don't know if i want to go there. i mean i feel like if go to a fashion school they will only guide me towards starting my own clothing line which is great because that what i want, but either way no matter where i go business wil always be business, and i think is better to not get to boxed in with the fashion world and learn outside by going into a more business school outside of fashion, what do you think? best answer gets 10 Pt's.

Answer:
Even those with a college (four-year) degree from an accredited program in art and design may have difficulty finding work in the fashion/art industry. It is supposed to be extremely competitive finding a job in the field. Please forgo those private overpriced For-profit tech schools such as 'fashion institute of technology', 'art institute', 'fashion institute of design' as they are merely out to 'make a profit' and ** course credits may NOT transfer to other schools ** so that you may not be able to apply those classes to another degree. You'd mentioned that you're getting an associate's degree in design and hopefully some or most of those classes will transfer to a state university. These consumer sites have negative posts by former students about those private $$ for-profit tech schools, and please heed the students' warnings: - http://www.ripoffreport.com - http://www.pissedconsumer.com - http://www.complaintsboard.com and can type into search. For accredited schools of art and design (and those schools may also offer business as a major, too): http://nasad.arts-accredit.org/ and can click "member lists" and then scroll down to the drop-down bar to click one's state of residence.
