Yea I'm in a similar situation, trying to get as much experience as I can early on. I'm attending the parsons intensive summer studies this coming summer and I'm planning on taking sewing classes asap. My grades are also similar to yours, but I'm not sure if I'm doing enough. Any information on how to build up a good foundation to applying to schools such as parsons or others would be extremely helpful. Thanks so much!! and my email is eleppo@gmail.com Hello!

However, I want to do something like marketing or management and not designing, illustration, photography, etc. I also will definitely need financial aid. I have some work experience writing for Vogue India, Haute Mimi International, Glossy and Liberating Style magazines, Models and Moguls, etc. Do you think that'll help my case to get in with financial aid? Oh, and I'm an Indian girl from Delhi. So considering I'm doing fashion marketing or something, will my essay still focus on art history and do I have to have a portfolio? Thanks a ton, Arushi pls. reply at my email fabblab@ gmail.com Parsons did a presentation at my high school this year but sadly, I wasn't able to attend it. This would help so much.

I would really like to go to Parsons for fashion design-it's my top choice. Currently I'm a junior in high school but just looking at other peoples portfolios and Parsons challenges makes me feel as if I could never get in. I definitely need to put more time into all of my drawings and I need to start learning how to properly shade and use different tools and take some classes. I'm so nervous and I'm unsure if I'd make it into Parsons. Is there anything specific that they really look at? And about the Parsons Challenge..what is it exactly? I've read it online on their website but it seems so vague. This is so inspiring! I would really like to go to Parsons for fashion design-it’s my top choice.

I have a complete portfolio for fine arts, including paintings,charcoal,pencil sketches. My question is what exactly is the parsons challenge? Can you please specify what you did, with the interstate cd cover. Also I will be a transfer student with more then 36 credits in liberal arts. Should I apply for undergrad aas or bfa? Thank you so much! & your blog is super helpful. Hey I’m very passionate about art and fashion design. I have a complete portfolio for fine arts, including paintings,charcoal,pencil sketches.
