We just got our son to school, and now it's our daughter's turn. I came to loathe the "The Essays that got me into Harvard, Yale, Stanford...." videos. First the kids had no idea what role the essays played in the process. It may have been more important that they were a woman applying to a physics department that currently was 75% male. Or maybe it was they planned to continue their study of cello along side being seen English major, and the school orchestra was graduating 4 cellists. There are so many factors in the process, factors you students have no control over, that it's hard to tell what made or possibly broke the deal. All that said, this was a well put together video. You were very humble, and nothing in your portfolio was earthshaking. What it was, though, was mature. You had a plan, and you stuck to it. You were prepared to both show and discuss every piece of the portfolio. It was comprehensive and thoughtfully assembled. Thank you, I'll make sure my daughter watches.

Hey can you help me out and please answer my questions, I'd be so so thankful! ❤ - 1) how do we have to send our portfolio? In person or digitally? Coz im from Sweden and I wanna apply to FIT and also how can students apply from abroad? 3) where can I find all the questions and tasks for the fashion design major that we need to do in order to get in? 2) does FIT give scholarship to international students? 3) Do we have to give an interview in person before we get in coz I don't live in new york so do I have to travel over there just to give an interview in person in order to get in? 4) do they send acceptance email if we do get in? And how to send all the money? 5) I took Arts stream for my 11th and 12th grade ( which had subjects like geography, English, history, political science, fine arts, multimedia and fashion designing) so I didn't have math and I wanna apply to go to FIT next year so I will have to give my SAT exam and since I didn't have math, my scores in SAT for math and science probably won't be good so will I still have chances to get in FIT even if my sat exam score is low? Is SAT exam necessary? . I know its really long but im just looking for some answers and wanna be sure before apply. I REALLY HOPE YOU REPLY, THANKS 🙏❤
