Visit us! Visiting the campus for yourself gives more insight to the walls and halls of our school better than any pamphlet, website, or\u00a0 word of mouth ever could.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Heres why:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">1. The Info Session<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Admissions offers info sessions several times a week. Here&#8217;s what happens. You&#8217;ll check in with the Admissions office, grab\u00a0a packet chock-full of literature about FIT, and then be directed either to the Haft Auditorium or the Katie Murphy amphitheatre. There, you&#8217;ll watch a short video about our school from the viewpoints of our students and faculty.\u00a0Then,\u00a0you&#8217;ll learn about our majors, tuition, housing, and\u00a0how and when to apply.\u00a0 The info sessions are about 45 minutes long. \u00a0Afterward, you can politely pick the brain of one of our Admissions counselors with all your burning questions. And then&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">2. Take A Campus Tour!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">After the info session, you can take a student led tour around the campus.\u00a0 Student tour guides will happily answer your questions and share their experiences with you.\u00a0 When I was a student tour guide, I really enjoyed helping prospective students and their parents solidify their decisions to move forward with our application process.\u00a0 You&#8217;ll visit classrooms and labs, student lounges, the fitness center, our dining hall, our campus Starbucks, a residence hall, the library, and if you&#8217;d like, you can&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">3. Visit the Museum at FIT!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">At FIT, we have a museum\u00a0on campus complete with breathtaking exhibits, dim lighting, and security guards!\u00a0\u00a0The current exhibits are\u00a0Elegance in an Age of Crisis: Fashion of the 1930&#8217;s and Trend-ology. Our new exhibit Beyond Rebellion: Fashioning the Biker Jacket starts March 4th.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss it!<\/p>\n<p>Jaiah<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hands down, FIT is a great school.\u00a0 FIT is everything I imagined it to be and I am so happy that I cast my insecurities aside, applied, and got in.\u00a0 But don&#8217;t take it from me.
