Ivy League college? fashion?

Question

i'm in 8th grade and will soon be going up to 9th grade. I want to go in to a Ivy league and study becoming a fashion desinger, which college would suit it the most? also is FIT and UCLA a ivy league college?

Answer 1

Actually, Cornell University does have an undergraduate proram in apparel design.  However, I cannot speak for the other schools

Answer 2

FIT and UCLA are not, and I think what you're looking for is FIDM. It's not too early to find one near you and tour the campus. You'll get an idea of what exactly you'll be getting into, and if fashion design is really the path you're looking to travel. And, here's a link to the Princeton Review giving you an overview of what you should be doing to prepare for said vocation.

Answer 3

UCLA is not an Ivy League school. I don't know of an Ivy League school that offers fashion design.

Ivy League schools are all on the east coast and are:

in New York state: Cornell, Columbia

in Massachusetts: Harvard

in Conneticut: Yale

in Rhode Island: Brown

in New Jersey: Princeton

in Pennsylvania: University of Pennsylvania

..and that's it!

Answer 4

There are actually eight Ivy Leagues.

Harvard University

Yale University

University of Pennsylvania

Princeton University

Columbia University

Brown University

Dartmouth College

Cornell University

And none of those schools offer fashion design as a program.  Majoring in business, economics, or entrepreneurship would be good if you're looking to start your own fashion design company.  And those schools offer them.

Fashion design seems like a waste for education at a college.  You won't sell clothing based on what school you went to, you'll sell by the designing.
