The Parsons Challenge is, in its simplest terms, to make three pieces and then put them into words.

You have to be creative Parsons is very creative, are you an international student, are you a U.S. citizen?

International students do not need to take the SAT.

But it is more beneficial to apply for the test around 1800.

Since I happen to have a student applying to the school right now, your question is as follows:

First, the language standard required by the school is a benchmark, that is to say, as long as you meet the requirements of the TOEFL, then your one will meet the requirements of the school, after all, it is only a language test, and the school requires to ensure that the student can understand the teacher's teaching after arriving at the school, otherwise it will be very painful...

Second, it can clearly tell you that the school you choose can be said to be the top design school, Parson, Rhode Island, etc., these colleges can be said to be the Harvard of design. But one thing I can tell you very clearly is that this kind of college does not require students to provide GRE scores, after all, you come to school to study design, not to engage in subjects such as mathematics, engineering, and literature.

But then again, if you have a GRE in this kind of institution, it can be regarded as an extra insurance for your application for admission, after all, the GRE is a test for graduate students in American colleges and universities, which can reflect a student's academic level and logical ability. Depending on the individual's ability and time, the test will be taken if you can. The higher the grade, the better.

Thirdly, about GPA, I don't know what major you have in your undergraduate science? Is it design? Industrial design?

Graphic design? Interior design? Costume design...

GPA is very important in the eyes of Lao Mei, whether it is design or ordinary. Because GPA is a comprehensive reflection of the results of your four years of learning, is a reference to very scientific data, you learn well in four years, then your GPA is high, you do not learn well in four years, then your GPA is not high, so don't underestimate GPA, it is best to be able to be above, this is the bottom line... The same higher the better.

Finally, and what I think is the most important, the work!! You are applying to a design school, majoring in design. So how do you reflect your level and ability?

Opus... This school should have very clear rules, generally 10-15 works, which can be electronic files, but... I personally recommend making it into a booklet.

Some, find a good printing company. There should be a master and a secondary in the work, the main is your professional work, and the second reflects your artistic accomplishment. . . I have a lot of students here who have applied for works that have been left for me as souvenirs, and now this student is also working on works.

Good luck.

Parsons is definitely the top school in the fashion industry, admission is quite difficult, my classmate Qingmei graduated, 2 years of work experience, CCTV fashion design silver award was rejected by Parsons, she finally went to the Fashion Institute of Technology. However, it is still recommended that you try it, this kind of thing has an element of luck, but it is recommended to apply for a few more schools, parsons, fit, risd, saic, pratt are difficult to apply, scad, fidm is relatively easy, these are the top and relatively good clothing colleges in the United States.

In addition, the portfolio is the top priority, the admission is not mainly based on this, just sketch color these works are absolutely not enough, the school needs clothing design or other aspects of design works, parsons, fit need finished clothing **, so it is recommended that the landlord prepare a portfolio first.

English less than 92 will not be admitted... The landlord said that he couldn't even understand **... 92 IBT is still hard... Personally, I think the landlord should not be in a hurry, according to your current conditions, you can't meet the requirements of Parsons.

It is recommended that the landlord solve the problem of high school diploma first, I think it is still possible to spend money to buy it in China, and it is easy to do things with money in China, but if it is known by the United States, you may never be able to study in the United States... I hate cheating very much, and the landlord weighs it well. As a side note, Parsons requests that domestic transcripts must be certified by World Education Services...

It is almost impossible to change the results and cheat.

In addition, you need to solve the problem of IBT and portfolio first.,You can't pass the language test.,Without a portfolio.,None of the schools mentioned above can go to.。。。

In addition, if other conditions really can't pass, give you a school AAU, this... As long as you pay the money, you can get on.

PS: I did my MFA in New York.

About Parsons

1. Parsons' EA is generally issued from December 10 to the time before the Christmas holiday in the United States. Theoretically, you will be notified by email regardless of whether you are accepted or not. The grades of the third year of high school and the graduation certificate need to be submitted later.

2. All students who fail to meet the TOEFL IELTS test will need to submit their language scores later even if they are admitted. Or apply to an ESL language course at Parsons.

There is no EA for FIT1 and FIT, and November 1 is the cut-off date for FIT spring admission.

2. To apply for FIT, you must have a WES certified transcript, and it is only after FIT has received and reviewed the WES certified transcript that you will be asked to submit the materials in this aspect of your portfolio.

3. Theoretically, if you complete the submission normally according to the application process, the FIT should also be available from mid-December to before the Christmas holiday.

About the choice of two schools.

1. First of all, these two schools are the top fashion schools in the United States, and they belong to the same sector.

2. In terms of emphasis: Parsons is 10 points for design and 9 points for handicraft. FIT is 9 points for design and 10 points for handicraft. So in fact, from the teaching aspect, it is not very possible to completely influence your choice.

3. Cost: The one-year tuition fee for Parsons undergraduate is more than 4w dollars (25w yuan a year), and the tuition fee for one year of FIT undergraduate is about US dollars (10w yuan a year), so the net tuition fee for four years of undergraduate study will be 60-70w yuan. If you are at the level of a "local tyrant", then you can pass this reference factor directly.

If you are not, and your parents are saving money for you to go abroad, only from the tuition fee, I also recommend you to choose FIT.

4. Other resources, including work internships, unique teaching resources (designers from big-name companies give lectures), these resources, the two schools have their own advantages.

I applied to Parsons last year, and I was going to study fashion design and got an offer. But in the end decided to go to St. Martin, hoping that my experience you can use.

Parsons is a hardcore school in the industry, but the people at that school are either rich or expensive, so you have to make sure that your family has super money to support you. The dollar is now depreciating, and the tuition fee has only increased for a long time, probably about 500,000 yuan for all the expenses together. Don't listen to the agents and tell you about the tuition fees or anything.

Most of the Chinese in Parsons are from Taiwan, and there are relatively few mainland students.

The most important thing for the school is the portfolio, TOEFL score, and letter.

The portfolio requires not only a strong foundation, but also some of your own works, such as the things you design, the portfolio should be beautifully packaged, and then burned into a CD

A letter is not something that can be written by a casual school class teacher, and it is required to be at least a letter written to you by a well-known (casual person is absolutely not allowed) big names in the industry.

The minimum TOEFL score requirement is 90 (IBT).

In terms of cultural classes, you can't be too inferior, and generally schools can give a "fake" report card.

I still hope you can think about it, after all, the money spent over the years is not a small amount, and I think that the undergraduate design course should have a good foundation, most of the effort depends on yourself, each school will not be very different in terms of basic courses, TOEFL is also you have to work very hard, after all, this is not everyone can take the test (not excluding you are a little genius) The value of the real parsons personally feels useful when you form your personal style.
