FIDM definetly prepared me in building my character, my workmanship and my overall talents. I came to FIDM with aspirations which stemed from the talent I had and passion I had for visual design and event planning. I knew that art and design would always be a part of my life and FIDM helped me be able to keep that in my life and work in fields that include that type of work.FIDM also helped drive me to be more assertive in reaching for all my dreams. They helped me find my first internship while in school which turned to my first full time job! They connected me to my first interviews directly after college which ended in all 3 companies really wanting to hire me because I came across as VERY WELL prepared for those positions in Visual styling, Trend Forecasting and Marketing. In the end, I chose Marketing & Promotions because it encompassed Public Relations, which I enjoyed, and Event Planning. To this day I get to help plan large scale events, deal with RSVP systems, contact people in the fashion industry. I thoroughly enjoy and love my job! I do recommend that high school students who do want to go to FIDM know that they will need to work hard as a student and be proactive in connecting with the Advisors there who have the connections to the industry for interships and job opportunities after graduating. The great thing about FIDM is that those connections are always available for students and graduates of the school so take advantage of that! Also, don't assume that the projects are easy and do give your 110% on them. If you ever need anything or have concerns definetly talk to your advisors about it.They were a huge help for me and explaining to me my loans etc. Financial wise, FIDM is a school worth investing in and you would have paid that amount at any other school! Do your research and take a look at the website, go to the Open Houses like I did, talk to the graduates at the events and you will see that FIDM is awesome choice and I still keep in touch with them today!

commentThanks for such a good review!
I'll take into account this university
commentWhen I studied at university I wasn't the best student. I spent much time on games and it was fantastic. I graduated from it and decided to start streaming games. Such an interesting experience, tell you what. I liked it so much that I even bought Twitch followers by the link. Guys, try streaming too. You won't regret it.

commentThere are so much professions beside doctors and engineers. You can always follow your dream and be successful. I was fond of gaming and i decided to pursue it as my career. I started streaming on twitch. In beginning, I did not had much followers then a streamer suggested me to buy twitch followers. That was the only investment I had to do. Now I am living a happy life with my passion as my career.
