Hey! I’m 12 almost 13 and struggling in school. I want to be an interior designer so I am just looking and doing ALOT. Of research. And this video really helped. I wanted to see how the rooms and the education was, and now I know from this vid. Thanks and have a blessed day!!⭐️
awe i’m so glad this helped!!! i’m planning on doing a few more videos about my time there but if you have any specific questions feel free to comment them and i’ll try my best to answer them! -ken
Tbh as an international student I'm really looking forward to apply to parsons after my High school bcz i really love nyc it's one of my goals to live there but I'm really nervous bcz no one in my family ever went out of our hometown for studies and living in a wild city like New York all alone is a task in itself:)!!
it really is but if you’re this excited for it i have a feeling you might enjoy it a lot!! good luck -ken
parsons has been my dream school since 6th grade and i have not once chnaged my mind about wanting to go there. this video helped me a lot thank u so much for just talking about how it is overall! i hope u the best in whatever u choose to do!
of course!! i’m so glad this helped 🥰 -ken
This came at the perfect time. I just committed!!
ahhhh yay congratulations!! so happy this could help! i’m sure you’ll love it ☺️ -ken
Thank you so much for making this, its super helpful!! looking forward to more videos like this:)
of course!! so glad it could help :) -ken
thank you for making this !! im going to parsons this fall and this was super helpful
ahhh so glad it helped!!
Hello! I’m 13, almost 14 and I’ve wanted to be a fashion designer since I was 9 and I’ve always been doing lots of research on how to design clothes, and how to become a fashion designer. I’ve wanted to live in NYC and go to Parsons for a long time but I’ve never really known how hard it was! Thank you for this video!!
could you make a video about the different atmosphere of each dorm? im coming from a small town, looking to see which dorm might be the best fit for me
hi there! since i have been there/with the pandemic they have changed staff as well as what dorms are upper or lower classmen so i feel like my opinion or advice wouldn’t be very beneficial since basically it’s all changed.
typically the all freshman dorm (it use to be stuy but i’m not sure now which one it is) is pretty poppin and a great way to meet people. they also are opening a brand new one that would be probably the nicest as far as physical space with kerrey hall being second nicest.
I'm trying to figure out if parsons is the right school for me. My mom attended parsons in the 80's and has made all the same points you made with the campus and what not. I love New York city and have visited since I was a little girl because I live so close. I also am not a very social sort of football team spirit sort of person haha (I hate high school football games), so I don't think I would mind being in a school like this. Ah! I love the whole idea of the first year and everyone takes the same classes (my mom said freshman year was her favorite year by far). I have to apply to colleges next year and am going to be working on my portfolio more this year!
wow this all sounds amazing! so glad you're doing your research! best of luck to you with your portfolio - ken
my first year will be this fall! can you recommend some teachers for first year students or warn me of any teachers to avoid?
This was a super helpful video!! I have a question. Given that Parsons doesn’t have a huge campus that you can walk around in (I understand it’s because of its location) do you ever feel like you miss the big campus experience? Are there aspects to the Parsons life that you wouldn’t get from a university with a large campus or sports clubs etc...?
Also, are there good options to earn extra money working part-time? Sorry for hounding you w questions 😬
Thanks ❤️
hi there!!! i definitely feel like i “missed out” on the big campus experience which was one of the hardest parts about my first year for me. i felt a huge sense of fomo watching all my friends from back home go to tailgates and large house parties but quickly realized i liked the mature nature of city bars and clubs anyway so it didn’t both me after a while. (plus i went to visit some friends at other colleges and once you’ve been to one state school party you’ve been to them all in my opinion)
as for jobs there are a lot of different opportunities! the new school offers part time student jobs to students who qualify for work study, many businesses in the area have flexible shift hours for students, and with a lot being remote now you can get many gigs that way! internships are also a great way to make extra money and gain experience. i typically worked 2-3 jobs a semester on top of my 15-18 credit course load (sometimes tough and left for little social life but worth it in my book) don’t be afraid to ask local businesses if they’re hiring and upper classmen if they know of anything once you get settled in!
hope this helps :)

Well done. Do they still have dorms on Union Square West?
I'm doing rmcad online courses. 😊
SOO BASICALLY WHAT SHOULD I GO WITH AS I AM IN 12 SO CAN I APPLIED FOR THIS INSTITUTE AFTER 12 OR NOT???
Is it easy to transfer from Parsons to a normal university's art program?
Do you have any tips for applications at the school
Also did you give the SATs and can students get in without that ?
This really helped me a lot!!! Do you drive a car in the city or do you walk or have a bike? What’s better?
i’m so glad!!! definitely no need to have a car itd be way too expensive to pay for a parking spot. i typically walked or took the subway everywhere with the occasional uber! -ken
Can you make video for fashion designing in parsons?🥺
hi there! i personally studied product design so don't feel like im the best person to give advice on that program BUT my roommate was a fashion major and has a youtube channel under her name Mattie Digiovanni if you want to check that out!
I am in the same boat u were right now. I’m scrabbling to create a portfolio!
omg best of luck! i know it's stressful but it will totally be worth it! -ken
@@KENHAN thank you so much!
I’m on,y 12 but no matter what I will go to parsons. I promise.
This video had great information! ❤️ I was wondering what made you decide the cost was worth it to going to Parsons?
hi there! i’m so glad this helped!! this is a great question and probably the factor i had to think about the most when it came down to making my decision. i knew at some point in my life i wanted to live in new york city and the timing of doing that in my college years seemed like a great fit for me. new york is expensive regardless of when you come and i really counted on becoming an RA which i knew would help subsidize my cost out of pocket for living in new york city. i also heard that graduating from parsons as a design student holds a lot of weight when getting jobs in that field because of the schools standing those two factors are inevitably why i chose to come!
Do you need previous knowledge of arts to be accepted into parsons????
Hey I have a question about Parsons as a grad student.. I was accepted and committed for Fall 24.. are you really only supposed to attend the school if you’re getting at least 30% scholarship?
This was literally so helpful, omg. I'm a rising senior in high school and I'm applying to their fashion design program in a few months! I'm super excited, but also very nervous I won't get in! I'm doing the Intro to Fashion Design online summer course, so I'm hoping that will give me a leg up, but do you think you have any advice for applying and increasing my chances of getting in? Thank you!!! Again, this was so helpful!
i’m so glad!! i definitely recommend applying to other other colleges as back up (i did the same thing) just to be safe. i also think the summer program you’re doing will be beneficial! as far as applying just be yourself! they’re is nothing specific their looking for besides potential and passion for what you do! make sure to utilize the essay portion of each piece you submit this really allows them to see your intentions behind the piece and potential ways you want to continue to improve it!
did you get in?
@@ricky-ann7003 I did! We are in the zeemee together!
Hii I'm seventeen and from Iran ;so what does this university need ?? What cani do to increase my chance to get there?? Any online courses that I can take from here for example?? Pls help I am so confused
Hi I hope you answer this, I am 16 and I want to get into parsons, do you have any tips to give for application?
can you talk about how to become an RA once your at Parsons? Was it hard and like who should I talk to if I want to be an RA
hi there!! yes, i am currently filming a video all about the process of becoming an RA + my responsibilities once i entered the role that i’m planning on posting this sunday or next!
but the best way to become an RA is get involved in your residence hall! join hall council, attend programs, talk to your HRE staff and floor RA! being a active community member helps show people you’re invested in creating a positive living environment for others as well! (if you don’t live in the dorms find friends that do and go with them or look on the schools website and find people who work in the HRE department and email them!)
Hi. Such an insightful video. I am an international student and did my bachelor's in architecture from one of the colleges here in Nepal. I wanted to study interior design at Parsons so, would you mind telling me about the availability of an assistantship if possible. Thank you!
I know it’s super private but there’s huge amount of money to pay… how
Hey i want to ask a question? N can you tell me I'm currently doing a diploma fashion degree of 1 year and now I want to apply for these colleges so should I apply for undergraduate course or am I an exchange student?
if you’re applying to move schools permanently apply for undergraduate courses but if you’re looking to just come for a semester apply as an exchange student. -ken
Do you think it’s possible to have a part time job while applying specifically as a fashion design major ?
yes most definitely! most all students i knew had 1 if not multiple part time jobs regardless of their major! -ken
@@KENHAN thank you so much !
So I’m getting out of the marines and I want to attend parsons, do you know anyone who is prior military who goes there
i personally don't know anyone at school that is prior military but i do know they have a department that helps connects people who have been! - ken
Hey can I apply for post graduation program in fashion design as I have completed graduation from non design field please consider replying.
I don't know a lot of specifics on the post grad/grad level courses. I'd imagine you'd need to have all of the skills one would learn in an undergrad fashion program so if you submitted a portfolio with pieces you've made I think you'd stand a really good chance of getting in, but if you're looking to learn everything from the ground up I would suggest starting at a different level. They also offer some online certificate programs relating to fashion as well! -ken
is it expensive? What can I do to save?
it’s very expensive! i applied for scholarships and financial aid + took out student loans. also worked several jobs while attending to be able to afford it -ken
Do you work is it a challenge doing school and work ?
i personally enjoyed working while in school but that’s probably because i loved my jobs. most people i know manage to do both very successfully! -ken
Okay ....so first of all ur video is so Informative..👏👏😁😁
And I have a ton of questions....
Like,
1) are scholarships available for international students??
2) do u have like a fixed timetable??
3) does Parsons help u get a job ?
4) are short courses available??
5) do u need to know to draw and be really creative to be in Parsons?
6) how severe is the fees?
7) does Parsons have events like fashion shows and programs where u design a specific dress and u put it on models and the models do the cat walking before everyone ??(I'm really sorry , I know u're not a fashion design student but if u know about this pls answer)
8) do u get to roam around between lectures?
9) how do u rate the interior designs of Parsons?
10) have I asked too many questions??
Sorry!!😇😇🙃🙃
Tnx
hi there!! glad this helped you!!
i’m going to try to briefly answer all of your questions but am planning on doing another school video so can go into more depth on answers there soon!
1) yes as far as i know every student is eligible for scholarships
2) every semester you pick your classes based on what requirements you need and it is a set weekly schedule for that semester
3) no
4) from my knowledge all courses are offered only on a semester basis (15 weeks) im not sure if that is long or short to you
5) you do not to be the best “drawer” to succeed at parsons but i would say naturally being a creative problem solver or just overall creative person is quite literally essential.
6) this all depends on your personal financial situation so i’m not sure how much guidance i can provide. all expenses are publicly available online
7) i have never heard or seen a fashion show where people actually model the dresses at school for class. most people bring in photos of people wearing it or put it in a foam form for their finals
8) that all depends on how you set up your schedule/when your required classes are offered. i’ve had times where i have hours in between classes and other times where i go straight from one class to another
9) i know several people who studied interior design at parsons and even have personally taken a few interior design classes. i can’t really give it a rating cause i haven’t experienced it nor have another interior program to compare it to. i will say it is a smaller major/program/focus compared to others which has its benefits and hurdles as well
@@KENHAN thankuuuu😘😘
Sister good bless you please understand the purpose of your life please next reaction this link surah haqqah voice Abdul Rahman,,, sister best voice
is parsons really have lots of assignment?
yes, most classes have expected deliverables that are due every class + you are typically expected to be working on several larger projects due either at the end of the semester or the midway point.
Should I be buying a laptop or a tablet?
i recommend a laptop! they have more capacity to hold design programs and software we use daily! -ken
Hello i kind of have some questions and i dont live in the us or know anyone from there, can i email you to ask some simple questions if you dont mind!
Of course, it's interesting but Where could I find the money for this shit?? 🥲
