Hi Fashion77!
fashion77
Hello!
I agree you have a really interesting story to tell and I like that you have selected programs in NYC given your fashion industry interests. I think both Columbia and NYU could be good fits for you- and I agree that your fashion background is going to add some diversity to any program. I can see Yale also. I'd add UCLA to the list and possibly Cornell Johnson and another way to really distinguish yourself might be to consider a program like HEC Paris. You have a really interesting background and it is important that you tell your story well to gain maximum traction from it- if you'd like to know more about how we could help you position yourself please use this link to set up a free consult with us: https://stratusprep.com/free-consult/
