Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The ratio between girls and guys at FIT can be overwhelming at times. In classes, it is easily recognized that there are more girls than guys, depending on the major. Either way, guy or girl, students should not get discouraged by this. If you're a girl, there are plenty of young, cute men (or women) in New York City that are looking for you, too. If you're a straight guy, there are plenty of girls at FIT from which to choose. If you're a gay man, take advantage of the gay culture within the Chelsea neighborhood that FIT resides.

A dating scene does not really exist at FIT. There are some guys and girls that date, but the majority of dating happens within the gay community. If you are a girl and can find a straight guy to date at FIT, that is a rare commodity, and you will often see awkward glances from your peers. If you come to FIT dating your high school sweetheart, then it's a perfect place to find your gay best friend.

The majority of the population at FIT are Fashion Major girls and gay guys. Most of the straight guys skateboard and smoke cigarettes and all hang around together so they're not very hard to spot. This school would be perfect for an attractive straight guy who loves superficial girls.

No Guys, Image Driven Girls

There are barely any guys here and most of the ones I've seen all hang together. There are many types of girls here but most people characterize the girls here to all be concerned about there appearance. Most just take pride in making in style outfits that are trending. It is a fashion school.

PEOPLE ARE SO ASIAN OR ITALIAN

You’ll find all sorts of stylies general as I said guys are more normal thru the blonds thru the most elegant and stylish, and girls either asian or italian believe it or not they look more eclectic, most likely like a man but all kinds, but most likely open the only thing just should took a little bit of italian so connect more quickly but everyone talks english.

Facts

Social Scene

It can be hard to find time to meet students outside of your major, with the exception of liberal arts classes and those students who live on the same floor in the residence halls. There is a lack of a social scene on campus, with few athletic events. Students establish a group of friends and tend to stick with that group throughout their years at FIT.

Hookups or Relationships?

A lot of girls on campus are in relationships, but not with guys from FIT. Girls: don't expect to meet the love of your life at FIT. Guys: if you're gay, your chances are far higher; if you're straight, FIT is full of hot girls.

Best Places to Meet Guys/Girls

FIT students are heavily involved in their schoolwork and/or working part- or full-time. If students do hit it off at school, it’s generally from meeting in class, the dorms, or during extracurricular activities. The top place to meet people from outside of FIT is at one of the bars or clubs in New York City. A lot of students at FIT are also friends with NYU or Pace University students.

Dress Code

There are no rules when it comes to dress at FIT. You will see hundreds of different styles on a normal day. The key is to know what looks good without trying too hard.

Did You Know? A lot of students find that they do not have time to date, whereas at other schools, college can be where you find your soul mate.
