well my major is fashion merchandising and basically ive been going to a community college for about 2 years doing nothing.

so i decided to do something about my life and applied for Brooks College. in high school they came and talked about the program and everything so this is basically the only college i know in S. Cali other than FIDM (my cousin went there, she doesnt recommend it.)

brooks college is a private school and you finish everything in 18 months. They have small size classes and internship programs and the people there are always around to help you. I visited the campus and it doesnt seem like a college at all though... my mom and i went there and she was just bothered by the fact that you finish everything in 18 months. she told me to think about it thoroughly. and I'm really not sure if this school is a place where i can really learn about fashion merchandising.

i was wondering if its better to go to a well-known school like Parsons or whatever,,,,or just save money and earn my degree in 2 years at Brooks?

and if anyone has heard anything about Brooks College... care to share?
i can only imagine,,,

don't go there. my friend went there for your major and she is not doing anything..not hired..so sad..but she went back to community college and transfer to a university

how about going to FIDM...much better than brooks college...PARSONS OF COURSE IS A GRET SCHOOL AND HARD TO GET INTO. JUST DON'T GO TO BROOKS

i'd also recommend something else. just because a place is faster doesn't necessarily mean it's better. it's all about school reputations and connections. shoot for bigger and better schools.
