<p>I can only share what I have heard from respective grads from these schools.</p>
<p>Pratt is very artsy and not commercial. This might seem good, but it does seem to lack practical skills. I do LOVE the Pratt compus. They are the only school among these three to have a campus.</p>
<p>As for internships, both Pratt and SVA have strong connections. Don’t know about Parson’s connections. I would think that Parson’s would have connections with the fashion industry but they would not be as strong for other majors.</p>
<p>SVA is considered to provide the most commercially oriented skills.</p>
<p>Honestly, I would visit each school and speak to the students. It is important to check out student work too and to meet with the career services office and ask what companies recruit there and what their connections are.</p>
<p>SVA doesn’t have as many undergrad major choices at that of Pratt or Parsons. However, what they do have is considered quite good. I would recommend that you check out my visits to both Pratt and SVA in the college visit forums. The Pratt posting was done about 7 years ago, so it could be a bit obsolete. The SVA posting was relatively recently done.</p>
