<p>i’m thinking of applying for costume design. how competitive is admission? anyone know anything about the program? ANY insight would be very much appreciated!
thanks!</p>
<p>its one of the most competitive in the country. What was your undergrad school and major? And have you designed for anything significant since graduation?</p>
<p>I guess by asking these things I’m turning your question into a chance thread =)</p>
<p>oh hey, i didn’t know anyone responded–the email went into my spam folder!</p>
<p>anyway i’m a senior at wash u in st louis. majored in fashion design, minored in art history. my resume is pretty full–designed and assisted on a few big/important shows…did some work in wardrobe…experience with fashion shows. good GPA and i’m sure my recommendations were very nice. my rendering, design and sewing skills are also strong (i think/hope!)</p>
<p>ok well thanks so much for responding! do you know anything else about the program? information online is sparse…their website is the only place i’ve found anything!!</p>
<p>I’m a big fan of off brand “what are my chances” type threads. This forum is always full of threads about PhD in physics and chemistry and MA’s in IR so when someone rolls out and ask “Hey, what about costume design?” is causes a collective double take.</p>
