Fashion Design, Evening/Weekend AAS

Follow these step by step instructions for a successful registration:

Step 1: Register for Semester 1 Major and Related Area Courses

For your first semester, you must register for a specific set of major and related area courses to follow the 6-semester evening/weekend sequence.  

Step 2: Register for Liberal Arts

In order to complete your AAS in three years, you should schedule one or two liberal arts courses per semester, for a total of eight courses over six semesters. If you have transfer credits you will need to take less liberal arts courses.  If you are placed into developmental classes you will need to take more liberal arts courses to earn your degree.

Each course section (meeting time) has a unique Course Registration Number (CRN) which is the four- or five-digit numbers listed in the first column of the Schedule of Classes (pdf version)

Print out the printer-friendly instructions below for your reference when you register.

Transfer Credits
To ensure that your transfer credits are applied to your FIT record, make sure that all final, official transcripts have been sent to Admissions, Room C139.

  • To check your transfer credits, please see your degree audit (DARS).  A degree audit is a computer-based assessment that shows the progress you’re making toward meeting your degree requirements. 
  • Any course granted as transfer credit will be printed with a “T” grade on your degree audit in the appropriate place for the requirement.  Degree audits are available in the Online Information System section of MyFIT.  Go to www.fitnyc.edu/DARS for full instructions.

Placement
Placement in English writing and Math is required for incoming students.

  • To check your placement status, please see your degree audit (DARS).  Go to www.fitnyc.edu/DARS for full instructions.
  • If you have not been granted appropriate transfer credit or submitted SAT or ACT scores or taken the FIT placement tests by June 17 you cannot register for your English, math, or science courses at this time.  Instead you should plan on registering for two courses in disciplines that don't requirement placement, like Social Sciences or History of Art.  
  • If your placement results require you to take developmental coursework— Educational and/or Math Skills courses— please note that this will be in addition to, and not part of, the required eight courses. 
  • The Placement website has the information you need to know about placement based on your SAT/ACT scores or the FIT Placement Exam.
