As a fashion student I had to complete a separate application for the program, which was not too difficult. However, for my application to get into the college itself I just focused on my SAT scores and having a personal essay that really said something about me.

Do really well throughout your four years of high school because Marist is a test optional school. They believe that one test should not decide whether or not you get in. Also do a lot of community service/ hold leadership positions and write a good and creative essay!

“I recommend that students should really show their trueJun 06 2012Other
I recommend that students should really show their true self when submitting their personal response essay. Even though they offer you choices to write about, I chose to write about my experiences throughout my life to that point, and felt that along with my exceptional grades, further increased my chances of getting into the school. I also recommend attending the Summer PreCollege Program if they offer a program in your area of interest! I attended summer going into my Senior year, and I believed attending the program put me at a slight advantage over other students, because Admissions and the Fashion Department had an idea of what my capabilities were!
