This program is designed to produce graduates with the highly desirable combination of creative flair and technical competence. This is achieved throughout the program by developing both creative ability and an awareness of technological and business applications.

The Fashion Arts Diploma Program is a two-year program. In both years (nine months each year), classes consist of 24 hours of class instruction and a minimum 6 hours of Directed Study per week. In general, it is necessary for students to complete the entire program over a two-year period to maximize the scope and depth of study in this highly structured and comprehensive program. Classes are offered 3.5 - 4 days/week, 9 am to 5 pm. A Fashion Arts Diploma is awarded to those who complete this program. Graduates can transfer credits to other design programs based on transcript/portfolio strengths.
