I have graduated from college and the fashion job market is pretty stark. I do not mind paying my dues through an internship, but all of the ones that I have found require that you receive some kind of credit from an accredited institution.
Does anyone know how to go about getting credit as a grad? I live in NYC and the possible routes I’ve tried at the community colleges cost up to $1000, which I can’t really afford to be paying to work. Any advice or direction would really help. I’d just like some kind of experience.
Thanks so much!!

Thank you Alyssa for setting it straight! I cannot tell you how many days as a fashion intern that I did not eat all day let alone spent nights in the closet checking out racks of samples. I saw a few comments of other members who have successfully interned after graduating from college. Does anyone know how to get around the necessary requirement to receive some kind of school credit if you are no longer a student in NYC? Thanks again...your post was so awesome!
