Hello everyone, first of all thanks for creating this thread. Going thru all this has been very helpful for me. But still no one has answer that after paying the enrollment of 850euros to FDA, after how many working days did you guys got a confirmation reply from the college? coz im getting bit restless. And also once they prompt you to pay the enrollment fee, so finally it means that he/she has got the admission to the college and there wont be any cryptic evaluation or shortlisting candidateprocess pending.!
Rply to above queries would be appreciated. :) 
Ohh yes! im joining FDA next year sep. hope to see you there :)

Hi everyone, I have received acceptation at FDA and Florence Design Institute - they have basically the same admission process - .  Looking to do a 3 or 4 years program in Interior Design.  Could anybody who already is in one of these 2 schools give me any info about these 2 schools.  It is hard to tell which one would be best for interior design, in terms of program, teachers and international reputation.  I leave in the US so won't have a chance to visit there.  Thanks for you help!

Hi Guys,

Is anyone taking education loan? I am taking loan and the bank is asking for estimate which has to come from FDA. Does FDA help us in this process? If anyone have any information about this please revert me. 

Thanks

Hi everyone, I will be attending the interior design 1 year master's in January 2017. I know that the FDA can put you in touch with accommodation agencies etc., but I have been looking around for places myself as well. Has anyone had any luck finding a place or are people generally waiting to be put in touch with FDA contacts? I'm also looking for roommates if anyone is interested, thanks!

I'll be joining FDA for Masters in Interior Design '17 session. I applied late thus all my visa process and other formalities are still pending. Can anyone let me know that if I enroll myself this week, my admission fee submission is due this week, how long would it take for FDA to send me the acceptance letter and other documents?

With only 2 months left, would it leave me with enough time to get my acceptance letter in time and apply for visa after that? Or should I apply for September session instead?

Hi, 

I'm Edward from India , I'm planning to join FDA for industrial design in 2017 and would like to know if FDA has any kind of Accreditation , if yes where could I find it? 

I have searched a lot and haven't found anything 

Also is their certificate recognized by companies for job or other countries ? 

Thank you

Shobana Sridhar Écrit il y a 8 ans

Hii guys! 
I'm right now pursuing my interior design bachelor degree in Mount carmel College, Bangalore (India). And I really want to join Florence Design Academy. What do you think ups your chance of getting enrolled in the institute? Do you think an outstanding percentage at school-level will increase your chances? (Considering no CV and portfolio is presented to them) Thank you!

Edward G Écrit il y a 8 ans

Hi everyone,

Found this thread by luck while researching about Florence Design Academy. Super excited for all of those starting in January 2017!

I'm in the process of researching other schools, and also considering this school; however, if I start the Masters in Interior Design, it would be in September 2017.

I was wondering for the students starting in January 2017 - could you guys please update us on how the program is going once it starts? Would be a great way to see if the program is suitable for other students, and if it holds up to the reputation it has from the internet.

I hope you guys will consider doing so, and thank you very much in advance! Goodluck to everyone with their studies! :)
