The Art Institute Offers a Scholarship Competition for High School Seniors with a Passion for Fashion
Deadline to enter is Friday, November 21.
Santa Ana, CA, November 19, 2008 --(PR.com)-- High school seniors who dream of a career in the fashion industry can compete in The Art Institutes Passion for Fashion Competition for the opportunity to earn a full tuition scholarship to study fashion at The Art Institute of California - Orange County.
"Many students have raw talent and a full tuition scholarship could help them learn the skills they need to pursue a career in fashion," said Mary Ann Gale, Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing & Management Academic Director. "Seniors about to graduate have grown up watching reality shows like Project Runway and this competition is their opportunity to see how they match up against their peers."
The Passion for Fashion Competition was created to encourage and reward young fashion talent. Two grand prize winners will be selected to receive a full tuition scholarship to study at a participating Art Institutes location. One winner will be selected from each of the following categories: (i) Fashion Design and (ii) Fashion Marketing & Merchandising and Retail Management.
In addition to a full tuition scholarship, the grand prize winning student in each category will receive an all-expense- paid trip to New York City for Fashion Week in February 2009, a "meet and greet" at Seventeen Magazine's offices and lunch with staff at Seventeen Magazine.
The deadline to submit entries to The Art Institute of California - Orange County is Friday, November 21, 2008. To be eligible to enter, a student must be a high school senior scheduled to graduate in 2009.
