Week 11- Majors

This week we are talking about our majors. I am an Apparel Merchandising and Design Major with business and Italian minors. I chose to pick the merchandising route. I like business and I enjoy fashion. However, I have applied to Purdue University to transfer after this year though. I wont get to find out if I get in until after grades are submitted. At purdue i am applying to the Fashion Design school. Purdue's fashion school is ranked in the nation, I would like to have a job after graduation and from observing this year my program at ISU, I am not feeling less confident in the ISU program. I really like ISU, but Purdue has always been my dream school and I kick myself for not applying for freshman year. I want the Big Ten school feeling. My high school was a very school spirit type...ISU really isn't that and I miss that! On top of Purdue being my dream school and it is top ranked in the United States, Both of my older siblings went to University of Illinois. So if any of you have siblings that go there too, you might understand or maybe not because my siblings are hardcore university of Illinois fans, but I get a ton of crap for going to ISU. Nothing is wrong with ISU its a great school, but University of Illinois students think everyone is lesser for not going there. I hope you dont have to deal with that like I do. So my siblings think its better if I go to Purdue because it is a big ten school but it is still pur-don't.  I really like business aspect of the fashion world but if I get into Purdue's design school then I want to concentrate on Design. If I dont get in this semester then I am going to go after sophomore year. So I have to do well this semester! hope you love ISU! and love your program!
