Where do I go to get a degree in fashion marketing?
I am deciding between Seoul, Tokyo, Paris, New York, London, and Shanghai. All of them have their own pros and cons (in my opinion), but I would like to know more about how strong the schools' fashion marketing programs are. Do they have strong internship and networking opportunities? Are the schools any good and/or well-known in the fashion industry? What about the city's atmosphere in general? Would I be able to express myself freely in the particular city? These are just some things I am wondering.

How can I expand my merchandising minor?
As a senior in high school, I've always been extremely nervous about college since I don't want to make the wrong decision and go into debt. I want to do something fashion related but I've heard that it's hard because it's not really a top priority career. I wanted to expand my umbrella of careers by majoring in business (management or marketing) and minor in merchandising; diving me a degree that will work in many careers and still learn more about my love for fashion. However, I don't know where to start when it comes to starting my career in fashion since I am not majoring in it. I love sewing, designing, and wearing fashion, and I dream of my career tickling that itch. So, what do I start to jumpstart my dream career? Do I do internships, if so, what are some examples?
