At just $100 per credit hour, about $3,000 per year, Edessa School of Fashion makes professional fashion education accessible without compromising opportunity.
While many fashion departments cost $39,000 annually, students at Edessa learn from faculty with real industry experience in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, including work with Ralph Lauren, Gap, Old Navy, Target, Land’s End, Todd Snyder, Liberty, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, JCPenney and Walmart.

At Edessa, the classroom connects directly to the industry. The school’s faculty bring practical expertise in design, retail management, buying and brand development, and they use their professional networks to help students pursue employment and career-building opportunities.
Edessa’s students take their work beyond campus. They present garments in New York City every year, celebrate their achievements on a Times Square billboard, and showcase collections in Chicago and throughout the region.
By participating in approximately 6-10 external fashion events each year, students gain the visibility, experience and confidence today’s fashion world demands.

Flexible scheduling and virtual courses allow students to learn from expert professionals across the country. Edessa School of Fashion’s award-winning students have earned recognition in major design competitions and have been featured in magazines, newspapers, and other publications.
