 " Some professors are bad and not helpful at all, some are excellent in the area he/she specializes, be careful and strategic about the course/Professor you select, reach out to the advisor as soon as you realize you need to switch class. The school dorm is too expensive, not suggest living there. "

 " Overall, the Paris campus of Parsons The New School offers a very different experience compared to the New York City campus. If you're looking for student life and campus facilities, NYC is the better choice. But if you prefer city living and the atmosphere of Paris, then the Paris campus is ideal. "

 " Great campus and wonderful professors who are supportive and experienced in the field of study. Networking and building relationships with professors are important! The campus was great, during the pandemic COVID-19 testing was required every 2 weeks, which was important to make sure I felt comfortable being in-person. "

 " The MFA DT program at Parsons - The New School is an amazing program for any designer looking to be encouraged and supported into the field professionally. They work through the fundamentals and help your creative practice into your final thesis. The skills you obtain in such a short two year span is well worth the cost. "

 " I love Parsons School of Design a lot. Its diverse and inclusive community, supportive faculty, and excellent facilities. The school emphasis on hands-on learning, encouraged us to experiment and take risks in our creative work. And also provide numerous opportunities for internships and networking.
However, I feel most of the time workload at Parsons is intense, with long hours and tight deadlines. And also living in New York City is very expensive. "
