Cazenovia College

Founded in 1824 and located in the village of Cazenovia, just outside of Syracuse in Upstate New York, this small and independent private, co-educational baccalaureate college of 1,000 students has been named one of “America’s Best Colleges” by U.S. News & World Report for a number of years.

It’s a place for students who want to have close relationships with their professors and fellow-classmates.

There, through studies in fashion, and most importantly a BFA in Fashion Design or a BS in Fashion Merchandising, they develop technical, creative, and knowledge-based skills that will soon help them create their own collections. The curriculum includes the basis for a liberal arts education, along with more career-building courses in art and fashion.
