She deserved to get into FIT. After she got waitlisted, she didn't just give up. Many of us, like she said, probably would have done nothing about it. The fact that she saw an opportunity in that situation, proves how much dedication and passion she has for the fashion industry. She took that chance to further prove what she is capable of. Thank you for showing us what hard work and dedication could bring us! Ilysm Christina!
Who finished the whole video even tho they not gonna be going to FIT? I did cuz even tho I’m not gonna go into FIT i wanted to know how much effort it takes to get into a college u really wanted to get into
I would go to FIT because Christina inspired me but I am a dancer and I heard that there are dance colleges in NYC so atleast I’m still going to go to a college in NY☺️
I already got into FIT but I am still watching, I think maybe cause its cool that she got off the waitlist and makes me think of the schools that waitlisted me when I was in high school and if I could have a second chance (I am a transfer to FIT, also I am kinda glad I didn't get into the schools that waitlisted me haha)
hey girl we met at orientation! I had a similar experience with admissions, I was so passionate about getting in visited and called them more times than I can count. cheers to us being proactive about doing what we love.
I'm in middle school (next year I'm going to high school) and I plan on pursuing a fashion business in the future, I'm glad I clicked on this video, I will consider the college in the future.
This video really shows that if you want something bad enough then you don't just give up, you keep trying until you feel satisfied that you've done everything you can. Even though this video is about you applying to FIT, your determination can honestly apply to anything, and tbh these are words I wanna live by ❤️
Christina you inspire me so much!!!! You've made me start to think more about what I want to do with my life and made me start to think about how I want to get there. My dream is to go to college in California or FIT for graphic design, but I 100% want to go to California that is my life goal. Thanks to you you've made me realize that if I really want to go there then I have to give it my all. If you've never made this video I probably would've never thought about how to make this happen for me bc without you I probably wouldn't have done anything, even tho I really want to go there. Thank you so much!!!!❤️
I am in the process of applying for music performance universities. Although I’m obviously not going into the same area as you, this video has given me confidence in realising that if things don’t go as planned, there are always alternative routes
You're so dedicated and inspirational‼️ This really helped me and made me think of how I should handle things when applying to the colleges I want. I'm in the process of applying to colleges and I have one specific college that I really want to get accepted to and if I'm in the same boat as you were, I'm going to take action and accomplish it. 😁👊🏼
I must say i´m proud of myself for watching this whole thing start to finish, i´ve kind of gotten used to your long videos because of all the 30 min or more story times you used to do !! ANYWAYS i´m so proud of you like DAMN you did so much.I literally love you so much you are honestly so inspirational and dedicated !! I FREAKIN LOVE YOU
Holy shapoozles woman! I’d be so afraid to talk to the head of admissions even if I would die if I didn’t get in. I would just be so afraid. This video really helped me to make sure that when I start to actually apply for colleges that if I ever did get waitlisted, I would do anything I can just to get in. Thank you Mama Chickee for giving me courage to do this crazy shizz😂💕
I'm on a completely different career path than you and currently pursuing grad school but this video was inspirational. I'm too reserved for my own good, and never that BOLD and persistent about my ambition or about "proving myself" to others and it's why I never bothered to appeal my financial aid at big undergrad schools I got into or bothered to appeal my waitlist at big public ivies I got into. Goes to show that self-confidence and being your own biggest advocate while persisting is KEY to succeeding!
ever since June 13th, 2017 when I discovered you, I started having a passion for makeup. It has been my goal for awhile now to attend FIT when I get old enough. I'm still currently in the 8th grade, but my future high school offers a cosmetology class. I plan on taking it, and putting forth my best effort. Thanks for inspiring me everyday to reach my goal! Love you lots
You have bought my attention to FIT and now I have a goal in life and when I graduate I want to go to FIT, u have inspired me so much, love u Christina
only christina would be the one to submit all of this stuff. when i apply to fit, i’m gonna try just as hard as you. you really inspired me to attend the school and never give up. even though i’m so late thank you so much i love you chickee!
omg i have watched your videos for so long, but recently i've been looking into colleges and didn't even remember you went to fit ( the college i'm primarily looking into) until now.
Was one hell of an experience.. I feel so happy for u... I felt like I was there too😂😂 I felt so engulfed and captivated... your hunger for success and love and dedication for FIT is crazy! Congrats!!
I've been thinking of going into fashion after high school, and this video really made me realise that i really want to go to FIT! Thank you, and your story is actually really motivating to never stop trying. The quote 'the squeaky wheel gets the oil' is now on my quote board. Thank you so much!!! ❤❤
Thank u so much love! I wanted to go to this college for about 2-3 years now and I really needed this info, you gave so much info about literally everything I needed to know ❤️❤️
Christina - this video came at the perfect time. I was just about to send off my college essay but your video made me realize there were some major changes I had to make. You truly have such an inspirational story & deserve everything you have. Sending you much love & thanks :))
Christina I love you and your videos and one day you be the largest youtube you are my inspiration and keep me going in life keep up the good work and remember we all love you
This really helped me get thinking about how to handle things if something that I wanted to happen didn't happen as planned. If possible, be persistent. I'm 18 and you've done wayyyy more in life than I have lol. I hope to one day be as dedicated as you are about what you do/want to do. I'm going to start using that quote that you mentioned in the video, "the squeaky wheel gets the oil" because it's actually so true. Love your videos and good luck finishing your degree at FIT!! P.S. I'm not a creepy person I promise lol my profile picture just won't load onto my profile
I got rejected the first time I applied to FIT so I figured ill try again and I applied again an just recently got waitlisted. but listening to Christina speak about her determination to get she has motivated me too go the further step and take control of getting what I want.
NOTICE ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEY MAMA CHICKEE I LOVE U 😘😁💖💖 ALSO WANTED TO ASK DO THEY HAVE CLASSES THAT ARE ABOUT MAKEUP ALSO... I LOVED THIS VIDEO IM CRYING!
Christina, every time I'm feeling anxious about my univsersity application process, I always come back to this video for motivation. You are amazing, I've seen this at least 10 times! Thanks for the inspiration :)
Omg, you're honestly such an inspiration!! All this information you just talked about would really be beneficial for me in the future for when i start applying to college. I would definitely take your advice on taking college courses classes right now in high school. Thank you for making this video, you're such a role model for me and many other Chickees out there!
You are literaly my favorite youtuber and not only because your beans girlfriend, thats just a bonus. I want to go to FIT after watching all your videos even tho i probubly wont get in🙁❤❤
BROOOO! I just checked my mail earlier and saw that I got a letter from FIT and my reaction was just like yours haha. I saw the small envelope and I was like no. I closed the mailbox and stood there like dang it! It's not a package, cause usually when you get accepted you receive a package with congratulations in the front. Honestly for some reason I didn't feel helpless, even before opening the envelope, I was too calm, maybe it was the state of shock lol but idk. Well I finally got into my room and I was like okay let's do this... So I opened it and I saw that I got waitlisted and I was like okay there's a chance. I texted my friends and they were basically like nah hopes dead but I'm refusing to believe that it's impossible, I especially have a boost after watching this video. You're lucky that you live near FIT, I'm all the way down here in Texas. I'm going to email them though. DUDE ALSO THE SAYING ABOUT BEING THE SQUEEKY WHEEL LOL I LIVE BY THAT !!! One question, when you sent the letter did you mail it or through email? Anyways thank you for restoring some hope in me. I'm going to try my best and see what happens.
thank you so much for this video! all the other videos i’ve watched all about people who applied and immediately got in. it’s good to see that there’s still a chance even if you get waitlisted😂
My friend who is a genius always told me if you REALLY want something: bombard them with emails lol. He got some really amazing internships just by emailing them everyday. You did everything right you proved you really want it!
This is truly inspirational.I love how passionate you are about the things you want to achieve and all your hard work definitely paid off seeing how far you have come.When I’m finally old enough to apply for university(I’m British😏)I will look back on this video to remind my self that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Thanks queen💕
Cristina, thank you so much for making this video. I am only a freshman in high school but I have gone to 2 college fairs. This video has inspired me to work hard not only for college but for things like getting a job. Thank you so much. I am now considering FIT even though I know nothing about makeup and a little bit about fashion. You and Why Don't we inspire me to work hard. Thank you so much for this video and I will be using one of you tutorials for homecoming this weekend, I just don't know which one.
Wow after listening to this it just makes me want to be so productive and just get all of my life works done today so I can be stress free in the next life.😂💛
Dude you’re gorgeous Christina. I’m so proud of you. I’m only in 7th grade living close to Dallas and hoping to soon meet you one day. You’re very inspiring to me and ily. ❤️
Hi I am 14 yrs old and I am obsessed with makeup. My friend who does not interest in makeup showed me who you are and I found out about this college! I would love to attend their! My goal is to become like you, Laura lee, Jaclyn Hill, and so many other youtubers and other cosmetologists who did not give up on their dreams! My parents do not approve of me becoming a cosmetologist because they think I won’t be successful but just because they do not approve I will not give up on my dreams. Please continue creating videos! You inspire me and so many other young people to continue with there dreams and to learn more about makeup! Also I hope you read this comment!❤️
Thank you Christina for making this video!!! Your experience gave me courage to take an action and do not give up. I just wanna say THANK YOU and LOVE YOU keep making amazing and funny long video!!!!❤️
tysm for this very helpful and inspiring vid christina! i always wanted to go to college and knew it would be a challenge but you proved to me anything can happen if you keep on trying no matter what. thank you for being such an amazing role model ilyyy
