FIT's
2008 SUMMER LIVE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES:
FYI:
Unfortunately, housing in Manhattan is nearly
impossible for high school students this summer.
Please consider neighboring areas such as other
boroughs (Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx), Long Island, New
Jersey, Connecticut (south) and any other town that
connects to easy transportation such as NYC's MTA,
PATH, NJ Transit, MetroNorth and Long Island Rail
Roads. All of these trains provide easy
accessibility to FIT.

RECOMMENDED BOOKING DATES:
We recommend arriving early enough before your
chosen orientation date so you will have time to
settle-in, relax and get your student ID card.
Orientation for new students is on your choice of
July 2nd, 3rd or the 6th.
Returning students
do not need to attend Orientation.
