Retail Management (Launching in Fall 2012) In the United States alone, employment in the retail trade sector is twenty-eight million strong. This translates to 16 percent of all jobs in the U.S. In 2009, this sector represented $1.2 trillion or 8.5 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product. Most retail sales still occur within brick and mortar stores. Competition is fierce. Restructuring is ongoing. Staying on top requires retail industry managers to be nimble, analytical and creative with regard to the challenging and ever-changing retail environment. FIT's certificate program in Retail Management, developed in partnership with the National Retail Federation, addresses general analytical and problem solving abilities as well as industry requirements and essential specifications to manage retail operations both here and abroad. In addition, a mastery of foundational skills in Microsoft Excel, retail merchandising, and management skills will be provided.

Students denied admission to a degree program will be permitted to register as nonmatriculated students. Nonmatriculated students are not eligible for financial aid. Nonmatriculated students must have earned a high school diploma or a GED (exceptions based on advanced high school enrichment will be considered by the appropriate academic dean).

International Students Students who register in nonmatriculated status are not eligible for F-1 student visas or F-1 status. According to federal regulations, only those students admitted into a degree program are eligible for an I-20 Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student Status. Individuals already in the United States in other non-immigrant statuses that allow studies incidental to their stays may take classes. For a listing of statuses that allow studies while in the United States and for further information, visit fitnyc.edu/oisa.

61 U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulations prohibit non-immigrants admitted in B-1/B-2 (Tourist) status from pursuing a course of study. The DHS has determined that individuals in B-1/B-2 status may enroll in noncredit-bearing classes that are short in duration and not part of a course of study as long as these courses are “incidental to their visit to the U.S.,” in other words, attending classes is not the primary reason for their visit to the United States. At FIT, students in B-1/B-2 status may register for courses offered by the Center for Professional Studies, the Enterprise Center, Executive Education, and the Center for Precollege Programs, provided the classes begin and end within the period of stay authorized by the immigration service.

For more information, visit fitnyc.edu/oisa. International students interested in applying for any degree program must file a State University of New York application. Application and admissions criteria are available on the FIT website, fitnyc.edu/admissions. International students must apply before January 1 for the fall semester and before October 1 for the spring semester. Refer to the FIT website for additional deadlines. Sufficient time must be allowed for the verification and evaluation of foreign credentials. A decision cannot be made until all components of the application are received by Admissions.

Veterans and Selective Service The college has been accorded recognition as a school of higher learning by the Veterans Administration. Prospective students should obtain their VA papers as far in advance of registration as possible. Those seeking readmission to the college from the armed forces who have been admitted to the college for a date of entry prior to formal separation should notify the Veterans Administration immediately following receipt of acceptance in order to facilitate processing of early separation procedures.

Authorization for electronic debit Checks will be processed electronically, at first presentment and any re-presentments, by transmitting the amount of the check, routing number, account number, and check serial number to your financial institution, unless the check is not able to be processed electronically or a less costly process is available.

If your funds are not accessible, a draft may be issued against your account for the amount of the check.

Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between a matriculated student and a nonmatriculated student?

What is the difference between a credit course and a noncredit course? A credit course is officially registered with the State University of New York and administered by an academic school and department. Tests, assignments, and grades are provided by FIT faculty. Noncredit courses are short, intensive seminars or workshops administered by the School of Continuing and Professional Studies through its specialized centers. Each course is taught by an expert in the topic.

What is a certificate program? A certificate indicates that you’ve attained a high level of proficiency and professional training in a particular field. It’s a credential that demonstrates you’re able to meet the demands of the industry and the consumer. FIT offers both noncredit and credit certificate programs.

Is financial aid available to non-degree students?

Online courses are open to all current and repeat students and may be applied toward an FIT degree. For more information, contact the department at 212 217.4069 or visit fitnyc.edu/onlinelearning.

No. Only students admitted to FIT and enrolled in a fulltime or part-time degree-granting program are eligible for financial aid.

Do I need an FIT ID card? How do I get one? Do I have to complete both the Registration and the Enrollment/Re-enrollment Applications? Yes.

How much do classes cost? The cost of each course is listed in the course description. Tuition rates for credit courses vary based on whether the course is at the associate or baccalaureate level. Noncredit tuition rates are the same for New York and non-New York State residents.

Yes. FIT ID cards are required to enter campus buildings and must be clearly displayed at all times while you are on campus. If you do not have an ID card, enter through the Marvin Feldman Center lobby to obtain a visitor’s pass. Non credit students receive temporary ID cards from their instructor at the first session of their class. ID cards are available for credit students in the Photo ID Center in Room D404.
