Villioti Fashion Institute Requirements For 2022 Online Application

The Villioti Fashion Institute seeks serious, responsible and highly motivated students with a passion for fashion. There is no admission formula; every applicant is reviewed individually, according to his or her skill, experience, achievements and potential for growth. While the admission process recognises the benefits of strong artistic preparation, it also accepts academically accomplished applicants despite limited art or design experience.

Applicants are required to undergo an interview process using a formal admission assessment tool by which we evaluate each student for potential and fit.
