E got into FIT for next year

In the Fashion Design program, which is supposed to be hard to get into though, to her annoyance, none of us expected her not to get in at all. It's a bit hard for us to get too excited.

That makes me curious as to what her long-term goals actually are?

I am admittedly skeptical of anyone in their teens or early twenties' career goals. Unless they have a patron, or someone who is going to help them realize those goals, and pave the way - it's bound to change. Or even it they do, it's still bound to change. Although there are people who planned to become an actress, fashion designer, novelist, singer, lawyer, doctor, etc - at the age of 10 and actually achieved that career and stayed in it all their lives.

You'd have to ask her. Whether she follows through on them or not, I do think she's one of very few young people I've ever met who would have the wherewithal to make her own bachelor's.
