Other than enrolling at a school dedicated to design, many colleges do offer design programs. However, they don't all give them the same name. I've seen colleges call it Fashion Design, Apparel Design. The school I attend refers to it as Fashion Merchandising. If or when you know what school(s) you would like to attend, you should find a handbook detailing the majors (should be available from the schools' websites). You should be able to read descriptions of each major.

Both are in the field of ART, and if you go to an art institute you can get a very precise degree in either. At any school, you want to start with a very basic art education...learning about form, color, lighting, line, composition, etc.
You will need basic skills in drawing for both careers, even if it is just sketching...as well as some experience in photography, at least how to take a decent pic, even if you don't develop them yourself.
You will also want to study up on your textiles. Learning about different fabrics, learning how to sew, for either of these in particular, even if every artist doesn't need to know how to sew.
You also want to get some business courses because quite frequently, this is a career where, the better you are, the more likely your name is on the door.

What kind of designer do you want to be?
Clothing and Interior designing are completely different things. Clothing is for fabrics, cloth-making, etc. Interior designing is for the house's structure, design, and so on...

i desire your parents are independently rich as portray is a pastime, not a occupation. because of the fact that photographs the form of rich buyers who ought to help Leonardo with artwork have dried up. the superb you need to probable get is probably a low paying job as a portray fix artist. And unlss you're between the 0.a million% who're extremely fortunate and artwork in ny or London, there is not any thank you to make a superb living at it. And in case you seem at painters who're advertising nicely now maximum did it for years as a pastime and not in any respect had lots frmal training. They did it for the affection of paintings and not as a occupation.

You should have a course counselor assigned to you
colleges do this so you don't float around blowing your money
ask your counselor - they should know the institution better than we do out here in never-never land
all the best

I think colleges will ask you to take English for beginners before enrolling in their full time programs!

You should be an English major instead.
