Received a phone/skype interview request—via email—from CCA yesterday for an interview tomorrow. :-)
My progress so far—accepted to UC Davis and SAIC low residency.—rejected from Yale.
Best interview advice I ever received — "Just Don't Suck".
Your interview invitation means your work with your statement are strong enough for their program.
Congratulations!!!!!!
I got the same thing from the UCLA Acrchitecture School and I hadn't even applied to UCLA.
I have received acceptances to SAIC Low Residency and UC Davis. I am waiting on Bard, CCA, SVA and Yale. I suppose I may be waiting thru February.
Good luck to everyone.
Hi,
I also Skype "interviewed" with UC Davis today and feel the same. It wasn't an actual interview in that there was no dialogue. I had 8 minutes to answer the questions and 2 minutes for them to answer any questions I had. I felt nervous and rushed since they were already running late. I read the answers I had written and their response to my question was general and impersonal. I really like this school and I hope the interview went better than I believe it did.
I wish I had rambled like you and kept it more real than just read my answers. At lease we'll know soon.
Good Luck.
I would definitely go for a full time program over a low residency MFA. The two programs are not comparable. I chose the low residency because it would be very difficult for me to leave home for more than a couple months a year. I have also applied to a local full time program, UC Davis, along with several other low-residency programs.
It's awesome to have choices. I wish you all the luck in your decision and your future.
Wow, I am really happy for you. Thank you for sharing this. The SAIC low residency is my top school. I have not heard anything and yours is the second acceptance I have news of. Did they notify you by a phone call or email? I hope I hear something soon.
Fingers crossed and spirits high!
I'm trying not to stress. Anyone else applying to SAIC low residency? I just noticed on thegradcafe admissions results page, someone already received an acceptance phone call.
I applied to six schools for an MFA in painting or interdisciplinary art. I am beyond anxious.
