I did email KU's department head today and received word that I should be getting a positive letter soon.  I'm ecstatic, so thankful that this is where I landed.

Best wishes to everyone! The wait will soon be over!

Advice needed: If it's been a few weeks since an interview, is it inappropriate to email the head of the department for an update?

I was playing Words With Friends the other night, and I could have scored many points if "Yaled" was a word. I couldn't help but thing of all of you and that maybe "Yaled" should become a new verb as in Yaled: When someone keeps you waiting in earnest without a peep. :)  Good luck everyone! I'm still waiting to hear from KU.

Has anyone who interviewed heard anything yet? Does anyone know how long after interviews you usually hear? I had a dream last night I was rejected and it took me a good 15 minutes to convince myself I still had a shot. :) Good to know I really want it. Anyone else's heart beat a little faster every time you get a dreaded normal size envelope in the mail?

Hi kccur! I assume you went/go to KU? I had a brief Skype interview last week, I really really like the professors- I met with Darren McGee last summer and went to Forrest Pierce's recital a couple months ago. I am very much hoping I get in, I think it would be a perfect fit for me. I got rejected already by UMKC, I don't think my aesthetic or portfolio is what they are looking for (obviously).
