thanks! did you apply for photo? I don't know about funding. she said they weren't done with that yet..

acceptance call from Herron photo! I think there's a couple of others on here that applied to Herron? said letters would be sent out next week or so as they are finalizing fin aid.

yup. me too.

finally heard from SAIC - rejection letter to confirm my assumption. oh well.. now I'm hoping to hear from VCU and Herron this week! after that it's decision time good luck to all of you!

congrats all! it's nice hearing some news rolling in. keep em coming!

What's the deal with SAIC photo? I know some people on here have received interviews. but their fb page says that they'll send out notifications within the next 2 weeks. are those rejections then? or acceptances based on the interviews? both? I'm assuming I got rejected at this point but I just want to know for sure! are their interviews this weekend btw!

congrats on your interview! I haven't heard anything at all from SAIC so I'm assuming rejection. anyways, I think you should wear whatever you feel comfortable in but maybe not too dressed up? I think the magazine sounds interesting! but maybe also bring a few prints from one series? I'd probably avoid flashdrive/projector since that's how they've already seen your work.. I'm sure they'd probably like to se physical work? note: I've never had an interview there so I'm just guessing! I would just call/email and ask if you are unsure.. I'm sure they get that all the time. also, type in "interview" in the search bar. there is a tread with TONS of questions. I used those to prepare for my phone interview with one school and it really helped. however, they only asked the common questions (why grad school/why this school, tell me about your work, influences etc)

just had my phone interview with VCU. I think it went okay. I did my best and we will see what happens but when he was telling me more about the program I just wanted to yell "your program is perfect for meeeee!" haha I'll definitely be disappointed if I get rejected. it seems like such an awesome school! anyways.. the questions were: "talk me through the work in your portfolio", "what interests you about VCU?" "what are some of your influences? (artists, authors etc)" "tell me something else about your self/what do you like to do outside of your art practice?" and "do you have any questions..." to which I asked him to tell me more about the program/a typical week/interaction with faculty and also how often students engage with each other across disciplines within the school of art... I think that was it.. *crossing fingers like a maniac*

congrats! that's awesome! I have a phone interview on Tuesday for photo.. how was your interview?

call from university of florida - accepted with funding. don't know details yet but pretty exciting didn't expect to hear so soon!

University of Arizona - Photo application deadline - Feb. 1 acceptance - Feb. 19 (phone call) VCU - Photo application deadline - Jan. 15 request for interview - Feb. 19 phone interview - Feb. 26 acceptance - ? rejection - ? Washington University in St. Louis application deadline - Jan. 14 acceptance - Feb. 16 (phone call)

I'm expecting rejection from SAIC as well. maybe there is still hope since only two people from the forum have heard from them and they are both abroad.. however, with interviews coming up soon I highly doubt it. oh well! I wasn't set on SAIC anyways and I'm definitely grateful for my two acceptances so far. I hope you hear some good news from RIT this week!

no, there's nothing in the status column. my application also says incomplete items outstanding but I think that's because I'm an international and the system is asking for a toefl score even though I got a waiver..

photo and film

congrats to you too! what medium? no they just said that they would forward their decision to graduate admission and that I would get an official letter in the mail and scholarship info later on. didn't give a timeline though..

got an email today from VCU to set up a phone interview. anyone else with phone interview experience to share? crazy nervous already.

just got an email about phone interview from VCU! eeeeeek. so nervous. I have mild phone phobia.. plus I'm terrible at interviews. ugh.. any advice?

congrats! I'm going

just got a call from university of arizona - accepted (albeit not officially since they couldn't do that over phone) didn't realize it was a 3year program though. I think that's mostly a good thing but I've been pretty set on 2 years.. oh well, funding will probably decide for me!

I applied to VCU but haven't heard anything..

no.. nothing from SAIC yet.

already posted in the other thread but got accepted to WashU/WUSTL by phone call today! no news on funding yet.

awesome! yes I think I'll definitely make the trip. my boyfriend currently lives there so it's pretty convenient haha

accepted to WUSTL today! so excited to finally hear something

just got a call from washu! accepted! wohooooo! so relieved
