Accepted to Calarts today. Still cannot sway me from the gloriousness that is VCUs sculpture program

I was accepted into VCU sculpture 2 weeks ago. I am not sure if they are done, but they did make it seem that way.

VCU sculpture sent out their acceptances two weeks ago. sorry to be the bearer of bad news guys.

CMU sculpture sent out their interview requests this past week. a friend of mine is interviewing. yea I am doing an interview over skype with Calarts this Wednesday!

I have no clue if they are done looking at people I know he said I was on the shortlist for vcu sculpture. I thought the questions weren't hard at all. It was surprisingly non formal and very comforting. Very simple questions. Why vcu? Artists you look at. Who is your artist nemesis? Books in reading. What I can bring to vcu. Pretty standard five person panel. Two mfas. I really want to work with McKean as well! And ester..ah their faculty is so wondedul.

Just finished my interview with VCU sculpture and extended media whoa so weird that is already over and completely out of my hands now... it was really great they are so easy to talk to and two MFAs also sat in and asked me questions. 5 people total. hot damn the faculty there are amazing.

sculpture & extended media finalist at VCU. got an email this morning! skype interview saturday!

Got an email today! Calarts interview

Depends on the school... or would it be for all of your schools?

I did mine a few days ago and it took 3 days to get to me as well!

VCU's portfolio thingy sucks.

Well, nothing in particular happened. The city is lovely the people are amazing....my program just may not be the right fit for me. Also I have almost zero interest in teaching and that is pushed hard over here at IU. I was actually kind of told otherwise during my interview, but the tables have turned. My work has just progressed to a point where the current professor cannot and doesn't give me the feedback I need and want. I think its primarily because of my message/content/media is not what he knows how to deal with. I need to work under a more diverse department that isn't run by very masculine men

No and No, and in reality there is no 'last minute.' On time is on time regardless of how early or late it is, none of you will get more points since you submitted a few days, weeks, months, prior to the deadline. I am happy that you all seem to be so well organized and more mature than all of us other 'slacker-last-minuters.'

We have such a long way to go...... Anyone applying to Roski?

I did end up at IUB. I should have chosen Cornell, but you win some you lose some. I love the people and the town and even the program, but it just isn't the right one for me....I do primarily performance/sound/video work now and I am just not getting what I need to out of the program. Alot of strange things happened last year. A first year MFA in sculpture died and the other first year ended up leaving....so I think that was a lot of the confusion in the late acceptances. I know two of the people there now were on the waitlist. and ended up getting in.
