The problems at USC Roski are ongoing. For those just tuning in or wanting to know the latest I've posted the following link to a petition (update) by the MFA class of 2015. https://www.change.org/p/dean-erica-muhl-of-usc-roski-school-of-art-and-design-must-resign-now/u/11538464?tk=zGf22GeBCnh9rCn8-TdvnOSn3kH3S0GUTuym_7JST1k&utm_source=petition_update&utm_medium=email

Stuff like this is soo stressful! You've probably thought of this already, but just in case not...there should be contact info for the tech persons in charge of the application somewhere on the site. If you haven't already done so I would contact them. They can probably access the form even after the deadline passes if necessary. Hope it gets sorted out soon! Good luck.

When I had this problem last year switching to a different browser solved the problem.

I was told that these two articles http://www.brooklynrail.org/2012/12/art/figuring-it-out-bards-low-residency-mfa-program and http://www.artandeducation.net/school_watch/making-sense-is-radical-to-making-art-the-bard-mfa/ give a pretty accurate account of the Bard experience.

What Truths said. Slide descriptions are like wall tags in an exhibition.

Trying again with a different browser might work.

Vote of confidence from me! Looks great, best of luck!

Not sure about Yale, RCA and UCLA (though I'd guess yes for these programs), but certainly yes to all the others. SAIC is very interdisciplinary, as are Columbia and CalArts, and Bard specifies that your portfolio should show your best work in any medium regardless of the discipline you are applying to.

The application login page says: The university's professional schools (Art, Architecture, Divinity, Drama, Forestry, Law, Management, Medicine, Music, Nursing and Public Health) have separate admissions policies and application processes which are outlined within the admissions Web pages and publications of those schools. suggesting that the date on The School of Art's web page is the relevant deadline.

Just to clarify, UCSD is more of a two year program. You can stay on for three years (not uncommon) but it is structured like a two-year program and if you are international you can only get a two-year visa to attend.

Yes, it is the norm. You can submit your applications before your recommenders submit their letters.

Thanks for that. Feeling kinda swamped right now, but I hope to come back to this later. Hope everything is going well for you!

No need! It stands for Statement of Purpose.
