Thanks, Milkyways. Same with Northwestern!

Thanks CW01 for starting the topic. I've just accepted CMU's offer to be one of the six new MFAs this Fall. Will start looking into housing, and it would be great to house share with another CMU grad(s).

Anyone else out there?

Congrats everyone on all the awesome acceptances. After all the deliberating, I decided to accept the offer from CMU today. I'm going to Carnegie Mellon!

Congrats Derpderpderp!

Mt. Royal offered some additional funding…..have started to consider it against Carnegie Mellon…. Only a couple days left to decide.

Thanks Maya and Chi!

I empathize and must admit this thread is very refreshing. Thank you for sharing. It's been the most stressful time, trying to decide between schools.

Pros and cons list is being made tomorrow…so yeah…down to the wire here as well.

222…Milkyways pretty much nailed it. You're right, it IS a great program! From what I understand there is ample funding in the city of Pittsburgh (and through the school) to do pretty much a great extent of work while there. One's work tends to be highly regarded and supported on many levels due to association with the CMU name. Having chances for it to be seen by the larger art community, if that's something you're after, seems like more of a challenge. But not an impossible one if you're tenacious.

What would be your primary reason/s, if you don't mind sharing.

MICA Mt Royal has offered me almost the same amount of funding as CMU. Which would you go with?

Congrats on acceptance! I have been having the hardest time determining whether I want to spend the next 3 years in P-burgh. The school seems wonderful though. Big decision.

Anyone going to Mt Royal?
