    Thanks for the heads up. May I ask what kind of funding they offered you?

    Hey all, glad to read many of us are still in the running. Got an email this morning from admissions (wait for it) needing some documents.

    I too left disappointed and had hoped that Hunter was the answer to my issues with MFA programs. I got a sense that the program could be isolating and not effective if not taken into ones own hands (much like life). This lack of initiative on the part of many of the students was unnerving, made me wonder if I would go nuts surrounded by that for 3 years. I also found some of the more engaged students (the ones who were around to help during interview day) to be do-gooders and too focused on being students. The few students that I asked how many times they met with faculty seemed to vary. Did you get a sense of what critiques are like? Also, who did you interview with?

    Any of you writing thank you noted to interviewers? I've asked around, but I only have connections to other fields (not art) and many have said that this is slimy/corporate behavior and not necessarily fit for an academic institutions. That said, I have this nagging feeling like I am missing something!

    My interview felt too quick. I didn't get to touch on several subjects that I truly regret not getting to. Other than that, I found every one pleasant and the environment seemed to have more potential for growth than programs that have the intensely critical/power play kind of culture? What was your take? How was your interview. Unrelated, but thanks for posting alll this hunter stuff previously. Work and life in the last month has prevented me from being able to sit down and engage.

    Hi, I didn't get the sense the students weren't happy, but I did notice a certain lethargy. Didn't really pin-point it until reading your post. That said, there were a few engaging students. I did notice a certain immaturity among some (even though most of the students are not fresh out of under-grad). Any one else care to share their observations?

    Hi, they usually call (for columbia interviews). Good thing I bought my phone on eBay and it hardly ever catches messages on my voicemail!
  22. paint_and_destroy
    Just realized I misread the question. Thought you were wondering if everyone gets an interview. Best of luck, hope you get all the interviews!
  23. paint_and_destroy
    no. and the percentages of that happening depends on where you apply.
  24. paint_and_destroy
    Wow, can't believe that this is what columbia profs. are doing on the weekend! Again, best of luck. would you care to share your website or work?
  25. paint_and_destroy
    Anyone else heard from Bard or Columbia?
  26. paint_and_destroy
    Congratulations! Best of luck at the hot interviews. Thanks for the heads up. Also, to put a rumor to rest, does your slide room say MFA?

    Sorry that you are not catching a break. Can't add much, but felt compelled to respond with the intention to encourage. Hope that something works out soon.
