    Thank you everyone for the advice regarding loans. It's a difficult decision. SAIC Low-Res was my top choice because I could maintain my full-time museum job during the regular school year and I feel unbelievably lucky to have got as much aid as I was offered. So while I make around 40k a year, plus whatever I can get through art - I'm terrified of loans. I have no debt currently and the freedom that has allowed me cannot be understated. I am beginning to think I may pursue residencies and low-cost opportunities and reapply in the future, although I realize this is probably the best offer possible for me from SAIC. Adulting is hard.

    SAIC with half tuition and 15k grant - so around 60k in debt all told - worth it? Having a hard time swallowing that price tag.

    I received a big blue envelope... telling me to submit another document. I'm glad to hear someone else is still waiting, I was beginning to sweat it thinking I didn't get anything.

    She just told me information would be in the packet with the official letter. I kind of assumed that if I had received a scholarship they would have mentioned it during the phone call - could be wrong though. I will let you know what's in my letter once I get it. Here's to hoping we both got something great!

    Nothing on my end from SAIC. Starting to get antsy... Hopefully we will hear something soon, especially with two other departments trotting out interviews.
  25. PoMo Blues
    Woo, that's a relief. Don't be so hard on yourself - no one has heard anything from them, so you're still on equal footing with us all! Good luck!

    In other news - I see my MIT application has been "reviewed by staff and sent to admissions committee for consideration" - so that's terrifying.

    @k-khalid When did you get the interview call? I haven't heard anything from them, which really bums me out since I thought I had a solid chance after talking with Lee and her being so enthusiastic about my work and even giving me a waiver. Oh well safety school. And congrats on the first interview of the forum!

    Obviously every school probably handles LoR differently, but I know I am short one for MIT (I've contacted her several times, but had 2 out of 3 received at time of submission) and they went ahead and reviewed my application with only the two letters. Now if this affects my chance at admission is another thing, but it did not keep them from reviewing my application. Perhaps the same can be said for Bard and Yale?

    At least it looks like historically we should hear in the next two weeks.

    @k-khalid @MonkeyPants SAIC Low-Res here too!

    Submitted SAIC Photo this morning. I didn't realize they would give you until the end of the week to complete unfinished applications (in case anyone else is torn about applying to multiple programs).
