  1. So I did my undergrad at UW-Seattle, graduated in 2012. Since then I have had a job in an unrelated field, but kept up my art practice, developing my body of work and participating in shows as much as I can. I want to move back to Seattle, and UW is the only school with an MFA program in the area. Is it dumb to do an MFA program at the same school I did my undergrad art degree? I have heard that it's best to do your MFA in a city where you want to build networks and connections - I plan to be in Seattle long term. Thoughts? I want to apply to the MFA program for 2018, so that would be a good six years between when I graduated from undergrad.
  2. Feeling the same way and wondering the same thing - anyone willing to share examples?
  3. Hi! Fairly new to grad cafe, been lurking for awhile and have some questions!! What has been your experience in receiving a TA position? I know it probably depends on the program and how competitive it is. How much do they take into account previous teaching experience? I'm trying to figure out how much of a long shot it is to apply...I also work in a weird, non-traditional medium and most of the TAships I hear about are like, teaching intro to drawing, etc. Am I doomed for funding???! I will also have been out of undergrad for five years if/when I enroll...should I wait another year and try to get teaching experience some way, some how?? SO MANY QUESTIONS. Here are the schools I'm interested in (mostly in the pacific northwest because my husband and I wanna stay close to family/his work): Washington State U, MFA Interdisciplinary U of Oregon, MFA Fibers Northwestern, MFA Art Theory & Practice (longshot) Portland State U, MFA Contemporary Art Practice Here is my website if anyone is interested: maykytonen.com
