I tried calling a few people in the directory today but noone picked up. Was really tempted to leave a voicemail in this day and age lol.
Snow day?!

I just got a Skype interview request from UCI over e-mail!
I heard last year they required an in-person interview for everyone, and wondering of they changed their policy this year. I didn't get an option to choose in-person, so wondering if anyone has received anything different.
Congratulations!! No news in my inbox. Checked out your website -- awesome work. Saw you were at Pioneer Works -- my studio was just a few blocks away on Dikeman/Van Brunt (Supersmith) & spent a couple of years making furniture above the key lime pie shop by the the pier in Red Hook.
Congrats again, hoping for myself, no news is not bad news.

I just had my 1st interview. It went really well! It was for NYC affordable housing lottery! Quick bit about me: I've lived in Brooklyn for the past 7 years and am married w/ 2 young daughters. We'be been living in the same 1br 4th floor walkup for the past 6...
I've been applying for these sorts of things for years & was finally selected for an interview (not gaurunteed).
If we are chosen for this rent controlled 2br apt in our neighborhood (greenpoint/wburg) -- that is $700 less a month then what we pay now.... I don't know how this might effect the grad school decision, if accepted.
Thank you forum, for letting me vent this new variable/"freak out".
All good problems.

Does anyone know (based on past years) when Northwestern might start sending out rejections/interview invitations?
I just searched through my gmail & I was notified of an interview at Northwestern on Wed, Feb 3, 2010 --- 7 years ago, last round I applied (whoa!)

@pdh12 you're applying literary, no?
@turkeyslug yeah Iowa! Tho, not painting -- ceramics. Im quite familiar with the department tho -- John Dilg is/has been making really amazing work (and others on faculty). Additionally, the Grant Wood Fellowship brings in a rolling cast of really great artists/teachers (they teach one class/contribute to grad workshops etc + are afforded a studio). This year Tameka Norris is there -- her work is fantastic.

Know of any MFA Sculpture programs that I can still apply to folks? It is late in the game but I unfortunately had a few setback. I still want to get some applications in for this cycle though. I will go anywhere yet, like the rest of the applicants, prefer fundings. Any and all help and suggestions would be GREAT!!! Thank you in advance!
U of Iowa accepts until 2/1 I believe.

Hey Ya'll- is anybody applying with a ceramics portfolio? What programs are you applying to? It can be a pretty different situation for us ceramics people- just wondering what you guys think about how the approach differs. Good luck to all!
Im just applying to Hunter (clay and casting) and Columbia Sculpture this year. Maybe NYU?

I applied ceramics to UCLA & Iowa.
UC-Riverside - not media specific, Northwestern - not specific & UC-Irvine - Sculpture.
My approach was much the same for all 5 apps. Majority of images were my most recent ceramic/sculptural & then ended with some furniture, social practice, performance stuff... same artist statement for ea.
