    Also waitlisted for Cornell. 

     

    I'm waitlisted for three schools and all of them after interview. Maybe my interview skills aren't as good as I thought :/

     

    Starting feel like I'm not "good enough" for these big schools, or, I'm just an ungrateful bastard 

     

    Wonder this means no funding oppotunity for Cornell.. 

     

    Fingers crossed, everyone! 

    Don't beat yourself up! Big schools are really picky and art is so subjective it's not something easily quantifiable. Just know you're not alone in all your feelings of doubt!! We're all here with you!!!

    Hey all, new here as I didn't know something like Grad Cafe even existed until the other day. Hello hello! Definitely just as frustrated with the staggered timelines of each school. My results are as follows...

    I was accepted to Tyler for painting on February 3 with a full-ride merit scholarship. Woohoo!

    Waitlisted at VCU on February 21.

    Had interviews at Rutgers and UC Irvine, still waiting to hear back from them. 

    Haven't heard a word from RISD, so assuming that's a no go.

    Would be thrilled to go to Tyler, and feeling like that's most likely what I'll do.  Though I definitely would appreciate solid answers from my other schools as well. What a bonkers process! Excited for all who are getting positive responses, and for those still waiting, this is the biggest test in patience, but I feel like we'll know all of our results real soon. Don't let negative responses make you question your worth as an artist. My mentor likened filling grad programs to casting a play... they're looking for the right set of characters and variety of work just as much as they are striving for a collection of strong artists. Keep at it folks!

    Ah ha someone accepted to Tyler! Congratulations!!! I would love to see your work if you'd be willing to share your website.

    That is really great, congratulations!!!!

    Is it unusual to not hear about funding for a couple weeks after your  acceptance?  Or do most people find out the day they get accepted? 

     

    I got accepted to Moore and they said that I won't hear about funding until the end of this week via mail. But after reading through some of these posts I think some people get funding with their acceptance letters if the school really wants them I guess.

    Don't you mean by the end of Feb?


    "Thank you for your interest in the Tyler School of Art. The Painting Department has started to make decisions but no decision has been made on your application yet. You should be hearing back by the end of March. Please let me know if you have any questions!"
