  1. A lot of people in the Hunter MA do get into curatorial positions; many even get curatorial positions or move on professionally during attendance that they never finish the thesis. I've discussed the benefits of Hunter in another thread, but I will add that you should not expect any funding from Hunter, save perhaps on reimbursement for any conferences you travel to or if you are able to get the Kossacks Travel Grant. I cannot speak on Tufts, but my correspondence and relationships with students at UC Irvine has been really fantastic. The Haunt Journal of Art, published there, is one of the greatest new journals to come out from a contemporary art department in recent years, and I really trust their program. Also, if you can get in touch with Rhea Anastas as UCI then you basically have one of the best teachers and knowledge bases for curatorial studies and contemporary art as you would at Hunter or Bard CCS (where she once taught and lectured years ago). She is currently working on a book about Orchard Gallery, and is a huge source for curatorial practices. Do not worry about the MFA designation, because directors and curatorial departments know of the reputation UCI has and is building. Best of luck!
  2. At the very bottom of the admissions guidelines page.
  3. Was this note about "last date to accept is April 1" in the email you received? Because the website says, for both MA and PhD in HTC, that applicants will be notified by April 1. So, it looks like we will hopefully at least hear news in the next week 1/2?
  4. Biased opinion, here, but: Harper Montgomery at CUNY did her Ph.D. at University of Chicago, and she is the Latin Americanist there. I know she has helped place some of her students into well-regarded Ph.D. programs, putting a friend of mine into Princeton. The ability to take courses at the Grad Center through Hunter MA is also worthwhile. Howard Singerman has done some great things for the Hunter department, and I think it has become exciting to be there again.
