  1. Emailed OSU, was told they have filled all spots and "won't be accepting anyone else off the waitlist". I think I'm more disappointed that someone DID get in off the waitlist. At least, that is how I'm reading it. Try again next year I guess! ?
  2. Did you end up having any luck? I haven't heard anything, and I'm very disappointed. I was really set on going there, mainly because I love Columbus and I have a lot of friends there. It is such a good program too, and the department had everything I was looking for. Does it seem like a good idea to anyone at this point to send an email just out right asking for an update? I figure it won't hurt my chances this late in the game, and I may as well rip the band aid so I can just move on, because I'm sick of checking my emails every day and finding nothing there.
  3. I am still yet to hear anything from OSU after being waitlisted. I've all but moved on, but I really want to just know so I can stop checking my email every morning expecting to see SOMETHING.
  4. Good luck to you!!! I would also love to visit Korea... but it is super easy to get a year long working holiday visa for Japan in Australia. I have mainly done month-long residencies, this time I'd like to do something a bit longer. The ones I'm looking at are the Kamiyama AIR, the Aichi University of the Arts AIR, Youkubo Artspace, and PARADISE.
  5. I'm waitlisted at Ohio State. I thought my interview went pretty well, but they said they had over 100 applicants so I'm pretty happy to even make it to this point. I am Australian, so the whole process has been a bit difficult to wrap my head around, but I am still holding out hope to be accepted. I've started making other plans, though - I have my eye on some residencies in Japan, as well as working towards a group show in Melbourne in September. It is kind of a relief to put it out of my mind and have something else to think about.
  6. That was really helpful and has made everything a lot clearer for me. Thank you very much!
  7. I just realized I've posted this in the wrong place... oops, sorry! Can an admin please move to the appropriate place? Thanks!!
  8. Hello everyone, I am an international applicant to a Masters program (I only applied for one because it is in a city I have visited and really want to live in - and I was really just testing the waters). I had an interview via Skype at the start of February, only about 5 days after applications closed, and it went very well in my opinion, so I felt pretty good about that. After not hearing anything for about a month, I woke up to an email saying that I had been waitlisted. I was pretty disappointed, because I thought the interview went pretty well. My American friends told me it isn't a good sign and it just means more waiting. I sent an email asking for clarification on how waitlists work (I have never encountered a waitlist system in Australia), if I was able to know where I was on the waitlist or if I needed to submit any other material, and it has been almost two weeks without a reply. This has disheartened me further. What is the probability of being accepted to a program when you have been waitlisted? Is it really just a roll of the dice? The email itself was very formal, but the attached letter was more positive in tone ("pleased to inform you", "your application was of interest", etc) so that does make me more hopeful. It also said they would contact me in the next few weeks if they were able to offer me a spot - does that mean they won't tell me if I don't get in, and I will just have to find out from their portal that I've been rejected? I'm not trying to get my hopes up, though - but when you're applying from overseas there is just so many variables to consider and things to organize, and my anxiety has been off the charts the last few months. It'd be nice to know whether I got it or not so I can start planning or move on. Thanks in advance for any advice!
