Same here!! Finally some closure!

Same to you - good luck!! I was very glad to read that someone else was having the same thing going on.

I am in exactly the same boat! I reached out to the general grad email last week to follow up but haven't heard back.

I would reach out to the grad coordinator to ask if deferring is an option - some schools won't allow you to defer at all. My understanding is that if you defer you are not guaranteed to receive your original funding offer in most cases, but I'm sure that varies by school. Good luck!!

My guess is that this wasn't an actual deferred entrance student since lots of programs won't allow you to do that - I interpreted it as a person who got into the program previously but decided to wait and reapplied later but wasn't admitted. Which still sucks, but makes more sense to me that way!

So bizarre! Which school?

Has anyone heard from Boulder for sculpture post-interview?

Ahh congrats!

Got an acceptance from Univ. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign yesterday! I burst into tears when I opened their email. Still waiting on funding news but so happy

Congratulations!!!

Did anyone else interview with University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign?

Me too! ☹️ Hang in there!

Did anyone hear from UT Austin who applied to a department other than painting or photo? I'm assuming I'm out since I never heard back and people are getting accepted but just curious! Congrats to those of you who got accepted!!

Just got an interview request from CU Boulder!!

I agree too - I wouldn't necessary write off a post-bac as a waste of time or money, or as being "babysat." If you are in a professional situation after undergrad that limits your art practice I think it could be a very helpful option to get back into the studio, have access to professors, and have access to an artistic community. All of these things can nurture your portfolio and help get it to a point that might be stronger for MFA applications depending on your situation!

Kudos to all of you with schools with later deadlines or just later responses - 3/6 of the schools I applied to are accounted for (one interview, two rejections) and I'm still going crazy waiting for the remaining 3! Super thankful for being able to hear from all of you.

Same here! I can stop checking their status page ?

Dang, officially rejected from Northwestern via email just now! I figured as much but still a bummer

Anyone apply to/hear from Boulder yet?

Applied in printmaking, haven’t heard anything back yet. No changes on the app status, either. What was their method of notification in the past? Phone, email? Nothing here yet either! It looked to me like people heard back via email about interviews last year, but I could be misinterpreting! Madison may also be delayed from weather, they were closed for at least one day this week.

Congrats!!

Anyone still waiting to hear from UT Austin? Or did anyone get an interview with them for sculpture/extended media?

Got an interview request for Urbana Champaign for this Friday!

I hadn't thought of that, but maybe it will since a lot of schools in the midwest closed for one or two days this week!

Same here. Blerg
