How is everyone making decisions about $$$?? I got in to NYU & Goldsmiths, but even though NYU has funding for everyone, it's really not enough, and Goldsmiths doesn't have any funding at all for international students. My advisors from undergrad are both telling me to just do it, basically, but everyone else seems much more hesitant, and I'm looking at something like 80k - 100k worth of debt. That seems totally crazy, and I don't know if I should accept one of these offers, apply for external funding, and hope for the best, or if I should just reapply in the future and do better research on funding next time!

Emailed the dgs at CMU asking for an update - will post when they get back. Hope everyone is almost done with this!
Also waiting on CMU. I emailed a couple weeks ago & they (took 5 days to get back to me and) said they are “very much still in the process of making their decisions” ????

Anyone else interview with NYU last week (or interviewing soon)? When they emailed me to set up an interview time, they gave me two possible dates (Tuesday or Thursday of last week), so I assumed they were doing all interviews on those days; however, when I spoke to them, they told me they had two more weeks of interviews to go, and were interviewing around 45 people in total...[yikes emoji].
Anyway, in case this info is helpful to anyone, I had a skype interview with Goldsmiths last week, thought it went horribly, and then got an email acceptance less than an hour later! (So, I'm guessing they were just interviewing to make sure I wasn't some asshole). My first acceptance! Feeling pretty good about that, except that they don't have funding for international students of course.
Officially rejected from VCU painting as of last week Tuesday. Still not a peep from CMU which at this point makes me wonder if they lost my application lmao. -

I interviewed two weeks ago and the head of the department emailed me tonight. Yeah, it was for painting. Seems like all the departments are interviewing at different times. Did anyone here get accepted to the painting/printmaking department?
Heck, I interviewed with VCU painting and haven't heard anything yet. I didn't know they'd started sending out results yet.

Hi all, first time posting -- wish I had discovered these forums before I started applying lol!
Anyone know how to interpret it if you've heard nothing from a school, but know that both rejections and interview invites have been out for a while (for some applicants, anyhow)? Is there a chance that they're holding onto my name in case their first-choice applicants don't enroll when they're offered spots in the program?

I heard from NYU around the end of March...I still haven't decided so it's probably me holding them up on reaching out to other candidates! [yikes emoji]
