Definitely apply to Rutgers. If you want to be a contemporary artist in a more experimental slant this is your best choice without being in NY. I heard Bard was not in a good state for their MFA program.

NYAA is mostly into traditional academic art styles which is hardly my area of interest as a cutting-edge contemporary artist. If you want do an atelier style of education then go for it!

Hey folks! I am a 1st year MFA student here at ArtCenter and definitely I can walk any of you through the whole process :D. This is an example of my 1st show for crit I did last month- https://www.artcentermfa.net/exhibitions/exhibition/albert-wang Feel free to ask away (doing my 2nd solo and 1st group shows as we speak)... peace

I am moving to Pasadena tomorrow to head off for ArtCenter's MFA program (studio art). Very excited!

Checking to see if anyone else here is heading to ArtCenter?

I selected ArtCenter. Anyone else going there this fall?

So quiet this past week here...

I never include detail shots. The committee I don't think have time to look at the works in that amount of detail usually.

Okay correction: it was a half-tuition scholarship but still better than that of SAIC. Word.

Heard back from the ArtCenter financial aid office and it's a done deal. Got I think a pretty much full ride tuition and then some. Will take out 21k/year loans for food, housing, and misc. expenses. The journey is over and hope to see other ArtCenter folks this fall! Cheerios.

This week hoping to hear back from ArtCenter financial aid office. And more snow in Utah...

ArtCenter is looking to be more likely at this point

Got my final rejection... from Calarts. Here is the final tally.

Still awaiting financial aid results from ArtCenter and hopefully I can hear back soon. Calarts probably next week? No decision yet.

I don't quite agree as I have lived here in the Frankfort Market area and commuted to work at Market Street for years. The crime and homicides were pretty bad when I was there from 1997 until 2004 and had gotten worse by the time I left to Salt Lake City. My older friend got accosted and nearly assaulted on SEPTA one afternoon. Even City Center was pretty desolate and bad. If one attends Temple I would recommend avoiding Kensington and North Philly. I think Northern Liberties was all right but walking around downtown was not particularly good to me by myself late nights. Even South Street has gotten a lot worse. I do like ICA on U Penn campus and the Museum but the only safe area I felt was probably around the Rittenhouse Sqaure area.
