Does anyone have thoughts on Parsons DT vs. NYU ITP vs. UW HCDE?

I haven't heard anything from Berkeley, it's the last school I'm waiting on and totally understand how you feel! @yona thank you! I am super excited about the program -- just received admission for UW HCDE and Parsons DT (didn't get an email from Parsons, just checked portal) as well. I am currently debating between Parsons and NYU and would love anyone's thoughts on the differences between the two!

Hi all, Was wondering if anyone has had success in deferring an offer from NYU for a year, and if so, what circumstances would allow for a successful deferral. I am sitting on an offer for NYU ITP. I have been simultaneously recruiting at a tech company and just received an offer for a creative specialist/design role there. Ideally I'd love to do both and am really having trouble making the "right" decision. Any advice on this front appreciated!

Thank you!! I got rejected from SVA (don’t have a traditional design background), but am also waiting back on Parsons. What are y’all’s thoughts on ITP vs. DT? @voxpop @ixdmfaplease

Congratulations!! The wait is finally over :’) I also got an admission letter; you thinking of accepting?

Also applied to Parsons DT, NYU ITP, UW HCDE, and Berkeley MDes. My top choices are probably Parsons and NYU, but the rejection was still a blow regardless. Thank you! Trying to keep my hopes up ? Transitioning fields and charting your own path is hard.

IxD! I don't come from a "traditional" design background (studied marketing for undergrad and now work in tech product marketing), so it was definitely a long-shot. And thanks, will continue to keep the thread posted

Must be a good sign! I just logged into the portal and saw I was rejected.

Looking at last year's results, I know NYU is supposed to come out with acceptances around this week. So nervous ?

I haven't heard back from any of the programs yet I saw that two people have posted an acceptance and rejection from Berkeley MDes, though. Have been compulsively checking each application portal and still no word

Applied to NYU, Parsons, Berkeley, SVA, and UW. Attended the NYU group interview. Waiting to hear back as well!
