Great video! That was really helpful.
I'm getting application materials ready currently. I'm planning to apply to mostly international schools- Staedelschule in Frankfurt, Kunste in Berlin, Universitat de Barca in Barcelona. Each of these places has a different way of applying and vastly different deadlines. The schools in the US seem to be more standardized and have more detailed information on their websites about what they want. In the US, I'm looking at MIT, Cranbrook, UCLA, Yale... I figure, while I have the materials flowing, I may as well try, even if it's only throwing money way. I have a background in ceramics, electronic arts, installation and photography so I'll be applying in sculpture. Currently, I'm three weeks deep into writing my statement. It's a pain in the ass to have to define one's self on paper, an incredible time sink, but also very revealing and ultimately useful. I'm hoping to finish today. Anyone else struggling on their statement?
