Damn! That sucks, you better call asap. I remember them saying in that preliminary email that if you were missing important items they would contact you, its pretty lame of them for not doing that. Maybe they didn't need the recommendations to make an informed decision?

Thanks! I never bothered to check back in. Its good to see they have all my stuff, guess I just have to wait for a yay or a nay. Good luck to you as well!

What attracted you to Slade?

Im applying to Rutgers too, I checked the results tab, there were three responses that said they were notified March 3.

Congrats! Good to see other Davis people!

I didn't know they had interviews, hopefully they do skype ones and hopefully they start giving notices next week, its been long enough for them.lol

Yeah, Storr is like an art world giant, but still not enough for me to apply, thanks for you vote of confidence though,

Thanks, that's very nice of you. Basically I didn't like the program, I wasn't feeling the professors or the recent grad work, and if I did apply it would be just because of the name, and that's not enough for me, I really want a program I believe in.

Congrats! I was wondering if any painters were going to get it.

Don't make yourself sick, remember its still very early right now to hear back, and with the horrible snowstorm you know its having an effect on a lot of east coast schools. Also remember that all the painting departments are going to have the most applications to go through as opposed to other departments.

Thanks! Yes, Jenny Saville has been a huge influence on me especially my earlier work, she really showed me a way to make art. Although recently I have been looking at a lot of abstraction, artists who use hybrid spaces and systems in their work.

Finally reworked my blog: www.andrewarmas.blogspot.com

Hmm, well when I checked into Embark it didn't really say anything about me being admitted either, maybe they haven't gotten to your application yet or maybe they do painters first or something, it ain't over yet

Did you receive the email stating that they were looking over your application, I got one saying this and that I could find out the status on the 7th but I ended up getting a call today. Congrats on UCSB btw.

Congrats! I was just so stressed about not getting in, I thought for sure I wasn't going to get accepted anywhere, getting that call lifted a huge weight off of me.

Just got a call from UC Davis telling me I'm admitted, woot woot!

Scratch what I said earlier, I just got a call from UC Davis saying I was admitted, I'm so excited. Now I don't have to worry about not getting in any place!

I'm supposed to hear back from UC Davis this coming Monday, and I'm so nervous, haven't heard anything from Tyler or Rutgers. For those applying to Tyler, is there any way of checking your application status online?

Hmm interesting, so then its a bad thing to include drawings in the portfolio or just drawings done from beginning courses?

Awesome, congrats! I didn't know that Tyler had interviews, did you know they interviewed?

My final ending up being: Tyler Rutgers UC Davis all for painting.

Yeah, if its for the whole department then its really not a lot.

Ha! Yeah I got that email from Tyler about checking status, sending in resume/statements. I kind of laughed when I saw the emails of other applicants, wonder if that's just for painting or the entire art department.

Blogspot and Carbonmade are free and easy to use.

Ha! I know exactly how you feel. I told friends/family that I'm applying and they're like "oh you're gonna get in" they don't know how competitive it is and how many people apply for such a small amount of spots, its too stressful. I agree that if I don't get in this round its not going to be for a few years till I apply again, I'm kind of wishing now that I applied to more schools. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed with the rest of you.
