    Was there an excess of MFA applications this year?

    You're correct, that was an assumption on my part.  I read some articles on there being more applications in economic down years, but I'm not sure if that applies to the Covid situation and art schools.

    Anyone know whats up with schools doing this? Screenshot below of an email from Pratt, that says they are accepting applications through April 15 ...... I'm assuming this year was really big for applications so curious as to why schools would do this.

    That does seem concerning.  You would think with an excess of applications this year they would have enough to fill the programs.

    Interior Design. Did you have any luck with contacting them and getting any money? I am about to do that 

    I'm attempting to do that, but I'm not seeing much on their website about any need based aid, so I'm skeptical it will work.

    This is for people who got accepted to Pratt: Did your scholarship offer come in your acceptance letter emailed to you or was it in the letter mailed to you? The email contained no scholarship but I have not received the mailed letter yet. Just wondering!

    I received no scholarship as well.  It would come in the acceptance letter if there was any.  What program major are you considering?

  5. Does anyone know how Pratt is perceived in the artworld?  It seems like you hear more about Columbia, Hunter, Yale, UCLA, SAIC these days.  Does Pratt graduate shows get a lot of attention from curators?  What is the general perception of the school these days in painting specifically.

    What program did you apply to there? I’m still waiting to hear from them. 

    Painting/drawing.  It's hard to find a lot of info about the program on line.  I would have loved to be able to visit the campus and facilities before making concrete decision.

    Actually one of our old classmate is right there for Pratt paintings. And she loves it! It's a fairly laid back program with lots of wonderful people who are supportive. And yes, a few of them do make it in the NYC art world too.

    Thanks for the response, I'm glad your friend is liking it!  When you say laid back what do you mean? I'm looking for an intense critiquing environment and am wondering if its something they provide?

    Hey all,

    I applied to Parsons, Pratt, UCLA, Hunter Cuny, RISD, Yale and Columbia MFA programs. So far I have had one very promising and positive interview with Parsons and I have been rejected by Yale. (The program at Yale was a super longshot with only 3 spots open in my area, so I had no illusions of getting in.) But has anyone heard of from any of these other programs? I am also wondering if they're going to request interviews too.

    Good luck everyone!

    I applied to Pratt as well but have heard nothing.  I don't think anyone else on here have heard from them either.  I'm applying for painting.  How about you?
