	Same, I'm having a hard time choosing between SVA and SAIC!!! I'm a returning student - kind of a mid-career artist with a young family on the west coast, which is why I'm doing the low res programs. Would love feedback on which one might be best for my career!!
 - 
	I got into SVA and SAIC for the low res MFA - I'm a painter. I'm torn because of SAIC's great reputation and SVA's NYC! Finances aside, I'd love to hear a few opinions on which school might benefit me most in my career. I live on the west coast.

	I got into the Low-Res MFA at PNCA, SAIC & SVA. Trying to make a decision now. What about you?
 - 
	Hi! I got into PNCA, and several east coast schools as well. Do you know where you're going yet?
 - 
	Yep - makes sense ~
 - 
	Thank you - I think they're both good options. I live in a smaller city on the west coast now, and am unable to move for a very long time. How do you think this would impact my exhibition opportunities post-grad from either institution? Part of the reason I'm going to grad school is for the connections in general, and for showing.

	This is great info - thank you - I had heard that SVA is for profit. I got about a 20% tuition scholarship at SAIC. I live on the west coast, and am not able to move for a long time. Given that I'm on the west coast (in not the biggest city), does it even make a difference if I do my low res MFA in NYC or Chicago in terms of showing post-graduation? I certainly want to make those great connections, but am concerned about my actual physical location for that, frankly.

	Hey - I got into SVA and SAIC low res as well - Feeling really torn between the lure of NYC and SAIC's reputation. SVA offered me 25% tuition, and SAIC less - I hope someone responds for both of our sakes now! Where do you live by the by?
 - 
	Hi, I appreciate you offering up your perspective to us here. I applied as a painter for Summer 2021. Do you know what percentage of students are accepted to the program? Thanks!

SVA, SAIC, Univ of the Arts, MassArt or MICA? Low Res MFA
Ruby123Mark replied to squidgal's topic in Decisions, Decisions
I really never even considered an overseas school, although I certainly would have if I'd have thought of it! The tuition differences would make that mighty appealing to me as well!- 11 replies

I think SAIC is really expensive, although I haven't worked out the numbers yet. And I'd rather be in NYC than Chicago. That said, there is there reputation to consider. I'm just interested to see if I get in at this point. I've applied to all low res programs.- 11 replies

I had an interview with SVA for the low res program, and then got the acceptance about a week later. No news from Bard or SAIC. Anyone heard from Bard or SAIC?- 11 replies
