Honesty, you will get in! The best advice is to treat it like an artist talk; be yourself. Pose questions back and remember if they select you for an interview, it's because they see something special in you.

yale

what did they ask? any questions stood out? and did u have to present anything

any advice on that interview with sculpture? I also have an interview this year, Is there anything they asked or things you gain from the faculty?

both I am curious on interview processes.

What questions did they ask you? During the interview, any questions stood out.

I think its a good idea

These interviews are nerve wracking!!!! Any tips on folks who have already been thru this process? Things to consider & common threads you found

Quick question on why you applied to Yale and was it your first choice? Just want to pick folks brains on why they decided now to get their mfs and why certain programs

Has anyone in here had an interview with Yale before? I am curious about what they ask and what the chances are of getting in after the interviews. I am sorry to folks who did not get in; this whole thing is stressful because interviews do not guarantee acceptance, just interest. because we do not know how many others are being interviewed. Painting and printmaking are the toughest because there are more slots. do not feel bummed!

I got an interview in sculpture from yale !!!

unless u plan on going there, I would say go, is that your first choice?

I schedule for zoom unless they can pay for my travels.

I got an interview to SAIC in 3 of their departments, photo, sculpture and fiber studies Lmaoo, it should’ve just be fiber and photo but I submitted by accident. Well now I 3 interviews in one way on zoom back to back 😂😂😂. Still waiting on Yale and VCU those are my only schools left. We almost done guys let’s all keep working!!! The finish line is close. Also any tips on saic interview??

I love this whole forum. TBH, that rejection does not validate your creativity. You are an artist and very creative, and no matter if a school accepts you or doesn't, don't feel discouraged; keep working! We all have our time for specific opportunities, plus I am sure you applied to more schools than one school. UV Is missing out on you, and it is not your fault to feel terrible about that. Keep grinding. I am sure something better is coming your way. Hope for the best and pray for the worst.

How was the Saic and VCU interview?

This is so helpful; thank you so much. I think faculty do make or break; I will research them and see if they align with my practice and how I can learn from them!

For those in here that’s applied to Columbia University, I just wanted to ask why did you? And what resource you found out about the school that attracted you to the school?

What departments? And what’s dates did you schedule your interview? I applied to photo n sculpture for Saic.

Any tips on answers for interviews ? I am curious what did yall say when they asked yall why you want a Mfa? Just want to see how folks are thinking. Also any tips on certain questions that may be asked?

You applied through what ? Sculpture or fiber and materials? And did they send a email or you find it on the portal? Just curious bc I applied through both and photo and got nothing yet.
