Didn’t apply to Columbia but got into Yale photo and have never exhibited outside of on-campus undergrad shows! I don’t think they take work/exhibition history into consideration. Helpful if you have it but not harmful if you don’t. 1000% worth reapplying IMO. Especially if you were waitlisted. Everyone I’ve known who’s reapplied to Yale after getting waitlisted has gotten in

First of all congrats!! People don’t usually give up spots at Yale but it’s not unheard of! I know someone who made it off the waitlist for Yale Photo, and John Pilson (who’s faculty there) was actually admitted off the waitlist! They did say in their open house that they don’t rank their waitlist and there’s usually 4-5 people on it max. And who they admit off of the waitlist is about who would fit in best to the existing cohort and not about one artist being “better” than another. So idk that there’s anything to be done on your end. It’s an achievement in and of itself as much as it sucks to be in limbo. Crossing my fingers for you! Hope this was at all helpful

Congrats!!!!

Congrats to you too!!! Hopefully see you there

I got into Yale :’)

I’m 25! Mid 20s is actually the time most people go back for their MFA, so if you’re looking to be part of the norm you’re exactly on track. But there’s no such thing as too late!

Photo! What about you?

Biting my finger nails off knowing Yale decisions are most likely coming out tonight or tomorrow 😬😬

I know! I interviewed last Thursday so less than a 1 week turn around feels insane haha. And I applied for photo!

The panelists during my interview! I edited my post to clarify, sorry !

Asked in my interview, and the Yale faculty said decisions will go out by the middle of this week!

First time applying! I only applied to 2 schools. Rutgers - accepted Yale - interviewed and awaiting response Good luck to everyone!! We've got this!

Got the acceptance call from Rutgers this afternoon!

Has anyone interviewed for Yale yet? Did you prepare your own presentation or did they share the work on their end? A bit confused by the instructions! Thanks
