welp. I was accapted at brooklyn College, and waitlisted at Columbia. I think the cost of bk college and the fact they gave me $0 in aid makes me doubt actually attending as I am out of state. Kinda wondering how others are feeling about their options and costs and actual attendance.

-
Rejected from waitlist at hunter, for painting

I am still on hunter waitlist for painting

I have yet to hear after my vis art painting interview, on feb 27. I assume rejection, i tell myself it is absolutely a rejection, but its hard to move on until you actually get the rejection. or accaptance lol
-
I interviewed at columbia this year, and have heard nothing. I assume rejection at this point. 3 years ago i held out hope with no interview at Columbia until i finally did get the rejection. If you did not interview you are not still in consideration, but kind messed up they dont send rejections for ppl they dont invite to interview

so this is my third cycle, after two cycle of complete rejection. first year i only applied to Yale and was rejected, no interview. second year I applied to Yale, Columbia, VCU, Columbia and UC Davis. again complete rejection, no interviews. that year devastatedd me, and helped me the most, I felt like a complete failure, but used it to drive me to improve I reached out to my friends and community and started seeing as many shows as I could (in Denver) doing studios visits, making friends, showing my face around town for 3 years. this led to a residency this summer where I met even more Denver art ppl. I decided i should give grad school one last try since i made enough work. This year I applied to 6 schools. UCLA - Rejected. Yale Rejected. Rutgers - rejected. Columbia got an interview (but assumed rejection at this point) Hunter interviewed and waitlisted. Brooklyn College, Accepted, and I will be attending in the fall. My point is; it took me a long time to even get an interview, and when I did it felt like I was finally onto something, and you can get into a school that is a good fit for you, but do not feel discouraged, it is a brutal process, even less popular schools are extremely competitive bc of cohort size and composition. don't lose hope, keep making art, and building a community of artists, doing studio visits, getting feedback. keep working on your art and know it can take time! message me if you have any more questions or want more input/ peptalk.

As of today, yes. Have you been on campus or seen their studios? That is something a bit concerned about; the studios. I have not been or seen
