  1. A recurring theme with long beach is its cost vs. value. I'm also excited by the size of the program and faculty- like you mentioned, you'll probably find a member to get along with. What other schools were you considering beyond nyu?

  2. Hey,

    Thanks for your response! Yes, accepted for photo. Studios for every student is definitely a plus, especially for the price. I was accepted to sdsu as well, which seems like a very different program- small, insular, homogenous. Not really what I'm looking for but some grad students get their own undergrad courses to teach. The 'studios' there are pretty lackluster.

  3. hey, i saw you were accepted to csu long beach. are you thinking of going? i was accepted too but haven't visited the program yet- have an appointment for next week. would love to hear your thoughts if you've been.

  4. accepted to csu long beach photography + sdsu photography with scholarship today (not sure how much $, not sure why they didn't tell me!) + rejected from ucsb photography. sdsu is only giving me a week to decide to qualify for the scholarship.
  5. really hoping to hear from csu long beach. anyone? anyone? bueller?
  6. rejected from uci via letter the other day. guess i can forget about going to a uc!
  7. rejected from unm (photography) via mail today. one of my top picks. was expected, still burns! also said i was rejected from the art history program instead of studio art.
  8. congrats to you! i applied to ucla and unm for photo also- you must be ecstatic!
  9. congrats! just curious, when did you get your application in? seems early for admittance since the deadline was a month ago, every other school i applied to has at least a 2 month wait for response. i applied for photo too, haven't heard anything.
  10. i really wish i found this forum before i started the application process, but, no that it is over it is great to see that i'm not alone in my unadulterated insecurity and anxiety. Haven't heard from any yet. Plus, I've had no work for two weeks (i'm a freelance editor) which isn't helping my self-esteem or easing my anxiety! I've been having dreams too- last night i had a 'nightmare' where a friend of mine, also a photographer but has no interest in going back to school (mostly shoots commercial stuff anyway) was accepted into the mfa photo program at risd. she didn't apply, they just asked her to join the program. so i'm screaming at my boyfriend, showing him her work, which was a book with two photographs and two words written poorly in pencil on adjacent pages and i'm all "this cannot be serious?!" One great thing about this experience is that it has taught me that this is undoubtedly what i want to do with my life and that i'm correct in wanting to belong. Just don't know if the schools i applied to feel the same way. UCLA UCI UCSB SDSU CSULB UNM
