I was accepted to SVA and Otis for Fine Arts. Any advice? Anyone have any comments on SVA? Thanks

Has anyone heard back from the SVA waitlist?

Hi! I would love some advice. I was admitted to Otis College of Art and Design and Art Center College of Design, both in California. I was also waitlisted at SVA. I am not sure what to do. I didn't love Art Center, even though it's rated well. Any opinions about SVA vs. Otis? I presently live in Los Angeles, but got my BFA from NYU years ago. Thank you so much for any thoughts -- I am an installation artist and applied to "new genres" programs.

How did you find out?

I applied to Skowhegan as well, but also applied to programs in France because I just it there. I got into a Parsons Paris Creative Residency program and CAMAC. Very excited. Going to Parsons Paris.

Found out I am waitlisted at SVA (MFA Fine Arts) and accepted to Art Center College of Design. Anyone have any thoughts about Art Center or think I have a chance of getting into SVA? I was also accepted to Otis College and I really like that school. Thanks!

I want to be completely honest here. I don't think not getting in to UCLA should make you question grad school at all - in my opinion. I live in Los Angeles and went several times to their open studios to look at the work. It didn't think it was good or interesting - except for one incredible painting student. I also thought the students were homogenous - similar ethnicity and age.

Wow, that's an incredible deal...maybe I should have applied there. Can I ask where else you were accepted? OH, I just got an artist residency at Camac in France this summer...just FYI. Thanks!

Love your work! Very moving.

I want it to mean that , but I'm not sure. I guess I will call on Tuesday (if they are closed for Presidents Day). I wish there was more of an explanation. Did you apply anywhere else? And do you like Otis? Thanks and best of luck!

Is anyone applying to OTIS? I just checked my online application summary and it says "Decision Made" and "Administrative Accept" -- but I'm not sure if that means that they have accepted me on one level and now waiting for the MFA program? Does anyone know? Thanks!

Has anyone heard from New Genres UCLA? Thanks!

Thank you. I did visit schools on the west coast where I live, but not the east coast. I'll just have to leave it up to gods of the grad school...whatever that means.

Actually this fall. I assume that they may be very busy right now. This is my first time applying and I didn't meet with all the professors or contact them, but I guess I wanted to try to do something, but don't want it to have a negative affect. Thank you
