Hello All!
I'm planning to apply to several MFA painting/drawing programs for 2012. Needless to say, I'm quite terrified since the admission rates seem so dismal! I plan to apply to several of the selective schools like VCU, Yale, OSU, MICA, etc. However, does anyone have any recommendations for some good MFA painting programs that might be less selective (hence more likely to get accepted)? It would make me feel better to have some "safety" schools as well.
Also, how heavily weighted is the resume in the application? I graduated with my BFA a little over a year ago and I have been making work to build my portfolio, but I can't say I have a terribly impressive resume when it comes to shows, etc.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
