  1. I'm not sure anyone has heard from USC.
  2. Wooohhoooo rejected from UCLA! Im so excited!
  3. Totally random to this thread, but have any of you considered school in Mexico?
  4. If it makes anyone happy - I don't know anything about any programs. And I didn't get in anywhere! Why should I pretend to know anything about X artist who I never heard of until I googled the school? How can I pretend that X program is better than Y program when, dun nuh nuh, you'll have a similar experience at a vast majority of them: you're still you. You can't predict anything about your experience at any given school. I think it's one of the sillier aspects of this whole process.
  5. Keep in mind that illustrators and street artists have always been pretty suspicious of fine arts schools, so there is nothing new there. They've had basically the same argument since the 50's. As well as tattoo artists, and anyone associated with "low-brow" arts. Also note that I'm friends with people from all these demographics, so I'm not being condescending. It's almost more a cultural attitude than anything else. I know street artists with MFAs who are using their credentials so that they can pursue other endeavors, such as public works projects, etc.
  6. I guess I'm feeling like I misunderstand MFAs and I misunderstand the art world in general, these days.
  7. So how many of you are actually planning to teach? I find that I'm becoming increasingly cynical
  8. I didn't interview but I got a post-bac offer and I got the email.
  9. Undecided at UCLA still, though I assume that is just a logistical thing.
  10. UCLA is torturing us with these Summer Sessions emails.
  11. I think if you can talk knowledgeably about the things you posted you would kick ass in the interview. I think that most of the people at UTK had little teaching or no teaching experience when they were accepted.
  12. This sounds like you're supposed to have teaching experience already. I thought the point was to learn to teach? I don't have any doubts about my critiquing ability, but in terms of teaching methodology and theory I wouldn't even know where to begin. Am I misinterpreting this?
  13. I had a dream that I was at Columbia and they were signing my acceptance letter... I asked them if I was dreaming and they said "yes, of course you are" and I woke up. Bah!
  14. Painting notices went out for UCLA?
  15. an MFA isn't going to keep me from thinking about the next round.
  16. Unless Columbia sends out an NDA with their acceptance/interview letters, I don't think anyone has heard from them either way.
  17. It isn't geared toward students, certainly, but I'd be willing to bet that other schools would love to know about a program that was trying to undercut them by forcing early decisions. Personally, I think that is shady as hell.
  18. Sorry dude, that sucks. Just keep working.
  19. I've done a lot of hard thinking and made every consideration and, sorry, but I can't accept your proposal. Good luck in all of your future marriage attempts!
  20. Man, if I asked someone to marry me and they waited this long to decide I would tell them good riddance.
  21. Did anyone else get an email from UCLA talking about Summer Programs? Reminded me of that damn Columbia email.
  22. I've stopped anxiously awaiting grad news and have started anxiously awaiting a delivery of art supplies.
