  1. @sguid or any other lovely painters... Hear any news from U.Oregon or U.Washington yet? Nothing on my side. Le'sigh...
  2. Many Thanks indeed!! I literally stopped posting because of how obnoxious it was to skip over all the excessiveness. Cheers!
  3. lol, I saw that too...I've been watching the MFA results link like a hawk
  4. Interesting the constant UCSB promotion throughout these forum topics...I have good friends in the UCI and UCLA MFA programs and they've had less than stellar things to say (to be polite). Anywho many, many congrats to all the notifications being passed about! I've been a bit MIA but love checkin in to read all the good news!
  5. A glass of wine cures all. Hope you're feeling better- Cheers!
  6. They either googled you or were on this forum (some of last years posts mentioned this-if i'm not mistaken). I was clearly googled before one of my interviews last year as they mentioned a piece on my website that wasn't in my application. Any interest is good interest as far as I'm concerned I say look on the upside definitely!
  7. Welcome Graphic Designer! And me too Mies23! My fingers are crossed for both of us and congrats to everyone else for hearing good news!!
  8. @hwrios haha, that's just cruel! Last year programs started sending out catalogues for their program(s) around acceptance times...imagine a thick, heavy envelope in the mail from your dream program....ugh. Let the obsessing begin!
  9. Curious on everyones thoughts regarding a deadline being extended or a sudden grace period for a program? Not enough applicants applied? Not enough GOOD applicants applied? or....
  10. Hi ArsenicYellow, Thank You for having the courage to post a very sensitive topic/question. I went through a medical trauma during my undergrad and talk about it bluntly/openly in my statement of intent as it has made me a better artist and contributed to my work. You could perhaps take the same approach, simplifying it by saying "I went through/had to work through some very personal issues during undergraduate and believe that ultimately overcoming those personal obstacles has contributed to my work-but unfortunately it also is reflected in my GPA"- something along those lines. I hope this helps! This said I really think it was a bit inappropriate for a professor to mention that admissions boards don't want anyone with issues/ect. I'm sorry but most artists have issues, hence we make badass art. Art is therapy. You can def over-share to the point where it distracts from your work though/TMI...my advice take the relevant information that explains your GPA, (I went through a very personal trauma) and then tie it back to your art. Pushing lots of wonderful luck your way!
  11. Congrats Flow!! And @Arsenic don't let it get ya down, you've got two interviews! Keep the good streak going
  12. No Interviews...that I've ever heard of. Last years forum I believe they were calling students who were "wait listed" ect. So you will hear from them directly at some point. I love going through last years Freakout post because it gives a great idea of potential time frames with regards to hearing back.
