Yeah I just wanted to get a quick feel for the student population at a couple of programs. Thanks!

Heyo - Does anyone have a link to the website that has admissions rates for each program?

Word. It does make art stars, but they all seem to be very, for lack of a better term, vanilla haha Plus one current student has been in a Whitney Biennial. It seems to be a place where artists who are already pretty well known go to get even more well known. & hang out/collaborate w each other & the faculty.

Haha def not a painter - new genres, video, performance - all of which I know UCSD has an amazing record with, but I love the heavy critical aspect of the program at UCI (not that that's not at UCSD), amongst other things, & it's closer to LA, where I currently reside. My partner and cats would stay here so while we've discussed how it's going to work if I go to UCSD, UCI is still a program I'm super interested in.

Any acceptances to UCI yet? I feel like someone else posted something about already having a great offer but really wanting to hear from all of his/her top choices before accepting anything, and I'm in the same boat. Womp womp indeed.

I'm pretty sure USC interviews the candidates that will be both wait listed and admitted. The others I'm not so sure about but oftentimes not hearing anything when others have been both admitted and rejected means wait list! Which is good on one hand but can be a whole different type of extended torture on the other haha Good luck!

I called and was told that they were still figuring everything out. Hopefully tomorrow will bring some news :/

Honestly people who got into programs and then are asking if anyone knows anything about said programs is sort of offensive. It's grad school, bros. Come on.

Some schools do, some schools don't. You can always email and ask something like "I'm aware that notifications have gone out & am wondering about the status of my application blah blah still very interested blah blah etc."

MIT rejection too! It's amazing how whatevz rejections feel when you've already gotten into a rad program. & to those facing the possibility of not getting in this year (esp if it's not your first round), don't give up! This was my third time & first time applying to UCSD. It has to be the right program.

Rejected from UCLA via email. w007.

Has no one else here been accepted to UCSD? I'm a little nervous about the whole meet & greet dealio on April 6th & 7th - It'd be nice to be going in knowing someone.

Congrats! Sick program.

via email or snail mail? & sorry brah

Ditto!
