  1. Congrats to all those accepted, and good luck to those waitlisted or waiting for the next round. I decided to accept an offer from The Studio for Interrelated Media at MassArt. If there is anyone else who will be attending MassArt, please message me.
  2. MassArt emailed me an acceptance letter today. I applied to the SIM program. Anyone have any thoughts on declining offers for another try next year applying to more favorable schools?
  3. Time to clarify the ambiguity. Success here is not fame or "personal success", but in a sense of favor. Also, Morin's success, not fame, may be due to his getting others to agree with him, hence pleasing others.
  4. Thanks. It seems the only good thing to come out of all this rejection is knowing what not to do, and by elimination, try to please the commitee.
  5. Congrats to the accepted! Best of luck, but I am not one of them. Sulking in coming to terms with a second round, I offer my thoughts on non-acceptance. Often, it is the case that success is not contingent upon a matter of time dedicated to improvement towards prefection of personal interest, but rather upon doing what others like or prefer. Like many of us, I have spent a great deal of time and study trying to nourish my practice, my ideas, and my artwork with my own interests. Evidently, dedication is optimistic bullshit. Those who were accepted may disagree, claiming dedication is what got them accepted. But this is a fallacy, it may be the case that your work, by accident, catered to the commitee and they liked it. If dedication to personal interests is the key, then most all of us should be accepted. If dedication is worth any value of success, it must be dedication to serving the interests of others. Here is to the non-accepted, Cheers!
  6. I applied to the SIM program and was interviewed by Professor Moser and others not two weeks ago. I have yet to hear anything.
  7. Rejected by NYU Steinhardt. I would prefer just "REJECTED" over the bs. I dont need some fake apologetic rationalized response to make it all seem ok. A rejection is a rejection, thats it. If anything, tell me exactly why I got rejected.
  8. Sorry to hear that. Best of luck on the other schools.
  9. Just finished my interview with MassArt. Still have yet to hear from any other programs. No email from Hunter, Im not sure what to think about that.
  10. Different schools have different policies. I looked into mine and found out they disable it two years after graduation. You might check with your school to find out. Then maybe you can transfer or save any emails or files of importance.
  11. I got an email from NYU Gallatin yesterday. They requested more materials, which is, I hope, indicative of interest in accepting me. So, if anyone applied to NYU Gallatin, stay in there!
