I got into TIE too! 6 of us right here- this is awesome! Anyone has any idea how large is TIE cohort?

Anyone got anything related to financial info?

I can't access it either. Says "I'm not authorised to see the site" and it's limited only to admitted students. I almost had a shock and double checked the admit letter

Nothing from LDT- atleast on my end. Though, @elvenitocho received a reply stating we should hear back this week. I know it's hard waiting- I, for one, have become obsessed with the refresh button on my email app

Good to know everything was alright!

no news from LDT today.

Yes and Yes! LDT and TIE! I hope we both hear some good news tomorrow. Even though I'm living in California, the days seem eternally long to me too!

I'm a ux designer and stanford application system made me cringe! It was by far the worst I had encountered among all colleges. Filling the application sequentially was absurd when I had to click next 14 times to reach the last section for a small edit. And this view checklist- it's such an important component- and yet hidden behind a button placed at the most confusing junction. I wonder if they realize how poorly this reflects on the college. But I guess, Stanford being Stanford, they can get away with this. By the way, which program have you applied to? We should hear something by tomorrow. The wait is killing me!

Wow, I never checked that! But it says "complete" for me.

Mine says "submitted." Since it's done manually, maybe they forgot to update your status? I think they would've contacted you if additional materials were required.

Hi everyone, Long time stalker of this thread- first time posting. I've applied to the TIE program. The wait is killing me! Best of luck to us all!

Based on the dates of past few years, Masters results should be out by this weekend (around 28th)... Is anyone else nervous?

It's great to read your view on Parsons Design & Tech. I am struggling between Dynamic Media Institute, Mass Arts and Design & Tech, Parsons. Though I'm leaning towards Mass Arts because of the extremely high cost of Parsons(and I did not get any financial aid!). Any thoughts on Mass Arts?Anyone?

thanks leetimko! I am an international student from India. Since, I can't go and visit either of the 2 programs, I am trying to gather as much information as I can!

Any thoughts on how to ask for more financial aid? Should I mention names of other institutes to bargain? Or should I show my complete interest in the program and thus ask for more aid? Any other strategy? Is there anyone who has successfully baragianed for more aid?

How would you compare Parsons (Design and Technology) vs Mass Arts (Dynamic Media)? Parsons is way too expensive but everybody I know has a high regard fro the program. Plus, being in NYC, there might be internship opportunities available that might help meet some costs. On the other hand, Mass Arts has an excellent program and is half the cost as that of Parsons. Boston is a great city and there may just be a chance to collaborate with MIT Media Lab. Any thoughts will be highly appreciated.

Congrats Babar_Suleman!!

i can't access my financial aid info yet!.. says "This page is not enabled for current user role"

yes... they mailed on 7th march..

how did they inform you about the scholarship?

So, everybody who got accepted into Parsons had the note on their letter?! now i just feel funny about it if its a spam! They did get to me for some time though! Have you heard anything from them on merit based scholarship ?

Got an official acceptance letter in the mail today by Parsons! With a handwritten note saying: "Your work is very good. You should be proud! " Super happy!!! Still waiting for info on financial aid though..

Giving each applicant being considered a login is sensible. However, I do not think they would have written a congratulatory note on acceptance for all the applicants. It will be just ridiculous on their part. And esp. when the login is so easily accessible. Also, why will they provide an option of making a tution deposit. I am still waiting for the official letter to erase all doubts. However, if one can open the tab to the congratulatory note, I think it means an acceptance.

Have you heard anything from RISD?

I applied to MFA, Design and Technology
