I know I am getting these in sort of late, but here is my almost final count:
SFAI- I know that my app made it through the MFA decisions but STILL waiting to hear on the MA (applied to dual program)
SVA- accepted
Art Center- accepted
MICA- waitlisted
SAIC- rejected (was asked to apply to post bac, but have not heard back yet)
UCLA- rejected
Pratt- rejected
RISD- rejected
Calarts- rejected
UT- rejected
UCSD- rejected
UC Berkeley- rejected
Otis- ?
Carnegie Mellon- rejected
CCA- interviewed, rejected
Well, I am down to SVA and Art Center (and, my fingers are crossed, MAYBE MICA). Does anyone know anything about SVA or Art Center? I have a friend who is currently attending SVA and I am having a hard time getting a feel for the program. I am not sure that it is quite as rigorous as I might like. Art Center is considerably more expensive, however. I know that CCA ranks very well for the graphic design, but despite having visited, I don't know how well they are ranked for fine arts. Suddenly, now that I have a couple of acceptances, I am questioning the quality of the schools. From the posts that I have read it seems that many of us are experiencing this. I thought that by this point in the game, I would know what I wanted to do. I didn't expect this to be so confusing. Any suggestions or thoughts would be very much appreciated.
