I just called VCU to ask if their painting decisions were finished and she said they were NOT. HMMM....
-
yes interviewed with both...one of the status still says in review but I heard a lot of people got their decisions already
Have you called them? It might be worth a try.
-
Waitlisted at SVA! That was a surprise, I figured I was out completely.
Still nothing from VCU. My status hasn't changed on my application or anything. Thinking about calling them...
-
I logged into my Columbia application. Where would it say if you're rejected?
On the front page, below the normal stuff says "application decision" or something like that.

Thanks for your perspective!
I agree. Personally I don't feel discouraged, more just like i'm in this weird limbo where I don't know whether to move on to the next battle, or hold out hope for this round. The silence is deafening, and without wanting to, I put a huge part of my energy into waiting, which is taking away from my time painting, creating etc. Any one else feel this way? I've been on the edge of my seat for over a month and a half, every day hoping for good news.
I definitely spent a lot of time worrying about what was going to happen - checking all my accounts, checking my email a billionty times. And now it's probably all for naught! I'm going to move soon, get a new job (hopefully), and try to focus on working on my art and giving it another go. But I really am trying to just relax about it. You have so little control over the process.

Accepted into SAIC Painting via a phone call this morning (which will be followed by snail mail packet).
Congrats!!
-
I completely understand, that is exactly how I feel about SFAI. They have over 100 grad students. I haven't really decided how i feel about being in a program that large.
Yeah, SMFA has over a hundred. My undergrad was really small (fine arts had 12 students) and I really feel like I flourished in that type of environment. You know all of your professors and all of your fellow students and it feels like a real community. It would definitely be jarring for me to be in such a large class.

do any one of you guys know if RISD has already notify anybody yet?
I talked to someone at an interview who was waitlisted at RISD and she said they told her they had made all their decisions (this was for painting). I didn't hear it from them, so take it as you will.
-
YAY!!! Congrats!!
Thanks, but I don't think I'll be going. The program was waaay too big for my tastes. However, it's good to FINALLY have an acceptance under my belt and I will definitely consider it once I get the financial aid info from them.
-
Has anyone's VCU online status changed? Mine doesnt say "Complete ready for review" anymore.
Anyone know if they interview everyone before they are accepted?
Mine still says "complete ready for review"
-
Got a call today, accepted to SMFA.
-
Rejection from MICA via letter. Bummertown, USA, once again. Though by now, I've just accepted that I'll be going into round 3 of applying for grad schools.
-
I wish I had gotten all the remaining responses I've been waiting for this week, but I'll take what I got (one more rejection and one more acceptance) and hope next week things will come to a wrap... Good luck to everyone else on the same boat, congrats on the acceptances and for those that didn't get in this time, keep your fighting spirit, do good work and get ready for round two!
It will be round 3 for me!!! (granted I did get accepted to a school during round 1 but due to unfortunate circumstances I could not attend)
-
It was after the first round of rejections and acceptances had been sent, they accidentally sent out unsigned acceptance letters to around 30 people at the end of march. It was crushing, but it taught me to look out for a signature in a letter!
Ugh, how can a school have something like that happen?
Also, kazoo, I feel I should do what you've done in your signature with rejections! I'm already prepping for another year of working and applying again....sigh...
-
Yeah. I was one of them. It was awful.
Whoa! So they sent out acceptances to the wrong people?? That must have been crushing.
-
No freaking kidding, VCU needs to get their act together. I called the VCU graduate office, and they said our online application won't tell us whether or not we've been accepted.
Did they say when they're going to be sending out decisions?
-
Rejection from Rutgers, ugh!
Yup, I got it too. I was hoping to at least be on the waitlist.
-
Have you guys noticed if you log onto the Embark portal where we filled out out applications and clicked track status decisions seem to have been made already for some of other where others it still says "in review." I wonder what that means...?
Mine says "decision ready"
-
And btw, I know I'm late to add to this but, I finally got a chance to look at the 2013 MFA rankings . . . is it just me or was there a ton of shake up?!
Yes! Univ of Penn practically dropped off the list, which is very surprising! They were like #14 before I think.
-
Rejection letter from Rutgers today...getting really tired of all these rejections.
-
I got accepted to Carnegie Mellon today and I can't pay for it.
My plan of action: I won't think of it today.
I was accepted to Cranbrook last year and couldn't get a cosigner for a loan of $7500, so I couldn't go. I was so bummed. But I'm back on the horse again! It's all you can do really.
-
I thought about selling my eggs, but I would have complications from the hormones you have to inject. So now the plan is loans, loans, beautiful loans.
-
I was upfront with my job that I would be applying to schools and hopefully attending college in the fall. My job is retail though, so it is not hard to walk away from!
-
Rutgers info: A friend just got a letter today (in the mail) for acceptance to Rutgers in Visual Arts. I guess they're still sending them out. I didn't apply there but I thought people who did would appreciate the update.
Crazy jelly! Send an acceptance to meeeee Rutgers!!
