  1. Fair enough, I applied because my friend told me they had great funding (which they don't), and I've been waitlisted at yale, columbia etc like 2 yrs in a row, so thought I'd try something different. I've heard positive things through the grapevine and a couple of their grads are pretty famous, but I'm just not fully acquainted with the upenn program because they don't really make any rankings lists, etc.
  2. @2222222 thanks! I'd still consider hunter if I were you, based on the pricetag, location, faculty etc. I'm just relaying a sense of what I've seen, but also know people who did great going there, and didn't go into massive debt like you would at other spots. Getting a foot in in New York is pretty priceless. Were you accepted anywhere else? Upenn seems like it should have a lot of clout considering the reputation of the university as a whole- I just don't see a lot of people, especially painters, coming out of there and showing here in NYC. From what I understand it's on the up as a program, I'm just not sure any of these programs are worth taking on tons of debt.
  3. I know people that go to hunter and are unimpressed with a lot of things there. I think their program is overrated and some of the people I know who have gotten in recently make pretty bad work. Did you guys apply to RISD or Columbia, or know anything about Upenn's program?
  4. @junie or anyone else hear from columbia painting? I'm still waiting after being interviewed a while ago and it's killing me. I presume at this point I'm not getting in. Also anyone hear from RISD painting? I was wait-listed at SAIC and accepted at Upenn, but the pricetag is pretty steep and living and working in BK I don't hear a lot about Upenn's program or see their alums doing much, with a couple of high profile exceptions. Is anyone going to Upenn or have more insight on their program? Thanks guys and good luck
  5. Has anyone heard anything about University of Arizona? I'm a painter and was accepted there, and I'm wondering whether to go there or to hold out 'til next year for a more well known program or a better location. Thanks!
