I was accepted into both and am trying to decide which to accept. Anyone have any insight into the relative strengths of each program? Sending strength to everyone else out there making tough decisions! -
Has anyone heard back from MA programs in critical/visual and/or curatorial studies for Fall 2021? I applied to Columbia (MODA), SAIC, and CCS Bard and I’m super anxious about... everything— potential interviews, admissions decisions, program funding, etc. Anyone in the same boat?? Any insights??

Hey any thoughts/comments would be super appreciated! I got accepted into MFA Photo program 2021 at SAIC and CalArts. Does anyone have any impressions on either school in general or the photo program/faulty/student body specifically? Anything is worth sharing. Just trying to cast a wide net of opinions as I try to make this decision.

I've applied to several Low Res MFA programs. I'm a returning student and did not expect all these acceptances. Additionally, two schools have offered funding ranging from one-third to one-half. The other 3 have told me that there are offers but they do not yet have numbers available. Commuting is possible at SVA. The others would require 6-8 weeks per year in a dorm which sounds more hellish every time I think about it. Should I put on my big girl panties and go to SAIC as it is my first choice? Should I go to SVA because it is almost as highly ranked and I get to sleep in my own bed and make local connections even though I hate commuting? Should I go to MassArt because it is more affordable and I really liked the professor who heads the program? If any of the schools that haven't given me numbers yet turn out to be fullride, should I just automatically go there? Are any of these schools so crappy as to avoid consideration? Any so wonderful that I should automatically forsake all others? Do rankings even matter? Thanks for your help!- 11 replies

Can anyone give me some suggestions between SAIC Post-Bacc Painting and Cranbrook MFA Painting? Cranbrook offered an MFA program but their painting program isn't very strong (Ranked 13 by US. NEWS), SAIC offered a Post-Bacc but they have a much stronger painting program, and I will need to apply again the end of this year for their MFA program or other MFA painting programs. I personally prefer the location of Chicago and I think I slightly prefer SAIC's style as Cranbrook is a totally "work on your own, critic by your classmates" system. I feel a curriculum offers more resources from various professors that are easier to reach then dig on your own. If I choose SAIC Post-Bacc I will need to take all the risks that if I am not able to get into their MFA program or any other painting programs for FALL 2019.....but I really want to go to a very strong painting MFA program since the tuitions are so expensive anyway..... Please give me some suggestions! Thanks!

anyone knows this program？ Is it good or not？ Because I also receive a offer from Rinehart in MICA, and waiting for Cranbrook's interview. -
Did anyone in the US receive SAIC's art and technology study admission this fall? I already got an interview last month, but have not received any information yet. I already knew someone outside the US already got admitted by email notice. If someone in the US got admitted please gave some information. Thanks!

Hey Guys, I remember being in undergrad and sometimes feeling so distant from my peers because I was an international student. Well, here I am again on this voyage about to feel even weirder, this time as a grad student. I thought that we should have a space where we could be able to share experiences, answer questions, give advice, or just a space where you say what makes you feel ok about yourself. Good luck everyone! Disclaimer: I worked with International Services during my undergrad but this does not make me an immigration official. Although I can give my opinion on certain situations based on past experience, I recommend contacting your school directly about these questions.

Greetings all. Any though's on SVA's Photo, Video and Related Media program versus the School of the Art Institute of Chicago photo program, or just the two schools in general? What about Pratt's Digital Imaging MFA? I think Chicago is great and would like to move there, but NYC seems to be the place for anything photo related--but don't want to fool myself. I'm more of a fine art shooter than commercial but I know there's crossover. Anyone pick a school and then regret it and drop out to try again the following year? Thanks

I am pretty new to this forum, so forgive me if this question has been asked repeatedly. I am in the process of researching mfa programs for photography (starting Fall 2012). Does anyone have any advice as to what programs are good "fall backs". I am currently thinking about applying to 4 top tier schools, and 2 fall back schools. The 4 I know I want to apply to are Yale, SAIC, RISD, and CalArts. Also, any advice about interviews? (assuming I make the cut! haha)
