I'm still waiting to hear, so I'm guessing it's not so good news for me, this time around ? Thank you They didn't interview me. I was contacted via email.

Exciting!!!! Me too on both accounts! Are you from the US or UK? I really love RCA but am struggling so much with how I will find the funding as an international student. It would have to mean a significant amount of loans. Anyway, it is nice to be able to connect with someone in a similar spot as me! It is all very overwhelming but exciting at the same time.

I feel like I was probably skipped over. I want to contact them and get an update; I'm just not 100% clear on who to contact. Did you just email the graduate director? thx!! I emailed whatever emails I had from the schools before who I assume to be whoever is in charge of graduate communications. I haven’t heard from U Oregon or Tulane at all from the emails I sent. Though I’m accepting that this year may not be happening. calmly waiting and MjamesPDX 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also an international student, but thankfully my parents will support me financially. Living in London might be expensive, but you will get lots of public exposures at the same time. Still, being an artist itself is risky, and hopefully, we can stand out someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arissss Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Their interview were sent out last month. I knew it because they told me I was the last person they interviewed. But I'm not sure if the program you've applied requires interviews or not. I applied sculpture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nik2 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) 21 hours ago, colores said: Awesome! congrats once again! When was your interview? I had interview with UCLA first, and that was terrible.. because I'm an international student so my English ability isn't perfect so faculty should ask me to repeat some sentences several times. Even they told me I should learn English more. I thought I screwed up the interview becuse they seemed like they have thinking that I cannot catch up the classes. Interview was generally formal, I think. And interview with Cranbrook was great. It was like Critique Class! Interviewer ask me many In-Depth questions. I was so happy she asked me following questions. My major is fine art so I hoped interviewer understands my background, philosophy and concept of artwork deeply!(On the other hand, there was no following questions at UCLA. I think it's because, maybe major is different. I applied to UCLA for Design Media Arts(I have BFA in Sculpture and BA in Art History)) Anyway, it was sooo good talking with interviewer of Cranbrook. I felt Cranbrook is absolutely one of the best schools to develop fine artworks. I got offer from Pratt($60,000 funding/Digital Imaging), UCLA(about $22,000 funding including TA offer/Design Media Arts) and Cranbrook(funding package didn't arrive yet/Sculpture). I cannot decide.. I think New York is so expensive to live although I got $60,000 funding.. If I keep doing my sculpture and installation art, I will go to Cranbrook. But I also hope to learn media art for broadening my field. Sorry, maybe I'm too much talker. I hope this reply answers your question. + If anyone can help me to decide school, please give me some advice. Thank you:) Edited March 6, 2019 by Nik2 MFApainting2019, colores, yueeeee and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiowwn Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Just got accepted from SVA today. I m wandering when will risd send out their decision after interview conducted? I haven’t hear from pratt COMD either, I start to think prolly they don’t do interview. Nothing from parsons either. At this time, I think if the school don’t send any message out, I believe it’s either a No or they are WIP.

I am still waiting to hear from several schools and I need to figure out financial aid because I do not have a penny in savings to cover the remaining tuition + housing in Boston (I have 2 dogs so a roommate situation isn’t ideal for me, but even tiny studios in Boston are very expensive). But of my remaining schools to hear from, SMFA is definitely at the top so I’m determined to find a way to do it. If we both end up in Boston we should meet up!

LadyoftheLake Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 If anyone has been invited to interview with Notre Dame Painting, I beg you, please PM me to put me out of my misery. Or post the info anonymously on the results board https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/post.php Or just post it here. I am desperate about this.

It’s a pretty cheap neighborhood to live in, in Boston. It’s a bit grimy and mostly college kids,, but it gets the job done. I went to BU for undergrad and a lot of people lived around there. There are even some houses you could share with others that could bring the price down. jess_is_over_it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yessssssss Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 For people who have gotten into all/most of their programs - would you mind sharing any tips about how you approached your apps? I’m on the waitlist at a couple places and am thinking I may have to apply again next year. Would love any advice I can get, especially if you applied to any of the big schools and got interviews or have been accepted. Feel free to PM me if you don’t feel comfortable posting here. Thank u for considering ? sorry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ais Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Is paying $22,000 a year for an MFA good/ the average? (That is half tuition and will also have a $10,000 a year stipend) -offer entails 10 hours TA Realising in my position I didn't really think this whole studying in the U.S thing through enough .... $44,000 in debt if I can even miraculously get a loan from my country (UK). Feeling pretty gutted. I thought it was finally my time after non-stop rejections from everything I've applied to the past few years. Any thoughts or fellow UK applicants?
