However, it's a good sign that they want to talk to you, and that's what I was told during my interview. They don't talk to candidates they don't think would be a good fit for the program. Expand That's helpful, thanks! Hope you had a good interview.
ohboyy Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Hi UT Austin applicants! Keep an ear out for phone calls for interviews. I received one tonight from a 512 number. If anyone hadms any experience with/info on the program, I'd appreciate it! I don't know a ton.
MIQI Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) Received UMich Stamps interview invite via email. If there's anyone who had interviewed with them before and is willing to share their experience—that'd be appreciated! Edited February 3, 2020 by MIQI atb 1

They emailed me two days before with a list of questions to pick 2-3 from to answer about one piece from my portfolio, in a less than 10 min timeframe. I applied to a bunch of the UCs, but they're the only ones I've heard anything from so far. Has anyone heard from UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSB, UCSD, or UC Irvine yet?

I applied to UCSD and have not heard a peep from them and considering the deadlines were in the beginning of January. I know someone that got their MFA from there and they said that UCSD sends out interview requests between late Jan and early Feb, so hopefully very soon. Best of luck!

Expand They had mostly positives things to say about the program, professors, the city itself, people living there having progressive views and/or aware about local/global issues and mentioned no regrets in selecting UCSD for an MFA. It was very assuring to know what kind of atmosphere I would be surrounded by if I were an MFA candidate living there.

songbirdy327 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 For other people who have applied for Arkansas - did any of you have a follow up conversation? I just received an email asking to have another follow-up talk. What does this mean??? I'm terrified that they just want to explain to me why I'm not being accepted...

Maybe it means they narrowed down the original finalist pool to an even smaller one and you're in it? Can't imagine they'd go to all that effort to reject you.

It's unexpected, they said nothing implied last time that there would be another round, and they were only interviewing six people I believe. But even if interviews give me intense anxiety, it's worth it to get one step closer. Thank you!

ohboyy Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 I think Tyler Painting decisions just went out, because I got a waitlist email
songbirdy327 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 No need to prepare—the call is a simple follow-up to share next steps and answer any additional questions that you may have! ^This is the response I received when asking if I was having a second-round interview. I'm thinking maybe I've been waitlisted? I'm not sure what to think from this reply...my heart is SO anxious right now, it's killing me...
