Nonameguy101 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 On 2/3/2020 at 10:09 PM, Strawberrycat said: I did a short phone interview with them on Wednesday. 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? Have you heard back from Davis since the interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

songbirdy327 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I have been waitlisted at UArk - and I saw someone else was too, so I wanted to give a quick update as I just had a chat with one of the professors there. I'm sure all schools are different, but in this case they said there is no ranking of the waitlist, and that the decision of who will be offered a spot is highly dependent on 'fit' with the other incoming student - in other words, they only accept two people into this department, so they want the pair to be compatible. It's not something that I thought of as being important, so I hope this information is useful and comforting to anyone else out there waitlisted - I know it's impossible not to take it personally, but there are so many factors beyond the quality of your work/your personality/whatever else you are picking apart. nbh, hht, tdrae and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbia -- last year the interviews happened around the second week of march so I don't think interview decisions have been made Hunter -- I also haven't heard anything Bard -- at the Q&A they said interviews usually take place the first weekend in March so we still have time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rtwoneday Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 22 hours ago, MIQI said: What do you think are the pros and cons of Minnesota's MFA program? Are your friends happy there? Why/why not? Pros: Incredible funding (tuition wavier + stipend), great state for funding and grants (second only to New York), large and beautiful city, large cohort inside of a large school, Printmaking facilities amazing, Jenny Schmid is amazing (Corinne Teed joined the semester left) Cons: Cold, department can be only focused on capital A Art (loves installation/performance/interdisciplinary does not like abstract work/conventional painting/pottery/craft), can be hard to connect with professors and get their time. One con I'd like to elaborate on is that Minneapolis, and UMN even more so, can be a really difficult places to make friends. It's hard to stress how important/difficult this is but it's very similar to Seattle Freeze. I had one friend who regretted his whole 3 years and his work subsequently became about his home state entirely becuase he couldn't find his community and social circle. It can also be hard to connect with some professors because of this as well. Overall definitely worth it, but when visiting try and go out/ go to bars/ do what you'd normally do in your city and try and feel out the atmosphere.
