MIQI Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I'm once again asking for intel on Stanford... If they do conduct on-campus interviews at the end of February, I reckon the invites should be sent around this time at the latest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verynervous Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Does anyone know what's the interview like for RCA's IDE or GID program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eleven11 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Yeah, I'm wondering about Stanford too, because according to last year topics the accepted candidates received an email in the middle of March and did not get interviewed (?)

Is that so? I noticed someone had already interviewed with Stanford by March 8 last year.

outer_space Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Here's some intel on schools I applied to this year: Rutgers sculpture: rejected UCLA interdisciplinary studio: no word yet Alfred sculpture/glass: Interviewed via Skype -- supposed to hear final decision by end of Feb. VCU sculpture: no word yet UC Riverside: rejected (okay this is how it went down: the time frame within they said I'd be contacted for an interview came and went. So I emailed the grad coordinator for clarification, and she responded by telling me informally that I had been rejected. I guess their method is to tell applicants to reserve the 14th of Feb for interview day, and just let them assume they're rejected if they don't hear back! I checked my email every 10 minutes for a full 7 days prior to checking in, wish they had just sent me a form letter SMH. What DO those fees pay for exactly?!) I've applied to grad school before, been looking for the right fit for SO LONG but never received the right mix of A) funding offer that made it financially feasible for me to attend + a school I felt really excited about. In 2017 I rejected an admission offer from Tyler sculpture—feel free to ask me about the interview process—basically it involved delivering an in-person lecture about my work to the MFA sculpture faculty and students, and they ask questions round-table style like a crit (that's right--a crit with strangers to prove your aptitude, about as awkward and stressful as you can imagine). This year I finally shifted my process of only applying to schools with better funding ops, and doing way better research rather than relying on hype and reputation, I'm hoping for a great fit. Some, like Alfred, even offer a full tuition waiver and stipend, plus insane top of the line facilities and teaching opportunities. Good luck out there everyone!!

Didn't see other mentions of Stanford in last year's freak out Sorry I messed it up. The two people accepted posted in 2018. They didn't say anything about being interviewed. Only that the decision came in March or the end of February. I think they already invited people for campus interviews if they conduct them at the end of February MIQI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they give you any idea of when they would make a decision? I forgot to ask. I also forgot to ask... If its anything like IU it will probably take a little more than a week for them to get back to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, has anyone else received an interview invite to Columbia school so the arts- painting? It seems this the week they would be released, if not already.

I flew out for the open house back in November and the director had mentioned that finalists would be notified late January/Early Feb. so that they have time to make travel arrangements for the interview.
