I look at the faculty members and there is only one painter as faculty. And I am worrying now. Do you have any insight on the painting program? It's not a bad program if you are into many disciplines with your art practice. I knew of one painter there right now at VCU but her work falls into more traditional fare.

Had my second interview at Parsons- Yale and Parsons were the only schools I applied to. I had high hopes for Yale and was thinking of applying again with a stronger portfolio. I also have a bachelors in Biology and just hope that doesn’t degrade my love for art and wanting to get an MFA. Parsons isn’t worth the debt for me, tbh.

xzg Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) waitlisted at Yale (painting and printmaking), this was my second time interviewing, first time was rejected after the interview. I think reapply would get the applicant a better chance, but it doesn't guarantee much, also thinking about the time, money and energy invested. Unfortunately, It also seems difficult to get off waitlist this year, as only 12 students (as oppose to 21) will be accepted. Best of luck to everyone waiting.

How many are usually waitlisted for the program? Hopefully you can join the cohort. ? Was this your second time applying to Yale (painting/printmaking)? If you don't mind sharing...would like to know what you felt was different in your second interview compared to your first? Crossing fingers.

Scrambledmegs Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 So I was rejected from Yale after interviewing which is really hard obviously. I’m trying to see the bright side though. I have acceptances to UW and goldsmiths and I also was accepted to Tulane today. I feel like I’m leaning towards Tulane because they are funded with a stipend. They are definitely encouraging me to decide soon too. If anyone has any advice please let me know.

Do you know how big Tulane’s cohort this year is? I applied for Photo but they never got back to me so I assume it is no interview and a rejection obviously. i also thought that UW also gives full ride and some sort of a stipend, no?

Is she satisfied with the program? I think so but sadly enough, our gallery had a falling out with her studio to be honest. She is very talented however. It is very experimental but I think her work is on the spectrum is being much more traditional than the other students she is with.

Your rejection is extremely shocking to me because your work is exceptional and extremely detailed. Also, I recall you saying that you have a BS- did they ask you anything about that? And how did the interview go? Anyways, their loss. Keep hustling. ? Edited March 6, 2021 by NoraEllie Scrambledmegs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yale is pretty conceptually driven and less about the perfection of craftsmanship... also their painting/printmaking dept wants to emphasize intersectionality so they like to keep a racially/culturally/sexual diverse group. Perfect drawings rendered in the academic style is going to be a huge no for that program. NoraEllie, art_star and Hphphphp 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m middle eastern/Asian and I’ve always been the only one in all my schools attended, Lol. I’ve also seen the works of students in the past and it’s so exceptionally different and unique. I completely get your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely get your point. Yes... one of the reasons for Yale being such as a mover and shaker is that people from all walks of life enter into the program. That is a huge bonus for me when I apply next fall. Living here in Utah is completely torture culturally for me. It's just a bunch of mostly white pro-Trump folks here. Very inspirational for my cynical political art but I cannot sustain that forever. I plan to keep my house here but I will have to get a second studio/apartment in either NYC/LA. As a conceptual artist, I have no future in Utah unless some miracle is wrought. Yale and UCLA offer relatively radical programs that fits in with my neo-Marxist, pretty left-wing Muslim/Sufist belief systems.
