dinkywinks Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Currently processing one of my MFA interviews and am so confused and a little bit disappointed. If anyone can add insight, I'd greatly appreciate it. I had 3 panelists who asked me about the first piece of my artwork, which I dutifully replied. I had previously shared a private portfolio link with a list of my art. Unfortunately, when I started to explain, the panelists seemed quite confused and unsure of which artwork I was talking about, and one of them asked for the link to be resent. Then, they also proceeded to ask about a different mural I did (on the homepage of my website/not included in my portfolio), which is completely unrelated to my portfolio. I should have stopped them right then and there to ask if they had the correct link, but felt like a deer in the headlights and just kind of went with it. Anyone have this kind of mishap? Or is it totally normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly if you feel like you did an adequate job of explaining your works, no matter if they were included in your portfolio or not, you should be fine. I would still suggest, if you feel anxious, for you to drop them a thank you mail in a day or so and thank them genuinely for their time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I've sent them a thank you letter right after the interview and will email the grad app coordinator, just to clarify if this affects the process at all. It just all happens in a blur!

I've read somewhere in the previous forums that its good ol' professionalism, as you would with any other job interview (although mind you, I'm guilty...). I didn't know either until I read the post!

I am a bit confused by the varying emails directing me to either the application page portal or the official TUportal that I do not believe I was prompted to make an account for.. I think most or all departments at Tyler have finished interviews, but not sure. I only know Painting and Ceramics have interviewed for certain. I was also confused about how to get into the TUportal, and I chatted with the Temple IT folks, who helps me activate my account. It was quick and easy. ?

Gorg Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Does anyone know anything about the USC Roski MFA Art program? I know it had a drop in rank/prestige a few years ago. I applied as one of my backups and I don't know anything about their process. The slideroom/portfolio part of the app was due mid january but the other part was due feb 1st (or maybe the other way around...I can't remember right now) so I am not expecting a response right now but I was just wondering if anyone knows if they even interview?

Also, that's so interesting, when I asked about interviews they said it wasn't customary unless you were a potential fellowship/stipend candidate. Maybe painting is different than sculpture, not sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they email or did you have to check the portal? I received a direct email from both programs about 2 weeks ago now. This is my first application round so I'm not super familiar with timelines or how all this stuff works to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
