It’s my top choice so that makes it extra verve racking. The program is so small I really wonder how many people they interviewed. How do you feel yours went?

I think i tripped up on one of the questions but trying not to fixate on it. Hoping the interview isn't weighed tooo heavily. I feel like they probably don't interview too many people considering they only accept 2! Also my top choice ? Dgzrlemc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My practice really only gained steam in the past few years. I'm of the opinion that you have to communicate what strengths you bring and be honest and effective or portraying what you hope to gain in 2-3 years of study. For what it's worth, I was accepted into my top choice program and I'm waiting to hear back from one other before making a decision. I say this all to say if you haven't followed the traditional pathway, do not fear. If anything studies in creative fields should be open to individuals outside the traditional pathways less we limit the lived experiences and creative practices that different pathways bring. Be authentic and find a program that will push and nurture you. Ultimately it's about your own growth so finding a program and location that speak to you is the most important factor I believe. Good luck - I'm excited for the next chapter and challenge ahead. I cried at this message. Thank you so much for the encouragement ? And CONGRATULATIONS for getting into your top program; I'm so happy for you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they told me was “within a couple weeks”. I applied there in ceramics too, but haven't heard a peep. I thought it had been a while and I should have heard something by now but didn't know if they were behind. I guess that doesn't look promising for my application :/....but congrats on your interview. How did it go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their ceramics program looks great...I applied to Alfred, Uark, OSU, Tulane, UFL, Kent State, and SIUE. All for ceramics, they all have full rides. I got an email this morning from SUNY New Paltz where I started an application and didn't finish, offering a chance to submit before the 10th. Surprising! I'm probably going to go ahead and submit there too. Where all did you apply and is it all ceramics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AidaLizard Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I just heard for an interview with Alfred (Sculpture) but they seemed to have a lot of time slots for interviews so I believe they are doing a standard thing and scheduling them all already. Just a wild guess though. I am still waiting to hear from VCU but I didn't know they had extended their deadline until Feb 1st. I applied before their Jan 15th deadline. I would really appreciate it if anyone lets me know when they hear from them!!

lizavetar96 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Hey! I just had an interview with SVA for Photography and it went extremely well, I am pretty sure from what the professor told me on Zoom, I am going to get an offer this week. My decision on going or not going is highly dependent on ability to get funds. I applied to Fafsa several months ago, how do I find out if Fafsa will allot me any funds to go to a specific school or if I am qualified for a work study? Also, is it too late to apply for grants for 2021 fall academic year? Or is it even realistic to think that i can raise around 13k in grants? (I am hoping that I can get an assistantship in SVA and that will shave off half of tuition). I know that I will NEVER take out loans or go into debt in order to afford grad school.

piers2 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Does anyone happen to know anything about Yale's financial aid? I absolutely cannot afford to go to grad school, but from what I hear it's quite generous. Assuming that I make through the interview without bombing, of course. FAFSA and CCS have been an absolute bitch so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard they’re pretty generous but a lot of students who couldn’t afford grad school in the past years have started a go fund me page where individuals have generously donated! You could definitely do that! Keep us posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
