Faxma Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Hi everyone, posting updates for my Yale interview earlier today. Hopefully it can give future applicants some kind of comfort by knowing what to expect❤️ University: Yale Program: Graphic Design - Preliminary Program Applicant: International student, science background Application deadline: Jan. 9 (4 days extension due to Covid) Interview invite: Feb. 2 (email notification to check the application status through the portal) Interview dates: Feb. 18, 22, or 23 (we got to choose the suitable date and time through the portal) you will do two interviews, a formal one with faculty, and a non-formal one with students. one day before the interview, you will receive an email with the faculty and student names that will be interviewing you, along with zoom links. I was interviewed by 6 faculty members, very nice and conversational interview. Basic questions, they will not challenge you or test your knowledge. Just asking general questions about your plans, and why you chose the school and other questions related to the pieces you’ll be presenting. The interview is 35 minutes (15-20 min. to showcase 4-6 of your pieces and talk about them, the remaining is for questions). I had my non-formal student interview 10 minutes after the faculty interview. The purpose of this is for you to ask questions about the university, program, community etc. my interview was with 2 students for 20 minutes. Both were very friendly and helpful. Expecting to hear final decisions by next week, hoping for the best ?? chipmunkismyfriend, thermoflask, hibiscusleaves and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was waitlisted today after my interview on Sunday. Didn't think it went the best, it was very formal. Ah well. Also wondering if anyone has heard from Indiana, Arizona State, or UNC Greensboro. This wait is killing me... At least GSU made a decision quickly...ahhhh Hi! Did you get respond from UNC Greensboro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you comfortable sharing with us what scholarships or financial aid awards you received with RISD? I am curious if their financial aid practices have changed from previous years. Thank you. Sure. I was offered about half of the tuition cost for both years + 5k TA position (I think someone else on this forum mentioned this as well). Does anyone have advice on how to negotiate for more? Anyone have experience in successful negotiations in the past? Thanks!! AncientQuail and seelamfa22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just received an email. Congrats! I had an interview with Notre Dame for photography on 2/16 and it went okay-ish. If the same questions are used department wide, they will ask: introduce yourself and tell us about who you are, can you explain the work you make and why you make it, are you comfortable in a research based environment, how do you think your work will change or will it stay the same, who are your inspirations. They notified me that every medium only accepts 1 student and the program is extremely research-based. So good luck!! hellotothefuture 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied in graphic design. They say they will have interview and the final decision will be made at the beginning of March. Idk anyone who received an interview email...bc there are less people who applied for UF, I think most of them go to FSU. I just think it is not a good sign for me...which is i still didn't received their interview at the end of Feb...anyways, crossed fingures for us and wish both of us a good luck!!

DawkT Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 This morning I got a rejection letter through email from my #1 school, UNL, super bummed. Then later, I got a phone call at work today that came up as "Scam Likely," I picked it up because I've been so anxious to hear from a grad school and it was a call from Boise State telling me I was accepted! What a happy little coincidence. Answer all of your spam calls! On another note to those who are accepted, school are notorious for pressuring potential grad students into accepting soon, typically within a week. You are not obligated to make a decision until April 15th. I would do all communicating through email so that you have a paper trail.

But also, some schools are not a part of the April 15th resolution so that might not be accurate for everyone.

I am late on this thread, I am sure everyone is on the same boat with this waiting game... :S I only applied to northwestern and Yale, did the interview and now just waiting. Has anyone else who also interviewed at northwestern heard anything back yet, I feel like we should hear any day now. Has there been any follow up?
