In case you are having the same issue, I emailed the office of financial aid and they are saying that they didn't get my ssn, so they haven't processed my fafsa yet. I'm going to call tomorrow though because that doesn't seem right. I haven't had issues with other schools. Hopefully we can sort this out!

futuredesigner Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Good luck to anyone with RISD interviews this weekend! Let us know how it goes :’) Based on responses from GradCafe in the last 10 years, the interviews were more casual. I still feel like I need to prep for scenario questions which…I’m not a fan of. ?

Miso Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) I was rejected from UGA today. I feel like they didn't see the best version of my art because they decided to not use Slideroom this year. (applicants could only submit a pdf no larger than like 10MB) Kind of weird to have an interview with Northwestern but get rejected from UGA, I must admit...I'm surprised. Guess I underestimated how competitive UGA is ?♂️ I wasn't as sad or disappointed as I thought I would be though, I am so relieved to just hear back from a school lol....one less interview I have to do ? And now hearing people received interview invites from UCSD makes me think I am not a finalist. Goodluck to everyone that received that email today, San Diego is absolutely beautiful and the program gives a nice stipend :) Edited February 9, 2023 by Gaara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faculty members and core critics definitely commute but they don't go in everyday. But I think, majority, if not all students, live in New Haven during their time in the program. Hmmm, as an owner of apartments in NYC, three of my renters are Yale graduate students.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animapaint Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Hi Boolakanaka, were your tenants painting or art MFA students? If so did they have studios in NYC? and then did they carry all their work in for reviews and crits? it seems like for a philosophy grad student at yale, no prob for the commute - and maybe for a photographer - but for a painter or a sculptor it would be problematic. Not to mention it's at best a 90 minute commute if you're driving, and over 2 hours on the train each way. It seems a huge waste of time for a maker, and you miss out on the community aspect of being in an MFA program.... which is important to some of us - others may already have that community in place. So for some it living in the city might be feasible, but for others it wouldn't work at all.

A friend of mine went to yale undergrad… he never met any MFA students who commuted from NYC, but knows of art history phd students who do. I think it’s because MFA students have classes 4-5 days per week whereas phd students only need to be on campus twice a week. Hope this helps!

blueangel Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Just finished my MICA interview! Questions were extremely fast paced, I stumbled over a few of them because I was nervous. Luckily I prepped for any question possible but tbh could have prepped more. It seemed to have go well and I'm so glad I did my research!! I also completely forgot to change my zoom name before but the interviewer was late anyways so thankfully she didn't see that mistake. dawndothat and futuredesigner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on finishing your interview! I have a SAIC interview tomorrow. I know an interview will be different from school to school, but can I ask you some questions? How many interviewers were there? And, Do you mean the research on the program or professor or what? I hope you get admission to MICA. Good Luck!

There was only 1 interviewer (there's 2 faculty members for the painting program at MICA), and I def recommend research on both the program and professor. It's nice to show that you researched the person interviewing you. They also might ask which professors you want to work with (in my case theres only 2 so they didn't ask that). She also asked why this school and what stands about about their program. Edited February 10, 2023 by blueangel dawndothat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_b Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 So first time poster but lurked for a while.

Miso Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I sound like a broken record but surely we will hear back from UCLA and Stanford next week ?. Especially Stanford, when your application deadline is Dec. 1st it really shouldn't take this long to send out interview invites. Slowly losing my mind:/ SocialKonstruct 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
