Starrr Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) Question. Pratt gave me departmental aid, but I am seeking more bc I really want to go and it's not my best aid package. I had a meeting today and am learning (also from their website) that federal aid from the FAFSA is separate?? Does anyone know anything abt this? I am scheduling a mtng immediately. Oh, and Parsons Comms Design decisions are finally coming out! Edited March 15, 2023 by Starrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risaurus Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) Does anyone know when CalArts' financial packages will be out? They mentioned Mid-March and it's already the 15th! Running out of time to make a final decision or appeal for scholarships at other colleges, especially when CalArts could be my best leverage. Note: Seems like everyone received the package at the start of April last year. I hope it doesn't come in that late this time! Edited March 15, 2023 by risaurus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied for Bard MFA Film/Video, but I know that all interviews for all disciplines were scheduled March 4-5, and decision letters and financial aid offers have been sent out since March 10. I got my acceptance notice prior to that (March 6) via phone call from the Film/Video co-chair, but I'm not sure if other disciplines have diff timelines. I would contact their grad admissions if you haven't yet. Sculpturegirl78 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIT: Rejected UCLA: No news yet (or interview) CalArts: Half tuition Parsons: Full tuition Feeling very inclined to go with Parsons unless UCLA comes out of nowhere. Looks like there are also teaching options at Parsons to help cover some cost of living in NYC. Congrats to you all and good luck! Congrats, may I ask which program at MIT did you apply for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_solvely_ Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Hi everyone, Does anyone know the reputation of University Arts London Camberwell MA:Painting? Is their quality of teaching good?

cornchip Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Does anyone have insight into Tyler they want to share? This is looking like my best option right now. I so appreciate that they are a funded program and can provide stipends as well. I'm just not sure it's the right fit for me. I was accepted into the Fiber program, but I'm curious to hear any opinions on Tyler and Philly in general! Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogii Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 how do people generally negotiate funding? from what i am aware, there can be an offer from the school of a partial tuition remission or a small scholarship (ex. $10k)Â and then separate to that, there is the financial aid package offered based on your fafsa that comes later right. so usually do students negotiate the scholarship/tuition remission with their department or are they negotiating the financial aid package offered based on the fafsa?

Tyler is dope for fiber. I think Erin M. Riley went there and wow yes! Amy Lincoln went there too. So a very good school.

I usually would argue based on the FAFSA but if you can, the department could help out. For example, with SAIC, I was unable to obtain more funding so I gave up. I even submitted an online appeal and it does not work for me. So will see how the other two schools fall out. hogii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sorry if these are super obvious questions im just quite confused  ) My strategy is simple. For talking about scholarships (merit usually) I would try to speak with the department. For grants and loans, financial aid office for that round. hogii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
