Worfalisk1 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hello all, Nice to know I'm not alone. Feel like I am going crazy with anticipation. Haven't heard anything yet..... Schools I've applied to: Carnegie Mellon Cornell - drawing/painting Penn State - drawing/ painting University of Michigan Montana State (deadline Feb 15) - drawing/painting University of Montana (deadline Feb 15) - drawing/painting I really want University of Michigan or Carnegie Mellon! Michigan interviews 20 people on the short list - they fly you out to Ann Arbor for an interview. I am desperately waiting for that call. You would think it would be in Feb? Maybe the snow is causing a delay? ( Like I said, desperate). Carnegie Mellon's grad admissions coordinator said they start sending acceptances out in Feb if you make the first round. If you are somewhere in the middle of the pack, you might wait until April. I just want this uncertainty to end! Check out my site yvonnekunz.com: Most of my application portfolio is the 2010 work. Cheers! Carnegie Mellon FTW!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibilu Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Same with me. Email from Christian. How did you guys hear from Tyler? Was it phone call or via email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robobabycrusher Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Same with me. Email from Christian. Got a call last week accepting me into SCAD's MFA in Graphic Design program plus $10k/year scholarship. I noticed not many people were applying to SCAD in any discipline. Is that school frowned upon? Is it the cost? Also applied: SCAD VCU MICA OU (univ. of oklahoma) FHSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daiy Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I emailed U of Michigan and they told me that they have sent out all the interview invitations already, so I assume I was rejected, which is fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also applied: SCAD VCU MICA OU (univ. of oklahoma) FHSU SCAD isn't ranked very high, its more well known as being focused on its undergrads but I don't know a lot. I know its not exactly held in high regard relative to most schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summer5121 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Congrats! Me too!! Were you able to schedule online? I was confused by the username and password Just got an e.mail about an interview at MassArt for their 3-D MFA program! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious12345 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 No Yale for me either. What a waste of $100. Should've known not to apply there for the 2nd time. It seems to me they mostly like geometric abstract (like the works of painting chair/director Peter Halley and professor Clint Jukkala) and minimalist, conceptual work. When I went to the open house, that was the majority of the work I saw. I'm not saying their work is bad, I think it's really good, but they seem to pick painting students whose works look like theirs. I didn't see much diversity. I will not be applying to Yale in the future (if I have to apply again next year). Ya, I think I would have gotten more out of torching 100$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms_B Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I also received my rejection from Yale last night. Very disappointing since I interviewed with them in 2009, but wasn't admitted. Anyway, these are the schools I have applied to: Yale (rejected) RISD Columbia SAIC - painting and printmedia Tyler MICA - Hoffberger and Mount Royal SVA CalArts UCLA Hoping for some good news in the coming weeks.
