Still have heard nothing from any of my schools :-( I'm trying to stay positive, but feel less hopeful every day.

got an interview for next tuesday with Penn design at 11:30 even though just before I got that emailI got an email respinse from an administrator saying that they DID NOT cunduct interviews!!! YAY what a relief to at least HEAR form someone.

Congratulations! That's awesome! I almost applied there as well, but I just had to narrow my list down.

Yay! Penn interview on Monday 2/14. Got an email today. Penn is one of my top choices so I'm excited and really nervous. I generally hate talking on the phone because of no eye-contact or tangible presence...

Does any one have any clue what they will ask? I guess from other posts about interviews it is mostly questions about our ideas, process, and influences....

Advice on interviews, anyone?

My advice is do your research, know why you want to go to that school, and be yourself.

Good luck! and Congratulations!

Hi Cobalt: Congrats on hearing from SFAI and getting an interview!

I applied there as well and am hopeful I'll hear something soon. I wonder if they connect with people in waves or all at once.... my stomach is a mess waiting to hear from all my schools.

I did get an interview with CCA so that's positive.

Anyone hear from Berkeley at all? I think I saw that someone did on another thread but I'm trying to remain hopeful that they are still reaching out...

Hey, thanks! And Congrats right back! Keeping my fingers crossed!

I haven't heard from USC and I'm assuming I didn't get in due to the other post saying 20 people are being interviewed for 7 slots.

where did you read that about USC?

I agree with everyone who didn't hear about interviews today, I'm sad about SMFA that was one of my top choices. However, I am grateful for this forum so that I don't have to wait til March/April for my rejection. I know now and it will give me more time to move on and look forward to hearing from other schools.

i've only heard from Slade: last week (Feb 3) by email - i'm on the shortlist, and only those who can attend an interview in person will do so; no phone or skype interviews (i'm in Canada so i won't be going); otherwise they will review portfolios of those who can't attend again during interview week.

Dang. There goes another one for me. But thanks so much for posting that and for joining our convo here--and congrats on being shortlisted! Let us know if u hear anything more. Where else did you apply?

Okay, that was a major typo! I meant UCB! So sorry to mislead!

Ha! I wasn't ready for that blow just yet. The applications were due 2/1 or something so I thought I had a little more time! Thanks for clarifying.

Laura I really love your portraits, you've been busy this year. Wish I could pull up my '11 stuff but I'm having a hard time finding a new photographer. I've also applied to SAIC, and to be honest, seeing your work makes me a bit nervous for myself! Best of luck to you, I'd love to know when you here from them. I'm out in Seattle.

So if I haven't received a call from MICA this week, should I assume that I'm not accepted? I assume they call everyone they plan to accept, correct?

Also, does anyone know how many spots are open at VCU?

Im talking MFA GD.

I don't know if I'd assume you didn't get accepted. They were supposed to be getting back to applicants "during the coming weeks" from what they said in an e-mail on 2/3, so I wouldn't worry about that just yet.
