peekaboo Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 mySAIC says the same thing (my portfolio wasn't submitted). I asked about this a while ago and they said not to worry, they just didn't update it yet. Oh is that right? thats good to know, thanks! so you're invited to the interview! congrats! probably i'm receiving rejection letter since i haven't heard back yet. (painting/drawing interview invitation letter was post marked on the 10th I heard) but i still wonder why i received neither letter, it would be here the next day they sent out cuz i live in town.

cchema Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Is it their post-bac program? I've heard of SAIC accepting grad applicants into their post-bac programs. I'm not sure about the prior degree BFA program unless they're just accepting you as an undergrad-but that seems a little odd to me. I am pretty unclear about it. Online it says that there is no time limit for finishing the program and that they waive your normal undergrad requirements (liberal arts core etc.) It seems like a post-bac program.... Thanks for the insights!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaquon Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I just realized (becuase I was not aware of the mySAIC thing) that I input my email address wrong on SAIC's online application. I'm feeling pretty lame right about now. I corrected it and emailed them. Did you guys need an ID number to register for this thing? Also, anyone hear/not hear from photo?

It was a while ago so I don't remember exactly, but I think it was once you register for mySAIC, you receive an email with your ID and temporary password.

peekaboo Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I didn't get a letter yet either. I live in an apartment so I was thinking maybe it's taking a while for the letters to be slipped in to each mailbox. but i guess thats not the case...oh well, we'd have to wait and see i guess!

annaelectric Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 No letter for me either... judging by last year's experience of "no news is NOT good news" I'm gonna give up the ghost on this one. Chicago's too damn cold anyway.

lalorcharlotte Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hello everyone, I've been lurking for a bit. I applied to Iowa, Penn state, Tyler, south Florida, and wvu. In printmaking. I'm thinking I should have applied more places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L333makes Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi! You're the first other person I've seen who applied to WVU--what made you choose that program? I just applied, at the last minute, but actually don't know much about it. Also a printmaker. this is my site: http://lisadietrich.carbonmade.com/ would love to see your work as well!

lalorcharlotte Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 My process for picking out schools started with me looking close to home (dc). I liked wvu because the print prof had a lot of straight-up printmaking. I visited and it had a good feel to it. Initially I wasn't planning on applying to any big name schools, but one of my undergrad professors told me I should apply to the top-tier schools. I will link up some of my work, but right now I'm posting from and iPod, and it seems too complicated. In other news, I'm not really expecting an acceptance to Tyler, but I've been obsessively checking my application status, and it says "complete ready for review"...does that mean they haven't looked at it? Someone said they already made their decisions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethanyr Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Printmakers applying to Tyler: Any word at all? Are they a super competitive program? They were one of my less competitive schools I applied to so I am getting nervous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colbz Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 O well, life goes on....worse things have happened to us all than getting rejected from a school. No worries, we've got more to hear from. I'm also going to assume rejection at this point for myself as well. No letter for me either... judging by last year's experience of "no news is NOT good news" I'm gonna give up the ghost on this one. Chicago's too damn cold anyway.

yeahhh Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 anyone heard anything from ucla for painting??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colbz Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I thought Tyler was a top tier school...at least for painting, I'm not sure about printmaking. PS bethanyr...speaking of printmaking, I showed the bug artist to the kids today...it was really funny, they all started freaking out thinking that bugs were harmed in the making of the art. I had to explain that all the bugs were OK, because water based non-toxic paint was used! haha. Just thought I'd share! Printmakers applying to Tyler: Any word at all?
