sightless Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) Could you share your experience of interview at Mass Art? Hope you get delightful letters from the schools. Hey Everyone, I've been a lurker for a while, but thought I'd say hello. I'm a video/performance artist. This process is so emotionally draining! CCA-interviered SFAI- interviewed MassArts- interviewed UCI-guessing a rejection UCSD- holding my breath CalArts- rejection CMU- rejection Although, I'm a bit older - 32 - I've been thinking that if I don't get a decent aid package I may wait and apply again next year. I'd love to hear anyone's thoughts about that. Congratulations on your interview Zaquon! It sounds like waiting it out worked for you.

Speaking of which, anyone know what your chances are of getting at the SMFA if you itnerview? The whole cost thing is a tough issue. I'm 32 as well. On one hand more than $50k of dept scares the hell out of me, on the other hand my girlfriend will kill me if I get accepted and don't go after all I've put her through. orangetrousers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toomuchinternet Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Why are you guessing a rejection from UCI? I spoke with admissions and they said the first letters in the process would be going out this & next week. Hey Everyone, I've been a lurker for a while, but thought I'd say hello.

L333makes Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Vermillion, when and how did you hear from Rutgers?

vermillion Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Thanks! Congrats and good luck to you as well. Davis is supposed to send out funding info beginning of next month and I'm not sure about Rutgers, I have to write them a letter detailing my need for funding. So I'm guessing early next month for them as well. yay!!! good for you!!! do you know about funding yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vermillion Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 No prob, I heard from them yesterday via email. Vermillion, when and how did you hear from Rutgers? (sorry if i missed this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaknow Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 did it seem like a standard letter to all those accepted or more personal.. I'm trying to figure out if I can cross off list or hold out hope Thanks No prob, I heard from them yesterday via email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentyeleven Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 did it seem like a standard letter to all those accepted or more personal.. I'm trying to figure out if I can cross off list or hold out hope Thanks I'm wondering about their process too...some people were accepted over the phone a few days ago, now an e.mail acceptance. Strange, the lack of continuity. Vermillion, does your online status now say accepted? Just curious since mine still says 'no decision.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vermillion Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hmm, well the letter was from Stephen Westfall and had a lot of general info like dates, contact info, what happens next, etc. The only personal information it had was my name, address and date. Not sure if that's helpful or not. did it seem like a standard letter to all those accepted or more personal.. I'm trying to figure out if I can cross off list or hold out hope Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vermillion Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I just checked it and it says "no decision" as well but I'm not sure if it will be official yet. It was stated in the letter that "Official verification will be forthcoming from the Graduate Admissions Office, provided that you have met the conditions for admission established by that office." I agree that its weird that some people received phone calls, maybe I wasn't one of the top choices but good enough to get in?

flo Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Just received acceptance e-mail from SUNY-BUFFALO for their new genres program which is great but, had an interview last friday and still waiting on SFAI's reply. I think my work will fit better there (+will be happier without ever seeing snow again!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given up trying to understand schools methodology for notifying applicants. Anyway, congratulations and good luck with funding/making a decision!
