Are people looking up the emails of the faculty members who interviewed them and writing a thank you email to that group? I usually just email whoever was the contact that set up the interview and ask them to extend things to everyone that attended.
sixseveneight Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I was selected as a finalist for Yale sculpture!! I can't believe it. Especially after such a quick rejection from northwestern, I felt certain it would be the same for yale. For the record I got the email yesterday early afternoon but I couldn't get into my gradcafe account on my phone. But yeah my head is still spinning. My anxiety has been through the roof and hasn't really subsided so I can barely process this and I'm elated but also like...so out of it lol. This process really is brutal. Goes without saying I am terrified of the interview but have some time to prepare. Tomorrow I am interviewing in person at Upenn. No word from UCLA..seems like last year they ran late and then also didn't even formally reject a lot of people so I have no expectations from them. Hope everyone is hanging in there<3 Snailz, ohoh, RadicalDreamers and 1 other 4

ThinkAsSiren Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Just got an acceptance email from Tyler (painting) today. And it seems that they are inviting ppl to visit the department starting in late Feb. Miso 1
Sweetie123 Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Hi all, did anyone else apply to the university of Maryland? I know many of you are underway in the interview process already. Last year I was interviewed (sculpture) by Tulane, Kent state, and the university of Delaware. I’d be happy to give anyone info/feedback about my interviews at those schools last year. I was accepted to Kent and Delaware but ultimately chose to decline both and reapply to other schools this year. congrats to everyone and good luck! x CactusWren22 1

Goody2choos Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Hey everyone! I just received an email from Tyler regarding visiting and touring the school and it congratulated me on my acceptance but, I never received an acceptance email? I responded asking if an email was supposed to be sent out later today but was wondering if anyone else had this happen? CactusWren22 and Beenthereonce 1 1

I got something similar but more personal for photo. I think the funding is held up because of the FAFSA issues but they still want to start accepting people, so they're offering visits first and foremost. That's what Davis did too.

Delaware gave me a wonderful offer and I came close to accepting, but at the time they were in the middle of sorting some things out with their program (whether it would be 2 or 3 years and a few other things) and I decided to wait until things were sorted and the dust settled. And with Kent, I would have been an instructor of record from day 1 and I am looking for a program where I can TA for the first semester or so while I get acclimated. Both are great programs with good offers just not what I was looking for. CactusWren22 1

Guest Posted February 8 Posted February 8 Has anyone heard anything from VCU at all? I feel like they've been radio silent this whole winter. At least I hope they have been.
