I will email the financial aid office lady, and see what's up, because they are stalling, and I have to make decisions.

I emailed Pratt this morning asking when the decision will be made since I have looming deadlines from other programs. And I literally received the decision letter just 2 HOURS after I sent the email. This feels like a JOKE. But thanks Pratt

The status of the Colombia MFA (sculpture) application portal has been updated. 

Does anyone know what the chances are for waitlisted applicants to be accepted at Columbia mfa?🤒

I was also admitted this morning but I didn't email them (well, I did last week, asking to visit). But mine doesn't appear to have any tuition reduction. Does yours or others that were admitted?

Same. No $$$ info unfortunately

No word today from Hunter post-interview, so I'm resigned to a forthcoming portal rejection 😕. But congratulations to those who got in!!

On a bright note, SUNY Purchase bumped up their financial offer from an initial $5,000 a year to $7,500 this morning (in-state tuition is just over $13k per year).

Don’t lose hope, programs are all over the place and their process is definitely not lineal or structured to follow a certain order

I’m pretty sure you have to fill out the same paper work next year for the 25-26 school year. So it’d only be for the one year. 90% sure.

[Wherearethelettersomfg]

Anyone else know anything about UCLA decisions (post-interview)?
