designr Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I still haven't heard anything from RISD, VCU, RIT or Cranbrook.... I saw others received their rejection/acceptance notices... what does it mean... what does it all mean?
wooboogooboo Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Accepted at MICA (Illustration) and Pratt (CommD MFA). Waitlisted at RISD (argh!)Anyone have thoughts they'd like to share on MICA Illustration or Pratt CommD? They're both new programs... makes me a little hesitant to say yes, especially having seen hardly any student work from the actual programs...
aesthetic Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 i was also waitlisted for MICA today. better than a rejection, but disappointed.
presson Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I was thrilled to get an acceptance letter from MICA this afternoon!
mfafingerscrossed Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 How did you hear from Pratt via email, snail mail or phone call etc? Accepted at MICA (Illustration) and Pratt (CommD MFA).

mfafingerscrossed Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Same here. What other schools are you considering? i was also waitlisted for MICA today. better than a rejection, but disappointed.
mfafingerscrossed Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Congrats! I was thrilled to get an acceptance letter from MICA this afternoon!
presson Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Congrats! Thank you. A friend of mine who also applied to the program claimed that she received a phone call informing her that she was wait-listed. Did that happen to anyone else?
designr Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 (edited) Hey! Congrats! I know you really wanted MICA!! Good job! I was thrilled to get an acceptance letter from MICA this afternoon! Edited March 21, 2011 by designr

If you or anyone wants my honest opinion on Pratt CommD MFA, message me. Although I didn't go through their graduate program, I got my BFA CommD there.
wooboogooboo Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Email. How did you hear from Pratt via email, snail mail or phone call etc?
designr Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Alright... has anyone heard back from RISD graphic design yet? I just talked to them on the phone and they said they should have decisions done by Friday.
aesthetic Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Alright... has anyone heard back from RISD graphic design yet? I just talked to them on the phone and they said they should have decisions done by Friday. no, but i didn't have an interview with them so i'm assuming i'm rejected...unless they don't interview everyone?
designr Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 They said they don't interview everyone.. and if you're dying to know if you're in or not, to give them a call on Monday. ::sigh:: no, but i didn't have an interview with them so i'm assuming i'm rejected...unless they don't interview everyone?
aesthetic Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 thanks for the heads up! i had no idea that they didn't interview everyone, so i just assumed that since i didn't hear from them (and i saw other people had interviewed) that it meant a rejection. I'll definitely be on the lookout for any word from them! thanks and good luck!

wooboogooboo Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I heard last Friday by email that I'm wait-listed for the 3-yr program... thanks for the heads up! i had no idea that they didn't interview everyone, so i just assumed that since i didn't hear from them (and i saw other people had interviewed) that it meant a rejection. I'll definitely be on the lookout for any word from them! thanks and good luck!
designr Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Awe man.. that probably means they have already made their decisions and contacted those accepted. Ah well! RISD was a nice dream. =/
presson Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 congrats! have you made a decision yet? Accepted by SVA today via snail mail.
mfafingerscrossed Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Thanks not yet...waiting on a few more schools...but I may have to make this decision soon. What about you? congrats! have you made a decision yet?
Fenceline Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Thank you! They do have a great TA program with tuition waivers plus stipends. I didn't know about the health coverage... I'll have to dig into that to learn more. Have you heard back from your schools yet? So I finally received my letter from Washington with all the assistance and stipend offers... just after I accepted RISD's offer.
presson Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Wow, congrats! Did UW make you a good offer? So I finally received my letter from Washington with all the assistance and stipend offers... just after I accepted RISD's offer.
sukhada Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Accepted by RIT. Rejected by MICA and RISD. Still waiting for SVA and SCAD. But I think i am gonna go for RIT. Didn't see anyone mentione RIT ? or i might have missed it out. If anyone's planning on going to RIT let me know.
Fenceline Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Wow, congrats! Did UW make you a good offer? Yes, they offered me a tuition waiver and health coverage, it's the best financial offer I got so far. Too bad I received this after I made my decision...
