Accepted to MICA Hoffberger! With a pretty generous scholarship! It seems I didn't catch anyone else's attention, but I couldn't be happier with MICA. I loved the school and the people when I visited. So glad the wait is over. I hope everyone else hears good news, and soon.

Congratulations, that's awesome! So nice to hear that someone is going to a place they are very happy with! I think you might be one of the first ones to make a declaration that you will be attending as well, best of luck!

Yeah, I've noticed that, but I don't have any other offers to consider! haha. As you can see, I'm not too broken up about it. I'm glad I only applied to a short list of schools that I would be enthusiastic about going to--any one of them would have thrilled me.

Ok, thanks! When I log in there's only one tab: mynewschoolhome, so I guess there's still no decision for me, I'll have to keep waiting... "paitently"...

Ok well in that case maybe I've gotten in... but I am still unable to access the financial aid link. When I click check your financial aid status, it says this function is not enabled for user or something. That's the big question, if I get the funding to go there... Apparently the scholarship has gone down from last year. I remember somebody getting 75% scholarship last year, this year in my skype interview they told me the max. scholarship is 65%... but haha I'd be ok with that ;)

Just got officially accepted into SFAI! Now I'm waiting on rejections from Columbia and Slade, and still haven't given up hope on SVA (I wonder if I am being naive in that hope).

Congrats!!! If I may, how did you hear?

Thanks!

And also...phone call from SMFA, accepted.

Congratulations. That's awesome!

Would love to see a link to your work, maybe we painters could all learn something.

Good luck with the rest of your journey.

I would say at this point if we haven't been contacted for an interview, we shouldn't bet on it. I know people on here said that interview requests went out a few weeks ago. Though, who knows - it ain't over til it's over.

I still haven't heard from Columbia, maybe I should call and check on my application, 2 years later? Actually schools are insane. While in graduate school, I have recieved emails from 2 schools about applications. One was a school I did apply to, the year before, and was accepted. The other was a school that I had never contacted or applied to, that sent me an email about an interview. Someone else must be using my email address for MFA applications.

Where on line can you see your chapel hill status? Feel like I'm in a black hole - not a peep from UCLA, UNC Chaple Hill, or VCU

No freaking kidding, VCU needs to get their act together. I called the VCU graduate office, and they said our online application won't tell us whether or not we've been accepted.

Did they say when they're going to be sending out decisions?

Maybe the one you got into refuses to accept that you turned them down and the other one has realized how glorious your work is and wants to recruit you! ;)

Was accepted today to VCU, but without any funding unless enough people with funding turn them down (doubt that happens very much). I really want to go there, but without funding I may not be able to.

I started getting emails about financial aid and admission events, so I called and it took them about 2 seconds to let me know that I was accepted! :)

Before you received the call, did your online admssion status say "decision ready" by any chance? I was told by my interviewer that I will know by Tuesday the latest, and I still haven't, I think this is very bad :(

Hello, A friend just told me about this forum. I wish I had known about it before, as you all seem to be so supportive and helpful as we all navigate this uber-stressful process. I am wondering if anyone has heard back from UC Irvine after interviewing last week? I am on pins and needles. My gut reaction is that I have not been admitted as I have not heard a word from them.

I called and was told that they were still figuring everything out. Hopefully tomorrow will bring some news :/

Just a heads up for RISD folks: for those of you who don't follow the admissions group on Facebook, they are starting to notify people starting tomorrow, continuing through the end of next week. Supposedly everyone should be notified on or before the 24th.

For those of us who haven't had interviews, here's to us in hopes of some kind of massive divine intervention! Cheers!

Well sounds like a no go for RISD for me. I seriously doubt they would admit me without and interview. I'll what for my letter though.

Also Pratt says no by mail...

Well, I hear you, I'm not expecting much from them either. But hey, one never knows the mysterious ways of art institutions . . .

was everyone contacted today??? i also still have in review comment...what major are u ysun71088

I'm Painting. But with SMFA I feel like they wouldn't differenate by department all that much as far as the admission process goes...with what my interviewer said, this would be a really cruel way to reject me...T________T
