PhotoApp Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Does anyone know how Tulane notifies applicants? I know they had a late submission date, but I would Iike to know if they use Internet or snail mail.
calebelijah Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 They called me on the phone with my notification. Haven't received any snail mail or email yet, though.
PhotoApp Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 You were already notified of your acceptance? Congrats. Which discipline? Guess I didn't make the cut since I haven't heard anything..
calebelijah Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) Mine was for Painting. That said, I haven't received any hard materials yet, just correspondence with the dept. head. She may do things differently than the Photo dept head (I'm assuming by your screen name that you're photo). not sure. Best of luck! Edited March 2, 2012 by calebelijah PhotoApp and Eigen 1 1
PhotoApp Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Thanks. I'll keep a good thought. Best of luck to you. It looks as though you have some good choices to make.
Hindinwood Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 On this subject- I just received a letter from Tulane School of Liberal Arts, saying that they would not be able to recommend my application due to the quality of the applicant pool this year. This is based on my transcripts I assume, which is strange because I have very good grades in my discipline over all. Has anyone experienced this with this school or other schools that go through a Liberal Arts School before the actual art department. Does this mean that the Art Dept. didn't actually even look at my work? I am more than a little baffled by this.
Hindinwood Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Now that I think of it, I have a BS (in film), not a BA or BFA. I wonder if that's a deal-breaker...?

Transcripts likely have nothing to do with it unless they are dismal. Art schools make the major cut based on the portfolio. All the other materials are a distant consideration to the work. Now that I think of it, I have a BS (in film), not a BA or BFA. I wonder if that's a deal-breaker...? No it is not a deal-breaker. Your degree could be in math and they would still consider you if you have the kind of art work they are looking for.
Hindinwood Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Yeah you're right, I re-read it. Guess I just don't have the kind of work they are looking for...
