[Colin]

SFAI - nothing as of 2/13/09

someone in another thread heard back from them last week re: painting EDITED to add: they contacted him for an interview

[helenforsdale]

i applied to columbia, also photo - haven't heard anything.

i know yale, cal arts, uc irvine are sending out interview notifications...

[kashrus2008]

Has anyone heard anything from SAIC (Photography) yet? They said that people who are invited to interview there will be notified by mid-Feb. I haven't received anything from them except the letter saying that they received my applications.

[baybay]

i've heard back from sfai -- interviewed about a week ago there.

havent heard anything but echos from

parsons

cca

icp

sva

i have a friend who has been asked to interview at saic and icp.

Hey Bay

ICP has rolling admissions, so depending when you applied you are still in the running

I sent in my app in early JAN and have an interview scheduled for March15th

I interviewed at Parsons late last week....friday i think. I got the impression that they made their cut, but they were also severely disorganized. They could barely direct me to the right building. It wouldn't surprise me if they were still offering interviews.

I didn't apply to SVA but I know they report later than most.

best of luck

[Colin]

I saw someone else accepted to SFAI for photography in the results, dated yesterday...?

I received an acceptance letter today, dated 3/12.

$ pending...

I got onto a waiting list for Rutgers. I found out about a week ago that i was supposed to send official transcripts from the school i attended freshman year in undergrad. it was on the official transcripts i sent from the school i graduated from but it held up most of my applications. I will probably just have to reapply next year when i may be a little less busy and more prepared.

Im still waiting to hear back from RISD. Anyone heard from them?

[cbonet]

Still haven't herd from RISD. I got accepted via phone for Columbia College Chicago. Is any one else going to Columbia?

SVA-Rejected

Yale- Rejected

SAIC- Rejected

[cithea]

I have not heard from RISD either.

Has anyone heard from ICP upon going in for the interview?

[cbonet]

RISD

I talked to someone in the amdissions office at RISD yesterday. She told me that the photography department has not turned in there files yet. She said that hopefully they will have them out in a week.

[kashrus2008]

I got an email from RISD informing me that I have been included in the wait list on 3/19.

[canfac]

Hey Cithea,

I interviewed at ICP two sundays ago (the 15th). Haven't heard yet. Nayland said they would get back to us in a week or two. I'm guessing it could be any day now.

where else did you apply?

Yale:interview (monday)

ICP: interviewed (15th) waiting

Parsons: accepted

hunter, columbia: rejected

[ramamama]

I have not heard from RISD either.

Has anyone heard from ICP upon going in for the interview?

yes, i heard on the 24th and got in to ICP.

anyone heard from risd photo? i haven't had an interview so i'm not too optimistic

[cithea]

ramamama: congrats on ICP! I got on their waitlist so I'm curious to know by what date do you have to confirm/accept? I got into SVA but am holding out on SVA (they want an answer by 4/15) because I want to see if I get into ICP -- of course that depends on when they're expected to have in-house all graduate accepters before waitlisted people are considered..

Thanks for any input!

[ramamama]

ooh then it's going to be tough- ICP wants an answer by April 13th. Good luck!

So are you more interested in the ICP program over SVA? I didn't apply anywhere else in NY really want to go to Carnegie Mellon. waiting...

[cithea]

oh thanks for the date! that is gonna be tricky.. It will probably be too late... I'm still not decided but I would also be happy at SVA. Good luck with Carnegie Mellon!

[ramamama]

does anyone know what's going on with carnegie mellon?

[ramamama]

is anyone considering going to icp bard? comments?

[adeepriver]

I am deciding between ICP and SVA, and having a hard time of it.

every time i think i have decided, i read or hear something that changes my mind. I guess i have till Monday, and since i live in NYC, i might just have to drop off the deposit myself...

what are your reservations or factors about icp? for me, besides the price tag, i'm not super impressed with the work coming out of there. have you been around to have a different experience?
