lawrencegl Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm a sculptor working primarily in steel trying to decide between these three schools. I also got in to SFAI but funding wasn't working out the way I would have liked. UNC-CH is offering a really good deal plus a stipend, SUNY Purchase is offering a good deal (almost 100%), and Glasgow doesn't let you know about funding until after you say yes. Glasgow would be great but their metal shop is only open one day a week. I am concerned about the program reputations of UNC and SUNY P... although they are good programs they were not what I was planning on. Any thoughts? Should I wait and apply again next year? I'm at a stalemate and have thought myself into a knot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cxxxxxx Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 oops didnt see t=the stipend with UNC-CH I wouldn't accept a position in another country without knowing about any funding if I already had a free ride from a reputable university at home. Unless it was imperative to my work that I travel elsewhere to make it! Although GSA is a very good school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisandthat Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 It's very unlikely you'll get funding from gsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
