lawrencegl Posted April 5, 2012 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.
cxxxxxx Posted April 5, 2012 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.
thisandthat Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 It's very unlikely you'll get funding from gsa.
lawrencegl Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 Thanks for the thoughts guys. SUNY Purchase vs. GSA is tough.
