gweaver Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi, Ceramics departments, my list and updates: University of Oregon: interviewed early last week. Ohio State: alternate Tyler: interviewed yesterday. University of Ohio VCU Alfred (word around the studio is that they called with acceptances Monday.) University of Georgia Let me know if anyone has anything on the ceramic departments! How was your interview for Tyler? I am curious to hear what they ask, if there was anything unexpected. Hope it went well for you. I have an interview with them for MFA Painting on March 3rd, getting nervous about it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClayandThings Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi all, are there any Jewelry and metalsmith out there? Do you ClayandThings know if there were interviews to the metal department at UO or Tyler or VCU or SMFA? hardly any news on our departments on this forum. If someone knows anything on the metal department please twit, Good Luck to all! How was your interview for Tyler? I am curious to hear what they ask, if there was anything unexpected. Hope it went well for you. I have an interview with them for MFA Painting on March 3rd, getting nervous about it. Thanks! I have no idea about the metal department, sorry! The interview was via skype, really casual. They asked me the usual questions "Why Tyler? Why grad school? Goals for after grad school? Talk about my studio practice and research" I answered the question about my plans for after graduate school saying 'becoming a successful artist' so they followed up with 'how do I define success?' Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idioteck Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Damn! I haven't heard anything from U of Oregon yet. Thought I had a good shot at their program. Just have to wait and see how it all shakes out I guess...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helps! Awesome! Thank you! I am traveling to Philly for my interview, but I'm sure the questions will be similar. Good luck, I hope you get in! I'm getting more and more excited, the more I read about the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightswitch Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I just got an SMFA interview invite via email. They actually sent out Paperless Post invitation cards -- what a nice and pleasant surprise! I totally appreciate a gesture like that in this crazy, incredibly stressful process.

ArsenicYellow Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) Just got an email for an interview at SMFA on March 9th 8am-6pm. Been super stressed about grad school/valentines day this week, so this makes me feel a little better.

beards Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Anyone hear back from UT Austin yet about interviews? Checking my email obsessively. I had an interview with the painting dept 2/1, but haven't heard anything since...my friend had an interview with them the week before I did and they told her it would be about a month before we heard, so I'm really hoping to hear next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkeezySquid Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Got an e-mail from MICA this morning. They want an interview. I'm super nervous, though.

Hi tarasigillata, I still haven't heard anything either. The silence has been a bit unnerving, but I'm maintaining my optimism. The schools I have applied to for ceramics are listed below.

Does anyone have any experience with MFA program interviews (or MICA specifically)? What kind of questions can I expect? Are you interviewing for Illustration? If you interview with Whitney Sherman, she's super nice. Really really cool lady and really sticks her neck out for her students. The new Illustration grad studios are gorgeous.

Erpnope Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yes, it looks like I'll be interviewing with Whitney Sherman and Jaime Zollars. Have you interviewed with her as well? No, I just had a lot of friends who had her before she built the grad program and have met her a few times. From what I've heard Jaime is great as a teacher and as a person.

jwu Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Tyler MFA painting applicants, I just contacted the admissions, and they are still reviewing applications, they told me that I should hear back from them in 2-4 weeks.... ten-of-swords 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwu Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 any insiders on this????? why I saw some people already got interview invites for some programs, but my online application status is still "complete-ready for review"? don't they go through all applications at once and select finalists for interview? depends from program to program? or at this point, "complete-ready for review" is just a nice way of saying "you didn't make the finalists, and we will send you a rejection later"???

hwrios Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 REALLY PEOPLE?! REALLY?!!?!?! (not you guys) Yeah, so i check the mail, and wow... a big thing from Carnegie Mellon, and one from Pratt! Just graduate catalogs. Thankfully, I was prepared for this, since someone had posted it earlier, plus I didn't apply to Pratt (I don't even remember going on their website). But really, how cruel can they get? I mean, why do they send these out several weeks after the deadlines have passed? Oh well, at least i have some free magazines now.
