grawlix Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Has anyone hear anything from the University of Illinois Chicago for graphic design? I applied by the priority deadline and was accepted beginning of February. There was no interview process. I'm still waiting to hear about financial aid! Edited March 12, 2014 by grawlix
vickolors Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Anyone done hunter and columbia interview, what should I expect? applied for sculpture
graphichwchoi Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Conrats! I went to SAIC last year, the school was placed in the city. Also there are a lot of facilities for students to use for graphic design. It was really awesome !! I totally recommend SAIC Hi! I'm new to the forum and thought that I might ask for some information about schools... I just got accepted to SAIC and CalArts for their respective 3-year graphic design programs and am waiting to hear back from a couple of more schools before deciding. Does anyone know anything about them and would be able to offer some advice? I'll be visiting the schools soon to see for myself, and I know that SAIC has a great letterpress, etc, and has a little bit of money that they might be able to offer, and I also know that the program at CalArts is really incredible but has close to zero chances of offering me any kind of funding. Any words would be appreciated! Thanks!
Rother Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Minnesota rejection email went out this morning. Tulane Tulane Tulane. You are my only hope. Anyone heard anything from them yet?
spaz Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 UCLA rejection this morning too.... I guess next year I will have to broaden my school choices. Only applying to three schools probably didn't help me very much.
humrush Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Do you guys send thank you emails after your interviews? This is something i hear mixed opinions on. My interview was 6 days ago so I'm worried it's too late to send one anyways
bloodred Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I did and the professor seemed to really appreciate it.Do you guys send thank you emails after your interviews? This is something i hear mixed opinions on. My interview was 6 days ago so I'm worried it's too late to send one anyways

Catz4evr Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Acceptance phone call from saic fiber dept today Now to decide between cranbrook and saic. Argh
JoJoYang Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I applied by the priority deadline and was accepted beginning of February. There was no interview process. I'm still waiting to hear about financial aid! Congrats! I guess its pretty unlikely for me now, but I will not lose hope! What made you apply to them in the first place? Are you familiar with their program? I actually don't know much about the school. Anything helps! thanks!
ellephoto Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Rejected from UCLA this morning as well. Oh, c'est la vie! Do you guys send thank you emails after your interviews? This is something i hear mixed opinions on. My interview was 6 days ago so I'm worried it's too late to send one anyways Yes, I did. I think professors (well, anyone) welcomes you taking some time out of your day to say you appreciate their input. Edited March 12, 2014 by ellephoto
drusillatheteenagewitch Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Minnesota rejection email went out this morning. Tulane Tulane Tulane. You are my only hope. Anyone heard anything from them yet? I have not heard anything from u of minnesota...is it possible they stagger rejections? Hmm...no interview either, I wonder.
batman91 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Has anyone heard from IU's painting program yet? umbrellas 1
seasalt Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Rejected from UCLA this morning as well. Oh, c'est la vie! Yes, I did. I think professors (well, anyone) welcomes you taking some time out of your day to say you appreciate their input. I also did write thank you emails after my interviews. I think it really shows a level of professionalism and follow-up. And some times you can gage how your interviews went by their responses. ellephoto 1
bloodred Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I don't think IU had made or any decisions for most concentrations
egregore Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I'm joining the UCLA reject-club.... did anyone here get accepted? Not sure if I may have missed something. Got an interview at Colorado -Boulder and am on wait list at Cornell. Congratulations to all those who are receiving acceptances!!! And if you didn't get in this year, there is always next year. This process is so subjective and competitive so just keep trying if you feel that it is something you want to pursue. And my 2 cents is... go where the money is!!! Grad school is no guarantee these days. Some wise advice that I received recently from a fellow seasoned artist is that you don't want to go somewhere where you will be in a worse position than you are in now... and mostly he meant financially. Best of luck to everyone still waiting to hear ellephoto 1
bloodred Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 how did you like carl ostendarp at cornell? I respect him so much i was really hoping to get to interview, but this was my first year applying....good advice! I'm joining the UCLA reject-club.... did anyone here get accepted?

gemjam Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Super excited, just got an email request for an interview from The University of Colorado in Boulder! Interview's this Friday… Congratulations! Waiting to hear from those people....probably not
gemjam Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Could I ask which major?? Sure, low residency studio art.
sarlizabeth Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I just was offered a $30,000/yr fellowship to SFAI. They want me to tell them my decision by the 26th, but I'm still waiting to hear back from my top choice school (MassArt). WHY ARE DECISIONS HARD! Do you guys think if I called/emailed MassArt and told them my situation, and that I received an offer from another school, but that they're my first choice school, if they could tell me if a decision has been made? (I know that sentence structure sucks, but I'm too anxious to fix it.)
bandito Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Does anyone else's decision status for UCLA still say, "To date, no decision has been made on your application"?
oakchild Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Way to go! I am also considering & most likely going to SFAI--how did you find about the fellowship? Good luck with MassArt, and maybe see you next year at SFAI! I just was offered a $30,000/yr fellowship to SFAI.

bloodred Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Got an email from cca today to check the Web portal does anyone else have financial aid stuff linked? Or does it still say error.
