I was informed that different CMU faculty have been assigned to contact semi-finalists based upon their interest in their work. If you haven't heard from yours they're still just probably getting around to it. ;)

I felt the same way, but then it all happened super fast. Was contacted by email last night and then had my interview shortly after (today). You'll see! The person I interviewed with was fantastic. I'm in love with everything CMU.

you could log in your application account and check if the university has updated results. Or you could call their admissions office... but they might not want to give you that info

Honestly I really hope they will contact me soon. I really like the broad spectrum of the program and the way they have outlined its conceptual bases. It seems very stimulating. Was the interview relaxed or more on the in-depth kind? 

I hope your interview went well, you seem like a nice person :)

Columbia said if we haven't heard from them at this point, we're out of the game. They don't even send out rejection notices they said (wth). After living in NY for several years, the fact that we paid 125-ish bux to have our work looked at for...half a minute maybe...doesn't get more quintessentially NYC than that!

Aw, thanks. It was an in-depth, yet very casual interview. Thought it went really well. But they said 21 finalists are competing for 7 spots...yowzers!

Sidenote - I don't know if anyone here uses squarespace (or maybe your site hosting does this, too)... but I'm so/too obsessed with the Activity Log that as all the IP addresses and page visits of those visiting your site. Leads me to constantly check if people from schools I applied to are visiting, ahhhh. I remember someone asked me about it a while back - Google Analytics doesn't list IPs (although you can find ISP's via GA), so wack. Check if your hosting vendor has something like this!

 

Or don't actually. It's a total time-suck :\

I'm not sure this is true- I applied last year and got a rejection letter. It took a really long time though. They don't send rejections until they have already conducted all interviews and offered admission as far as I could tell.

Maybe whoever I spoke with didn't know what they were talking about. I thought it sounded crazy too.

Hi, Madhini. I don't recall the pages, but I know people have said they were already interviewed and made offers from both Uconn and UOregon. I recall this because I too applied there and haven't heard anything from them! At this point, for those two schools, I'm personally assuming rejection. I do not know about the others off hand. Good luck!

I finally got my first result! Got accepted to MFA in Studio Art, focus on painting at Texas Tech University. I haven't seen anyone here had applied to the same universities as mine. However, I thought it is good to share the news that might be useful for someone some day! ;)

They offered  me 1000 $ scholarship that qualifies me for in-state tuition in the amount of 2500 $. Plus TA that pays 8250 $ for a year.

That's awesome! Art & Tech sounds so great, and smart!

Thanks Marchy! Actually I hope I get my best offer from those art & tech programs. It is more relevant to my major; animation.

Thank you Valoia. I'm presuming I've been rejected too. Congrats on the PNCA and SFAI acceptances. Hope you get a great scholarship =)

Has anyone heard anything about SAIC's printmedia dpt? They just had interviews but I'm wondering when and if they've started calling admitted students?

VCU. Had Skype interview. Reject email about 10 days later. Wha Wha! It's ok. Didn't see myself in Virginia. Other things in the hopper.

I have Squarespace too, and it's definitely a dangerous rabbit hole. Before I got my interview I was obsessed with checking my analytics and then cross-referencing with a website that can pinpoint the city and state of IP addresses. It definitely wasn't healthy. Luckily, I've kicked that habit since I had my interview. Now back to refreshing my e-mail 1,000 times a day...

When I asked in my interview my panel said we should hear this week or next if you're accepted (most likely a phone call, but could be an email). Otherwise, I believe rejections are sent out mid-late March...

I'm dying waiting for fibers and sculpture to call me back.... :(.... Do ya'll think they tell us about whether we been chosen for a merit scholarship in the initial phone call/email telling us we're accepted?
