KSuverkrubbe Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Does anyone know if RISD's painting program is doing early acceptances like RISD sculpture is? I haven't been notified by the painting program yet....... I think it may just be sculpture? But I doubt I am a top candidate so I don't know. It's supposed to be this week at least....(hopefully)
KSuverkrubbe Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 vcu? columbia? Is it a lost cause at this point for acceptance to their painting programs? i emailed VCU and they told me I didn't get in..so maybe emailing them will work.
thepictureisstill Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hey guys- this isn't perfectly in line with the thread, but SAIC folks, check it out!: http://hyperallergic.com/190950/is-the-school-of-the-art-institute-of-chicago-really-giving-kanye-west-an-honorary-doctorate/ Wow. I'd be pissed if they gave him an honorary doctorate and I was one of the people who had to pay $44k/year...
grosssss Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Anyone have insight to the Art Center MFA program? I got a big mailer this weekend to tell me I'm accepted but the admissions office said that I should get notice of financial aid by April 15...sitting on an awesome scholarship from CCA and pretty smitten with SF...
KSuverkrubbe Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Wow. I'd be pissed if they gave him an honorary doctorate and I was one of the people who had to pay $44k/year... He's an artist? I don't know...his music videos do get pretty artsy in some cases so maybe as a performance artist? I don't thnk he's really deserved a doctorate though.......
Marchy Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Carnegie Mellon interviewers do their presentations on each finalist today before the entire grad student and faculty body….then they vote….!!

KSuverkrubbe Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 RISD needs to hurry up and tell me no!!! lol

Kanye crosses over between art / performance and design, and is a GREAT fit for an SAIC honorary degree. They'd do well to have him as an alum, and it's great positioning for him to negotiate the directions he's pushing in his body of work. chiboi2015 and VLynn 1 1

NYTreader Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Carnegie Mellon interviewers do their presentations on each finalist today before the entire grad student and faculty body….then they vote….!! WOW! Decision by a gigantic committee. That always turns out well.
Marchy Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 WOW! Decision by a gigantic committee. That always turns out well. Ugh I know. It's a crapshoot. Factoring in what rank the presenter is in, how well they do presenting us, etc. My heart keeps skipping beats thinking about it. Milkyways- didn't mean to freak you out, lol.
yestoyeahhhh Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I did on 3/9. i think only two of us went to nyu interview lol
kernufchuel Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 SVA is still sending out acceptances to my knowledge. What program? Fine Arts. what about you?
tdevo412 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 i think only two of us went to nyu interview lol When was yours? How did it go?
thepictureisstill Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Kanye crosses over between art / performance and design, and is a GREAT fit for an SAIC honorary degree. They'd do well to have him as an alum, and it's great positioning for him to negotiate the directions he's pushing in his body of work. I am sure it'd be great for SAIC, yes. Obviously all personal opinion (and I am not saavy with celebrities or what goes on in their lives/performances etc), but damn...hopefully he sets up a Kanye fund for the performance department and maybe they can offer more money to accepted students in the future. I am not familiar with his work outside of College Dropout, which, was a good album. Edited March 17, 2015 by thepictureisstill

I am not familiar with his work outside of College Dropout, which, was a good album. Yeah I have to admit I am barely familiar with his work,especially his music videos. I watched one review on one of his music video and the person was giving it praise and it did appear very artistic to me .So I didn't want to completely rule him out either,but I wasn't sure if he deserved a doctorate or not. I think a lot of people don't think of him in the same vein as a fine artist. I have always thought he was very talented though, and is probably leagues above a portion of the other 'mainstream' singers in his genre. Regardless of his attitude (oh another very talented person who is artistic who thinks that they can tell what is good and what is not- imagine that ; that's sooo shocking lol)
yestoyeahhhh Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 When was yours? How did it go? mine was on 2/12, i think it went ok, but u never know lol. hope the decision will be sent out soon
lgrcwest Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 University of Washington painting people! I called the advising office and the lady on the phone said decisions should be sent out on the 20th.
Madhini Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Anyone knows when hunter will announce decisions?
olivem912 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 University of Washington painting people! I called the advising office and the lady on the phone said decisions should be sent out on the 20th. Good to know! Hopefully good news will come our way!
