Atlantis Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Chicago offers have gone out like two weeks ago, I think.
c m Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Yes, I noticed that. And seems like a lot of responses have been coming out this week. On an unrelated note. Is anyone getting a thank you gift for your letter writers? And if so, what?
grad_wannabe Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Yes, I noticed that. And seems like a lot of responses have been coming out this week. On an unrelated note. Is anyone getting a thank you gift for your letter writers? And if so, what? I'm from a different forum (hi!) but someone gave me the idea of getting a tiny little piece of swag from my chosen program, like a pennant or toy mascot or something, along with a nice thank-you note.
c m Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Thanks for popping in I really like that idea -- I printed a card that had images of different works of art I have dealt with during my undergraduate program and I really like how it turned out!
drrr Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I just saw a MA admit to Courtauld on the board. I had a skype interview two weeks ago and hasn't heard of anything since then. Now I'm panicking.
BeforeBach4 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I'm still waiting to hear from MD too. Thanks for the reply, Tina! I'm glad I'm not the only one. Would you mind if I asked your focus and who you'd like to work with? You can PM me if you prefer. Thanks!
im4nrt Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I just saw a MA admit to Courtauld on the board. I had a skype interview two weeks ago and hasn't heard of anything since then. Now I'm panicking. I had a Skype interview 2 weeks ago as well, haven't heard back yet either. My interviewer said that I would hear from admissions in a few weeks, so any day now......

This waiting game is killing me.
angela_ Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Hi im4nrt, nice to know I'm not the only one. I would really appreciate any news now. This waiting game is killing me. a girlfriend of mine is in one of the contemporary ma programs over at the courtauld at the moment. she found out way later than her other friend, because all the supervisors let their students know at different times, so i wouldn't worry.
thingtheories Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Lots of Berkeley rejections today...myself among them. Hang in there kiddos!
grad_wannabe Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 A close friend just told me he was rejected by the art history program at columbia. I just checked the results board and looks like he wasn't the only one ... hang in there everybody!
brown_eyed_girl Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Who are the other Columbia admits? Are you going to the Open House? I suppose we'll meet soon enough but I'd love to connect with you guys beforehand.
Nesbit Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Hi im4nrt, nice to know I'm not the only one. I would really appreciate any news now. This waiting game is killing me. I'm another one anxiously watching the Courtauld admits appear. I wish i knew what options the admits were for!
happy little pill Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) My first presumed rejection today after meeting with my POI. Ugh. :/ She said that after reading my final proposal, she wasn't sure if the institution was the best fit. I attempted to steer her otherwise because I do really think that I'm a fit with their institution but I doubt that she's going to forward my application on. It's a good thing I was accepted somewhere else or I'd be going mental. Edited February 19, 2015 by happy little pill
drrr Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I'm another one anxiously watching the Courtauld admits appear. I wish i knew what options the admits were for! Hi Nesbit. I know, especially when there's three admits now already. I sincerely hope that they are not from my option. I applied to (Re)Made China, what about you?
Nesbit Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Hi Nesbit. I know, especially when there's three admits now already. I sincerely hope that they are not from my option. I applied to (Re)Made China, what about you? Gothic Encounters - All three of my options included an architecture element. My fingers are crossed for us all still waiting!

im4nrt Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Hi Nesbit. I know, especially when there's three admits now already. I sincerely hope that they are not from my option. I applied to (Re)Made China, what about you? I applied to (Re)Made in China as well! wonder which 3 options those admits on the chart are from... saw on the website that Modernism after Postmodernism, Documentary Reborn, Sex & Violence and Global Conceptualism are already oversubscribed and aren't open to late applicants.
drrr Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Gothic Encounters - All three of my options included an architecture element. My fingers are crossed for us all still waiting! Good luck to you too!!
drrr Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I applied to (Re)Made in China as well! wonder which 3 options those admits on the chart are from... saw on the website that Modernism after Postmodernism, Documentary Reborn, Sex & Violence and Global Conceptualism are already oversubscribed and aren't open to late applicants. I hope we can be schoolmate then! After the interview Wenny told me I would hear back from the school "real soon". Now it's been two weeks....
GhostsBeforeBreakfast Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 I wish people would update the boards within 24hrs of hearing a decision, official or not.
Blueberry_Muffin Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Has anyone else simply not heard back from Columbia? I have not received any sort of email, and no decision is displayed when I log into my account. Clerical error? Unofficial waitlist? Okay to contact the program administrator for an update??
Blueberry_Muffin Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 PS: Whoa! Just took a look at the "results search" for Columbia. Why are there so many rejections this year?? Seems as if they accepted a much higher percentage of their applicants last year (if the anonymous reports on gradcafe are anything to judge by). Wonder what gives?
PoeticNobleLandMermaid Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I just noticed someone else posted an acceptance to New Mexico (the other is mine). If you wouldn't mind, can you tell me what you area of interest is? And what your thought are on the program? Feel free to PM me! Thanks! c m 1
Nesbit Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I can finally claim one of the Courtauld acceptances! So excited. I mentioned earlier I only applied to one program, and I am so relieve putting all my eggs in one basket worked out. I was sorry to see all those Columbia rejections. I hope the rest of this final week of Feb is filled with Art History Acceptances on that results page c m and neongolden 2
