bwd2109 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Last year, the Rutgers results were staggered. Some got interviews and some were accepted without. I want to say it was over a few weeks that people heard. They sent rejections to people at the same time too. And grandguignol, don't let it get you down. Last year I applied to 5 schools and only got an interview at 1. At the interview, it was very apparent that it was not the right school for me. This year I researched schools a little more, cast a wider net and applied to 12 programs, and I've already got 1 acceptance and 5 interviews. A year really can make all the difference. paint_and_destroy, Dogss, gtakaoka and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I remembered seeing that about Rutgers too. It's a weird process, I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of this madness in addition to a weird missed call on Skype from Penn today (interview was yesterday so I know it was a mistake, but it's making me crazy)...oy vey... @grandguignol I wouldn't fret just yet! We're still early in the process (even though it feels like forever already), and I am pretty sure silence is still better than an outright rejection because programs could still be doing some shuffling around as far as their crop of candidates goes. Sometimes I feel like gradcafe can make things more stressful because we're all banding together on here, trying to decode the top-secret workings of these selection committees from the outside. It might be helpful to be remember that, acceptances/interviews or not, we're all kind of kicking ass just by not drinking ourselves into a coma/jumping off bridges while we trudge through this insane rat race. arte, hypoart, Relm and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypoart Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 (edited) MassArt interview!! Now I have to send a portfolio. Do you think I should print only the work that I submitted (which includes some installation based pieces) or print a new sequence of images?

I'm trying to decide that too for my Irvine interview. I think I'm going to bring the work I submitted only with maybe one or two new pieces.

Maybe this should be posted to a different thread, but we're all reading this one regularly so why not. My current plans involve going over that handy interview question sheet that has floated around for a year or two on this forum, re-reading my statement of purpose/artist statement/etc that I sent to that school (since each school wanted slightly different information), and preparing some questions for the interviewers in case they ask (they always seem to). Also...praying to every deity that I can think of and asking them to help me not sound dumb. P.S. congrats on everyone who's getting good news! Could you link to that interview question sheet perhaps? I tried searching for it but it seems to be buried. Good luck on your interview!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtakaoka Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I just started a thread for 2016 interviews: Perhaps it will die a horrible death and I will have to make a moderator delete it in order to save face. But I added those questions on there too, so we can get to them more easily. Relm and stephku 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
