Alment Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 4 hours ago, BlCEO said: OH MAN. I just got a call from Columbia. I answered the phone and once she said who it was I quickly remembered I didn't apply to Columbia, and they were looking for Teach America. Dammit grad school gods. HA! Ugh my heart skipped a few beats when I read your first sentence. According to my search in the results section Columbia won't notify for a bit still.... Yale on the other hand... Well it seems like for the past few years Yale has updated the status of applications online late at night towards the end of this week. So maybe this friday? AHH I'm also concerned that SAIC has sent out some interview invites in the mail for performance, maybe other media is soon to follow? Since SAIC seems to accept a larger margin I am going to feel really defeated if I don't get an invite there. Please update if you hear from SAIC in other departments!

nikcav Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 For the sake of all of our sanity, I really hope we all start hearing things this week. I'm ready to cry, especially since it's already been 3 weeks since the deadline of two of my applications. Alment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get this letter mailed to you through the post or through email? Good luck with your interview!!! Thank you Alment, don't worry about it. I think faculty of performance program viewed faster than others. I also apply other programs in SAIC, still no feedback. Alment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based off of last year, those of us who applied to UC-Irvine and Northwestern should hear from them by the end of the week. Fingers crossed!

siljan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 one of the programs I applied to let me know that they would be reviewing applications in February, and decisions would be announced in late March. So... I am not holding my breath for replies, though I do hope that some of them arrive sooner than that... Alment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alment Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Ya instead of working on finishing my Cranbrook essays (2 Two page essays?, come on now) I looked through the results from previous years and expect to hear about interviews around: Yale- end of January Bard- "Week of Feb 1" -from website SAIC- by early February VCU- early February CalArts- week of Feb 7-14 RISD- mid February Cranbrook- mid February UCLA- week of Feb 21-28 Columbia- week of Feb 21-28 Hunter- by end of February Rutgers- no idea because they didn't used to host interviews. Interview day is scheduled for March 4th. Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yessssssss Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 For those who have finished applying I wonder if you, like me, have found it hard to work in the studio? Or have you felt a weight lifted and are actually more productive now? I'm having a serious mental block since I've submitted my apps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter, all the way! I am in love with Hunter but I don't know if they'll be in love with me. If by some chance I got into Yale or UCLA I would likely attend them instead... unless I found that financially it would be impossible. But yeah, I'm pretty dead set on Hunter primarily, and I think it is sliiiightly more obtainable even though its still extremely competitive. After that I'd have to stick with Cali and NY and say Columbia, Bard, CalArts ...and the rest i'm not sure where I stand with them but I am really excited about the prospect of any of them. I know I applied to really amazing programs so I may not even get an interview from any of them. I just don't believe in safety schools because there's no point in getting an MFA if its not an experience you're completely thrilled about.

Some days I'll go to the studio and CRANK; other days I can't resist the siren song of the internet. It did take me a few days after the applications were in to get back to the studio and start working again, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
