I just wanted to post this document I got today, since I wasn't aware of the specifics and maybe others weren't as well. I've been accepted to Syracuse for ceramics, and they've given me a deadline for a week from today to let them know. However, I emailed some schools I haven't heard from yet, just to get a feel if I'd been accepted or rejected, and University of Colorado sent me back this document. Also I haven't gotten the offer from Syracuse in writing just yet, only a phone call this past Friday. Would it be safe to reference this document if the offer in writing comes back with the deadline of Monday? I knew about the April 15th deadline overall, but wasn't aware that schools apparently couldn't set earlier deadlines sighting 'funding offers' that would not stay on the table? Anyone have any input on this? (I'm pretty stressed..) PS: has anyone else heard from Ohio State, University of Colorado, or University of Nebraska for ceramics? CGS_ResolutionApril15-2009update.pdf CGS_ResolutionApril15-2009update.pdf what the document seems to say is this - you can accept your offer from Syracuse and then if you get an offer back from OSU, CU Boulder or UNL, etc., and change your mind about Syracuse - you can by notifying them in writing by April 15th (make sure its in their hands by April 15th - email and then mail with return receipt USPS). This may not make friends (in a small community such as ceramics) but its also your education. The schools that are on the list seem to be large research universities - and their signing of the agreement has more to do with fields such as science and less to do with art - so thats why (I assume) that schools like Alfred, Cranbrook and RISD are not on the list.

Anyone have any input on this? (I'm pretty stressed..) PS: has anyone else heard from Ohio State, University of Colorado, or University of Nebraska for ceramics? Congratulations on Syracuse, and good luck with your decision. I'd ask them if there is any period after you accept the offer that you have to change your mind. For example, I've been accepted to Cardiff School of Art and Design in Wales, and the offer clearly states that I have 14 days after accepting the offer to change my mind. I'd be really disappointed if there's no grace there, especially since it seems other ceramics programs are really taking their time getting responses out. I'd think Syracuse would have to be dealing with this with all their acceptances, since very few have enough information to make a clear decision yet. It's definitely stressful when it feels like you have to gamble on the possibilities after all the work that's been put in. I've also applied to UNL in ceramics, as well as Alfred, Iowa, VCU, Tyler, and UGA. I haven't heard anything from any of these. I'm hoping this means that ceramics departments are just taking longer than others. Good luck to all on interviews and decisions!

I wonder if any emails for Columbia interviews have gone out yet? Just wishful thinking. I noticed the same on mine, I had a friend who was called by Columbia on the weekend but I don't know what they will do if they don't have a number for you.

Same, I didn't put a phone number, I imagine the emails will go out tomorrow. Just FYI I applied last year and I didn't get the rejection email until late march so I assume they send those out after they do their interviews. Weighted_by_Gold 1
hypoart Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I'm beginning to sound like a broken record, but has anyone out there heard from UNM yet?

langley Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Just now, koolio said: for MFA, Visual Art? Yeah, they said they were only accepting 4 students this year. I have a friend who also applied and hasn't heard anything, I'm assuming there is a waitlist and that they probably have only contacted the 4 accepted students thus far. koolio 1
