Expand Yeah, the core program is very particular about what kind of artist they accept. Usually very theoretical artists--I've also heard from one former fellow that she only go in because someone in her MFA program knows the people at Core. Have you ever applied to the Galveston Artist Residency? It's another good one near Houston, year long, they give you an apartment (core doesn't), studio, a bicycle, maybe a stipend as well. Deadline is coming up.
Gato04 Posted March 14, 2016 Author Posted March 14, 2016 Yes, I've heard similar things about core....I actually just found out and submitted an application for Galveston a couple of days ago! Let's see what happens...It seems like a very good program...

Expand I see you got into UCI-- congrats! -- have they sent you more information? I talked to a friend of mine there an apparently they haven't made all decisions yet and are contacting people on a rolling basis....so far you're the only person I know who has interviewed and heard back!

Expand There are two other people who go in on the forum (one in the curating program). I received my offer letter last week. I might've been admitted earlier than others, I think, because I was put up for a fellowship through the graduate division. I haven't officially accepted yet because I'm just waiting to have my offer letter updated now that I've gotten the fellowship results. Edited March 15, 2016 by cpw0021

Expand @Gato04 A little over a week ago I had a couple views of each video I submitted, but nothing since (loads or views). Gato04 1
Gato04 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Posted March 22, 2016 zaumnik do you have vimeo? because I've heard that people that got accepted in the past have been viewed until the end of March so maybe you're in the final round...I haven't had any views from them this month....
Gato04 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 whoevenknows, In the past it has been around the 6th-7th of April. I don't know if they'll notify earlier this year since they had an earlier deadline than previous years.
PoMo Blues Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Just got a rejection from Guttenberg Arts. Can never tell if the "we strongly suggest you apply again" or "we look forward to seeing your next application" are serious or just obligatory.
Gato04 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 PoMo Blues, I think that actually means your application was considered until the last round of reviews....I would take it as encouraging and reapply next year.... PoMo Blues 1
sylviecerise Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Has anyone who applied to Elsewhere heard back yet? Their website says that notifications should go out Mid-March, wondering if they're just running late going through applications. I got a couple of hits from Greensboro on my website last week, so hopeful.

Expand Thank you for this. Rejections are already hard to swallow, so I try not to get my hopes up too much. Good to know there is a silver lining in this case.

Gato04 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Posted March 27, 2016 You're welcome PoMo Blues! good luck with your application next year! PoMo Blues 1
cpw0021 Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 So I guess we should hear back next week, right? Starting to get nervous.... What else is everyone waiting on? I'm still waiting to hear back about funding from ACA. Gato04 1
PoMo Blues Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 I'm waiting on Anderson Ranch to release decisions on the Tom Sachs workshop, 23 Days at Sea, and the Sharpe-Walentas studio program. Gato04 1
Gato04 Posted March 29, 2016 Author Posted March 29, 2016 I'm really anxious about Skowhegan! I'm waiting on Camargo and advanced to final round on FAWC...let's see...
