@thiswildballoon if you have interviewed, then you should just wait till at least 14th.

They didn't ask me for an interview but they said the decision letters will be out on the 14th. If I'm rejected I would rather them just tell me now.

Thanks everybody for the love! 

Well done on all of your acceptances and stipends!
Excited to see where you will head and the work you will make in the next two years!!

Anyone for ICP-Bard?

[crembrule]

@Poodle-Doodle let us know where you decide! Have you heard from the financial dept of Columbia? Wondering about the scholarships they are offering...Did you tell them that you were accepted elsewhere with funding?

[Studiodiodio]

I'm getting a strange feeling that Columbia has been kinda slow Post-interview. Was your interview last week? It could be a tie up of paperwork with admissions or potentially just them having a difficult time choosing.

I had an interview on Monday there (which I totally bombed ?). They said they are meeting Friday to make decisions but I might not hear for a couple of weeks.  I'm still anxiously awaiting Northwestern's decision.  This process is torture.

Yes, it was just on Friday. I know it has not been much of a wait yet but I have been feeling crazy anxious. Thanks :-)

Mine was on Monday. I haven't sleep this poorly in a couple of months. May the admission gods release us of our pain soon hahaha.

Hmmmm, congrats on interview by the way. I'm assuming it's a no for me? No interview. I did tour the school last April and talked to Carl for a while. My wife even loved the school.

Yaaassssss!!!!

[Kamari]

Btw I've got a totally random question but I thought I'd ask (maybe some small talk might help us out a little) when it comes to when we expect to hear back and when the letters will be sent out; does anyone expect it to be in the morning? I figured it would usually happen by the time I wake up and look at my phone seeing as how I'm in LA and Columbia in is NY but seeing the replies of acceptances and everything kind of makes me think differently. I guess the letter can kinda come whenever? What do you all think?

I didn't apply to very many schools but it kind of seems like they come out whenever — leaning towards the later half of the day? I heard from RISD at 4:30 pm on a Sunday and from Calarts at 5pm on a Friday. For my yale interview I heard at like 10 pm on a Friday. Hahah so who knows!?

Yeah, I don't think there's a particular time. Apparently Yale released final decisions after the interview on Saturday at 2~3am ET last year.

Hi All!

I recently found this forum and though I'd share. I applied to Bard and Rutgers as a photo major.

 

Bard: Interview 3/4, Waitlisted (found out this afternoon)

Rutgers: Interview 3/3, Accepted (via phone call on Sunday night 3/5)

 

This process was much more intense than I thought it would be, and I haven't even applied to as many schools as some as the others!

 

Goodluck and Congratulations to you all.

Congratulations on Rutgers!!!! Did you get a call from a photo professor? Wondering if I should hold onto hope of not being on the waitlist if they're calling people slowly throughout the week.

Seriously haha, I'm debating whether I should drink all night so I can either celebrate drunk or be sad & drunk. Probably will actually just wake up early.

Yes!!! A better idea than drinking the night before!
