Poodle-Doodle Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Hey @sylviecerise totally silly question but do you know if you can reorder the images in UCLA's application once uploaded? I dread the thought of having to delete everything just to upload them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo168 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 @sylviecerise Glad that you go it sorted out! Trying to get both UCI and UW sent out today. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylviecerise Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 @Poodle-Doodle I don't think that you can—I decided on order first and then uploaded. Super annoying. T__T I really wish everyone would use slideroom, it's worth paying the $10 min fee for. @Leo168 Thanks!! Good luck with UCI & UW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poodle-Doodle Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Anybody got their fee waived from Columbia or Hunter? Just curious? I feel as though I hadn't even finished typing Hunter to ask for one and they responded with a no. Columbia hasn't answered me at all. (UCLA also told me no) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tugbamina_871 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I wonder about Columbia's fee waiver too. I heard from previous years that they flat out did not do fee waivers (maybe I am imagining this?) so I didn't ask and was waiting for the absolute last second to put the $100 on my credit card... Good luck to all!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xxanderr Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Didn't end up applying to UCLA for the same reasons you guys are describing, plus I love my four seasons too much! I think one person posted they got in last year, they didn't both saying which program it was. UCLA Fee waivers are only offered to current seniors and you have to get a letter from your school financial aid office to be approved for one. UCLA has very nice funding you wouldn't need something like a diversity scholarship when the art department is already fully funding and includes a stipend.

Totally freaking unreal. Unsure what the deal is with the second year.... 2 On 3/19/2011 at 8:27 PM, ECM said: Just received a formal letter of admission to UCLA's Painting and Drawing program. Yip! After patiently waiting for months I know where I'm going. $15k (TA+scholarship from what I can tell by the letter?) not much but I'm willing to take the loans if I can establish residency in a year. It'll be worth it I think. ACT: I found out my status (rejection) from my slideroom account about a month back, they had put RJ on my application page, through the forum I figured it means a rejection. Best of luck to everyone this month! 1 Last year Columbia MFA Chair was nice enough to response back to my email to informing me that they do not offer fee waivers.

PoMo Blues Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I see SAIC is giving a grace period on Slideroom applications, makes it oh so tempting to apply to another program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think they'd of reviewed all the applications by today, and I'd assume they would review during business hours, so try to push your reviewer to submit before sunday! Thank you for the reply! My reference didn't submit until Monday night but I think I shoouuuuuld be okay. I didn't submit my application until Jan 2nd so mine will most likely be one of the last they review. Just hoping I get an interview .. Man, I can't believe there aren't any other graphic design applicants posting on here yet! C'mon guys ... where my digital comrades at?

PoMo Blues Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Submitted SAIC Photo this morning. I didn't realize they would give you until the end of the week to complete unfinished applications (in case anyone else is torn about applying to multiple programs).

meghanmetier Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Everyone that applied to Tyler, how early did you submit the Temple application? I didn't submit everything until the 13th, since the Temple application asked for a statement of goals (which I assumed was the same statement we were to write and attach to slideroom?) I sent my transcripts and my letters of recommendation are done but now I'm psyching myself out that everything wont be processed before they review applications.

meghanmetier Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Also should we start hearing back if we get interview? I may have to turn off gmail notifications on my phone so I don't have anxiety attacks at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I submitted the Temple application on 12/17 to be safe. I got a receipt of my application three days later. Since Tyler is quite nebulous about what "well before the deadline" means, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I don't think there's anything in the Temple application that they will be reviewing that wasn't in the Slideroom application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tunamindmelt Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hey Ya'll- is anybody applying with a ceramics portfolio? What programs are you applying to? It can be a pretty different situation for us ceramics people- just wondering what you guys think about how the approach differs. Good luck to all! Im just applying to Hunter (clay and casting) and Columbia Sculpture this year. Maybe NYU? www.rebexman.com Poodle-Doodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xxanderr Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Well, it looks like I'll be putting all my eggs in one basket, finger crossed! I'm still waiting for ONE MORE letter of rec. Tyler MFA Painting Admissions says that all my letters must be in by Jan 17. I submitted my temple application Jan 08, btw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're work is great! Love the black sculptural piece. I did a residency at Cal State Long Beach and loved it there- since you're looking at Cali schools maybe you'd be interested in their grad program. Thanks for taking a look at my work!

Poodle-Doodle Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hey guys, So I am thinking about thank you gifts that I can send to my recommenders but I am a bit stuck. I don't want to be too cheesy but at the same time I am watching the amount of $$$ that I am going to spend. Any suggestions? If you wrote a recommendation for someone what would be an appropriate gift? Also is it too early to send thank you's, should I wait until I hear back from programs? Thanks in Advance!

In my opinion, it's better to do it earlier--I've already sent some. But that's just me. I hand made some cards and incorporated scraps and "pieces"/scraps of photos that I have been recently working on, including a thoughtful note in each one. I am curious as to what other people did, too. :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking about asking the same question here yesterday haha. I'm probably going to send something out this week or next & then send an email update with what my success rate is. Thinking of baking something with as few allergens as possible, getting bottles of wine, or buying them coffee beans. + a handwritten note.
