hello everyone,

this group is great! thank you for sharing so much nice stuff.

Has anyone applied for Royal Academy Schools in London?

On Friday I was invited for interview, it will be in March. I don't know anyone studying there. I wish to know a bit more before going to the interview.

Does anyone know (based on past years) when Northwestern might start sending out rejections/interview invitations?

I just searched through my gmail & I was notified of an interview at Northwestern on Wed, Feb 3, 2010 --- 7 years ago, last round I applied (whoa!)

Thanks for checking! Would be great if they still move that quickly... fingers crossed!

They prosponed the date to the 4th january actually. I almost missed it as well, but saw it still there on the 4th on slideroom and manage to send it.

Mmm, actually they had a first stage of the application for non EU on the 31st October indeed. That was basically to just send the CV and pay a $5 fee. Then they were supposed to pre-select the non EU based on CV. They never did so until the original date, which was on the 4th December. So then without letting the applicants know, they presponed the deadline to the 4th January. I only found out because of Slideroom system.

Because of all these mess that I am curious to know more about the school. I am enthuasistic about it but also a bit confused with their communication.

Congrats to everyone getting interview invitations!

 

Got a call from SAIC today for an interview. Not sure if I can make it to campus; hopefully asking to do a Skype interview isn't too big of a strike against me. 

 

Congrats! Which department are you interviewing for?

Has anyone from MassArt Low Res or SAIC Low Res heard back yet? :unsure:

Nothing on my end from SAIC. Starting to get antsy... Hopefully we will hear something soon, especially with two other departments trotting out interviews.

I got e-mailed to interview with PennDesign! Anyone else?

It's beyond relieving to know that at least one university has seen potential in my work.

Been excited about others chiming in with similar news! Congrats so far everyone. 

I will be interviewing with PennDesign as well. It's a fairly long drive for me, but I want to see the facilities so I think I will make it work.

Congrats!! Best of luck with the interview!

Just got a rejection email from them, but I wasn't too hopeful anyways. I'm just glad I already got an acceptance and an interview request from other schools before that, haha.

So good to hear!

I am debating on whether or not to make the drive. It would be 18 hours there and back, which is a fair amount of driving...if you're in Detroit, I imagine you would be expecting something similar. (Made the drive once when I lived there, actually. XD)

Hmm. Haha.

You're right - there and back in 18 hours for me as well. I'm looking at flights too, it might be cheaper than all the gas and tolls.
