Thanks! Best of luck to you! Did you apply for painting?

sure did! I wonder how many applicants they get a year. I know its competitive.  I think I have like a 5 percent chance. But hey, why not apply.

Congratulations! I just got my rejection letter from Northwestern. 

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. 

I got my rejection from Northwestern as well, but my PennSesign status is still waiting for review, Finger crossed. Btw, whens ur PennDesign interview?

Just received an email about my interview from MassArt on Friday. I am very thankful for this forum.

For what it's worth for you guys: a former student just received an acceptance from U. Tenn, in case anyone's been waiting on that one.  She also received a rejection from Carnegie Mellon--not sure exactly when that happened.

Still waiting on Columbia. Does everyone's slideroom still say Photography MFA?  I hear that the MFA goes away if you're rejected. 

[andandyanderson]

Just got a rejection by mail from University of Tennessee. Bummer, but hey, I don't have to move to Tennessee.

Yeah, it's really easy. It's in addition to FASFA. It took about 5-10 mins to complete.

Indeed – you'll need your 2015 tax return details handy to fill it out adequately, but otherwise, it's fairly fast. Had a small jump at first when I saw the email from Columbia in my inbox. 

PS – loving all the RPDR fans in here! Haha

My friend received a phone call today from Cranbrook metals asking her to come visit at the end of the month. When she asked if she could come in March (since it was such short notice) they said she could however it would be a lot longer wait to hear their admission decision!

[bunkerhill]

got an interview email from Cornell (came as a surprise since my application status still says incomplete)

[Poodle-Doodle]

I'm gonna be in Philly tomorrow, Waz good?

Hey Causofit,

You said you would have loved to have talked about your work.  What do you mean by that?  Did they not ask about your work, or do you just mean that you were nervous and cant remember what you discussed about it?  I have interviewed with programs that didn't ask about my work at all (instead were just general questions about other artists, books I read, etc,) and some that ONLY discuss your work, image by image.  Just curious what their interview process consisted of?  It can be tough to walk into an interview and have it go completely the opposite of other interviews you have done, in terms of their focus and style of questioning.

Lol yea! They asked about my work, but i was so nervous i couldnt articulate myself the way i wanted! ?

Hey said hi! And jumped into: tell us about yourself? They asked like 4 questions and then the mic was handed to me. I asked them questions about the facilities and studios and faculty visitis. 

Yea--- it was ?

Which medium did you applying for? Im praying for a response from painting 

[downtomars]

I've been quietly following this forum for a while, but finally decided to join today. I applied to Yale (got rejected), VCU, and Tyler. I saw someone got an interview for VCU a week or so ago, has anyone else heard from their painting department? Or Tyler (aside from the fact that apparently they're accepting only 5 applicants)?

@leekrasner I'm still waiting on Tyler too (sculpture). Seems like no one has heard anything from both painting and sculpture. 

[desertdog]

Did anyone apply to Rutgers painting and heard yet? Any word on NYU?

Oh, I see. Thank you for replying!

Again, Tyler Painting applicants should formally start hearing back 2nd and 3rd week of February. I was told that I was a painting finalist only after I emailed Tyler admissions about my painting application status. If you want to learn more about your own application status then I would recommend emailing Tyler like I did. Good luck!

Ahh, thank you Zander! And congratulations on your status as a finalist!!!
