monkey_tacos Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi everyone. I've been watching this thread for awhile. Here's what I have so far. Accepted: SAIC (Performance) - post UIC (Moving Image) - email Rejected: Yale (Sculpture) - email directing me to a status update on their website UCSD - email Interviews: Columbia (New Genres) - email No Word: UCLA (Interdisciplinary) USC CalArts (Film and Video) - I actually did hear from them. They gave me a call asking me to clarify the collaboration on one of the pieces in my portfolio. Very strange phone call that I completely bumbled through.

sophiab Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I wrote back to ask about my CCA admission status. The associate professor said that she thinks I'll be admitted and that I'm considered for scholarship! YEAH~ that's awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandini Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Interviews: Columbia (New Genres) - email Congrats - when did you get this e-mail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbadger Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 ok finally! an acceptance! I emailed the assistant at Florida State University to ask when we would receive information about decisions, and she said that I was accepted and the MFA director would be contacting me for further details. I can finally chill out now that I have at least one acceptance. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandini Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 just yesterday, 3/3. they're interested in interviewing on the 7th or 8th of april. Thanks - good luck! I guess that's no Columbia for me then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnip Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Thanks - good luck! I guess that's no Columbia for me then. Same fate for me, I think. I am still waiting on one more school (VCU) but am just planning to reapply next year regardless of what their answer is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghu112 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 First of all, I would like to say that this forum is great. Thanks to whoever started this post. I am still waiting to hear back from Columbia University regarding an interview. I applied to their MFA Visual Art program (photography). Since I haven't heard back by now, does that mean that I am not getting an interview? If it's not meant it's not meant. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatima Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 hey, thought i would add my status to the pool: accepted: uchicago (interdisciplinary) -- 1/2 tuition scholarship pafa (interdisciplinary) -- full tuition scholarship interviews: risd (painting) -- in person, 3/23 rejected: yale (painting) -- email no word: ucla (interdisciplinary) mica (mount royal school) ucla (interdisciplinary) university of washington seattle (painting) pnca (visual studies) hunter (painting) tyler (painting) northwestern (interdisciplinary) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathancotephoto Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I had a good interview with UNLV. Sounds like a great program. They only have two spots available for photographers and Im one of four candidates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackblack Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) First of all, I would like to say that this forum is great. Thanks to whoever started this post. I am still waiting to hear back from Columbia University regarding an interview. I applied to their MFA Visual Art program (photography). Since I haven't heard back by now, does that mean that I am not getting an interview? If it's not meant it's not meant. Thanks! I wouldn't assume that at all. It seems there is no consistency between departments with confirmations. I assumed I hadn't gotten into a couple schools based on dates from last year rej/accepts, and others who have discussed their status from the same school but another dept. Then columbia's sculpture program emailed for an interview 2 days ago.... Edited March 5, 2010 by blackblack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlenova Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 @nathancotephoto: Thems are some good odds!!! Woohoo! I bet you are excited. I wish I had those odds. And on that note. Why do I have this feeling that if I don't get into MICA, I will grow deeply dissatisfied with the schools that did offer me admission. After tasting champagne, I don't if I am as excited about having Dr. Pepper if you dig....hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatima Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Congrats on RISD Interview. Im curious, did they email you, send a letter or call you ? RISD sent me an email on Feb. 26th. I think there are 10 spots for the painting program? I got the impression that the interviews are in person to ensure that the applicant is willing to travel out there, and that they still in the process of choosing finalists.

lazycatfish Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 In regard to Painting RISD Interview was an email, and I am on the 24th of March in the morning. I got a letter in the mail restating this yesterday. I have pretty reliable inside contact at Columbia that says they just finished two days ago from yesterday reviewing everyone. It would mean that you would hear, likely by phone, yesterday, today at the latest. I am guessing in regards to the timing of notification. I was told about the two day ago review from someone on the inside. I am also curious about the UT Austin folks out there, I am wait-listed so its AGONY. Did anyone get in? Please go to Yale instead! I have an interview with Hunter on the 20th of March, so you are likely to have heard from them by now about this. I got a phone call followed two days later by a confirmation email. hope it helps... Anyone got any news about Javits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alizarin Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I haven't seen anyone on this message board yet say anything either way about UCLA - no need to throw your hopes away on that one yet, Alizarin! I'm so jealous/happy for you about your RISD interview! That's so rad! Congrats! You'll do just fine - just relax and be yourself. Honesty is always the best policy. I'm excited about SFAI - I originally moved from Pennsylvania to Portland about 4 and a half years ago. I'm not sure I could see myself on the east coast again so I'm happy to have SFAI as a possibility. San Fran would be fantastic! Here's to hoping, for both of us!! Thanks Michelle SF is a nice city, I love living here. But I'm curious about the east coast too. Good luck to all of us. I wonder, is anybody here from the west coast interviewing at RISD? Also, did anyone else apply to SAIC printmedia? And have you heard anything?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbletea Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Hi All, Has anyone heard from Parsons MFA Photography for an interview? I've been invited to interview at Hunter on the 20th and NYU Steinhardt on the 24th, but all I want is Parsons!!! Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Got a rejection from Cranbrook today - short and to the point. Oh well. I knew it was a long shot. Still waiting on: RISD UW LSU CCA Alfred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
