I got a rejection email from UCLA. Its says something like "click on this link to see the status of your application"

Good luck to you too!!!

I got a letter saying that I have been listed as an "Alternate" for my school today... I guess that is good news. Now I am having to wait till someone says "no" to the program! Arghhh... the agony of waiting....

Posted

Nope.

Received my acceptance letter March 3rd, and haven't heard a peep since! :blink:

Yeah I got mine on the 4th, but there is not way I can afford to go without funding. I hope we hear soon?

I received my acceptance letter from SVA this past Friday (3/12). Did you apply to the Photography,Video and Related Media program?

I applied to the Fine Arts MFA...so that might be an entirely different situation and application process. Still very weird that they didn't interview. Super easy for you...so CONGRATS!

Now I'm totally bummed to find out that people applying to MICA for Graphic Design have been getting interviews. I haven't heard anything from them and that was my first choice. :(

Posted

Update:

Got 2 rejection letters today, one from Tyler, the other from Stanford, so this is how I stand:

Univ or Cincinnati: In with dinero

Alfred: Alternate

Tyler, Stanford, Yale: Rejected

USC and VCU: Still waiting, but doesn't look good.

I am still waiting to hear from Tyler, I applied for their photography program...

Another Update:

Well, my results are kind of embarrassing, but part of the benefit of this forum is to let others know what's going on.

1 Interview:

New York Studio School: (scheduled for 4/1)

...feeling hopeful because, aside from being the only positive reply so far, I think this may truly be the best place for me and my work.

5 Rejections So Far:

Yale: (2/8 online system)

SAIC: (3/1 letter)

NYU: (3/5 letter)

MassArt: (3/10 letter)

Purchase College: (3/13 letter)

Haven't heard from:

Hunter

Columbia

SVA

SMFA

MichaelW, Was that your choice school? Congrats!!

One of my top three. I really wanted Carnegie Mellon the most, but it wasnt reciprocal.

I am based out of California so this might be the reason but I have not heard ANYTHING from a ton of the schools people have heard back from. No rejection, No acceptance, NOTHING AT ALL.

I got an interview at Yale via email but everything else seems to be MIA.

Any thoughts as to why this is the case? I am anxious and completely confused.

No Word:

RISD

MICA

Pratt

SVA

NYU

Columbia

any ideas would really help.

I started to wonder about CalArts since I'd interviewed with them a few weeks ago and haven't heard anything, so I went ahead and emailed them this morning and they got right back to me:

Accepted to the Art & Technology MFA program.

For other admits to CalArts: how long did it take to get your funding info? Does it come with the acceptance letter?

Posted

When you email these schools to check up, what do you say?

I would love to check on a few schools but I don't want to be pushy.

help?

I called UCLA yesterday and they said that they were going to be announcing next week at some point. I know people have received rejection emails.

Thank you! Graduate program coordinator sent me an email, saying an official letter is on the way. 350 people applied, 7 are admitted to 2 yr program. Best of luck to you on your applications!

Did they interview people? Did anyone get an interview? Why would they email some and not others... weird...

Well, my last interview is with Yale in late March. If I get in both, I'll decide between the two. Both are my number one choices.

Still nothing from NYU ITP, I think it's not going well for me. I haven't even got an interview! But, hey! You've already got in MIT! It's gotta be your pick, right?
