etsubrown8939 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 If you heard from SVA how did they contact you? If you heard from Pratt how did they contact you? I am on the west coast and waiting by my mailbox - still have 5 schools to hear from. ahhh. thanks for all your help! I got accepted to Pratt (Photo) via email about a week ago. I received a letter of acceptance from SVA (Photo, Video and Related Media) through snail mail. EVERYBODY, I know I already posted this but this is quite a lengthy forum, I am not bragging or anything.
caraa Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 got another rejection today via email from VCU Painting
allavita Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Just got into CalArts GD as well!! So far: Acceptances: CalArts CCA Interviews: Cranbrook SVA Pending: MICA RISD Crazy... can't wait to hear from the rest!
natalierachel Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 More surprises! I am accepted to Calarts GD (kewpies, congrats!) and NYU ITP through e-mail just now. I thought everyone needs to be interviewed for admission to ITP!?!? I'm as puzzled as I am thrilled now. Group interviews for ITP were suggested, but not mandatory- and they didn't specifically ask individuals to interview, it was a "rsvp if you can" thing. Congrats! Is it your top choice? If so, I'll see you there
atrawickb Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Just got into CalArts GD as well!! So far: Acceptances: CalArts CCA Interviews: Cranbrook SVA Pending: MICA RISD Crazy... can't wait to hear from the rest! obviously gd and painting/mixed media are totally different deals, but how are you leaning at this point between cca and calarts?
Upper Deck 01 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 got another rejection today via email from VCU Painting Was it an email that they sent out or did you email them?

Congrats! Is it your top choice? If so, I'll see you there CONGRATULATIONS!!! This is a tough choice. ITP gives me 15,000 scholarship. RISD's funding information won't come out until next week. I'm hoping their decision will make my decision easier.... Edited March 19, 2010 by Jestem

I'm hoping their decision will make my decision easier.... Ooooh, you're the one that got the scholarship! Congrats!! That's fantastic! I hope you take it.. but if not, you're welcome to suggest they pass it on to me

///// /// // / Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Hi everyone, could you please tell me which program is better? MFA in painting in Boston University or Massart? Do you know any stats for these two universities?How many applications they got and how many positions they give? Good luck! I live in Boston and did my undergrad at MassArt. Both programs are strong from what I've heard - The one main distinction I've heard is that BU is more "figurative", though I'm sure you'll find work of all types in both departments.
CSanta Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I got my acceptance letter from Pratt today via snail mail for MFA fine arts (painting) Question to all: I also was accepted to Otis MFA and now I'm not sure which program is better. Otis prgram is SMALL and the studios are super nice, I loved the faculty I met. Pratt is a bigger program, more faculty to potentially work with- smaller studios - I'm an abstract painter who is looking for a mix between theory and practice. Any body want to put in thier $.02? Thank you guys! I love this forum!
CSanta Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 No interview, just recieved a packet with acceptace letter in the mail.
ElizabethBrown Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Great. That means I still have a shot. Thanks so much CSanta.
allavita Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 obviously gd and painting/mixed media are totally different deals, but how are you leaning at this point between cca and calarts? Well.... If I had to choose at this very moment, I guess I would lean toward CalArts. There is a particular faculty member that I'm interested in studying with, and I feel more vested there bc I met with students and faculty in person during the interview process. The studio resources are also phenomenal across departments. Honestly though, I'm holding out for an answer from a school that hasn't released decisions yet, so I'm not extremely committed to either of these places. Sorry I can't be of more help!
allavita Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Hey! we're almost on the same boat! I'm waiting to hear back from the same 4 as well! Good luck!! keep us posted That's fabulous! If only they would hurry up....
CSanta Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Great. That means I still have a shot. Thanks so much CSanta. I'm in San Diego, so if you are in the west, you might be hearing today or Monday at the latest... Good luck to you ElizabethBrown!
Sara2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I live in Boston and did my undergrad at MassArt. Both programs are strong from what I've heard - The one main distinction I've heard is that BU is more "figurative", though I'm sure you'll find work of all types in both departments. Thank you very much for your help! My work is allegoric,but i am searching for the best education also. I am still wondering which is the the best school between the two of them.
