booksandprints Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Hi all, I've not seen much (or any) mention of the schools I applied to, so I was wondering if anyone had heard any news from these schools: UGA UNC Chapel Hill UC Boulder U Oregon UMN Twin Cities I also applied to Tulane and UN Lincoln, but as their deadlines are later I'm not quite as anxious about those yet. I was notified last year of being waitlisted at UGA on 1/31, so my stomach is in knots having not heard anything from them by this point Also, I am applying in printmaking - it seems my field is underrepresented on this thread!

There is nothing wrong with this work, it's rude to post links to others work and criticize it because it's not your aesthetic. It sucks to not get an interview, but you don't need to drag others in the process. Edited February 2, 2018 by OldMFA peachgray, dsgnvee and let_me_in 2 1

Maybe you can learn something from these peers if you get into the program. Agreed that giving specific examples is not the kindest - it is hard to articulate points without doing so sometimes. My point is that Yale doesn't seem to be the institution it was 10 years ago.

hoax Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I got the interview invite from Yale! A friendly message to haters and the rejected- yes, Yale is not everything. Best of luck to everyone! oneteardrop, OldMFA, zelle and 4 others 5 2
Tomcat Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 also got a yale interview for sculpture p in shock and also is it true the expect completely new work? has anyone done it before? help what do i do let_me_in 1
mentius Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 congrats to everyone on their interviews! Is anyone else traveling to interviews with large paintings? It will be too costly to ship or fly with them stretched so I'm debating rolling them up. I'm just worried about how I'll show them unstretched... cklos 1
Paintyface Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Some people just take rejection harder than others and need an outlet. I'd love to go to Yale but hopefully another school will work out. I think everything happens for a reason -- in the very least to keep us humble but in the most because a better path is out there. Trying to stay positive Sylvieee and cklos 2
Makerak Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I doubt ucla is coming out tonight. Its 4pm in Cali already on a friday night

Makerak Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 I would love to apply to Yale if they had my major. Baffles me why they don't have any new media as "Area of Study"
ChrisPW Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 I haven't posted on here in a while, but I realized earlier today this was probably the night Yale interview decisions would be sent out. I applied last year and got rejected; that weekend was a total bummer, but in the subsequent weeks as I began producing new work I became really excited about the direction it was going in, and over the last year I feel my work was matured and progressed exponentially. I didn't apply this year but very likely will next year, but I wanted to write this post in case anyone here is feeling bummed out from a rejection to let them know that this feeling will pass, and please keep up the hard work. P.S., congrats to the users on here who've landed interviews thus far! hdart, zelle, Positive Vibes and 1 other 3 1
