I keep being rejected and am wondering if the fact that I am applying whilst completing my undergrad is working against me. Could this be a factor? Throughout my portfolio reviews, tours and meetings professors always asked when I graduated from undergrad (2015). Graduate programs want you to take time off to prove you can make your own work. Many people consider your undergraduate work and thesis as a product of your school. They want to see if you can produce work in the "real world" and what that work will look like. I bet your acceptance rate will be much higher in a few years. The most important thing is to just keep making work! Paintyface 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep being rejected and am wondering if the fact that I am applying whilst completing my undergrad is working against me. Could this be a factor? I applied in 2016 as I was graduating in April, and was summarily rejected from all but one of the schools I applied to. However, looking back on it, I was incredibly overworked from internships, part time job, thesis dissertation and school finals. I had an idea of what I wanted to pursue in grad school but to be honest, I am glad I took the time to really consider what direction I wanted to take and actually do it vs figuring it all out during grad school. With that said, I have enjoyed making art and writing without all of the background noise of undergrad commitments. Sure, I still have to work and such, but I am much more focused now and a much better candidate this year than I was two years ago. If grad school doesn't happen this year, know that if you keep pushing and keep working, next year you will be an even better candidate! Best of luck with your applications!

I have no idea what’s going on with Hunter. Some people have received rejections and others haven’t heard anything. It seems like they have a couple of rounds of rejections but I’m getting a little impatient...lol. I just want to know one way or the other! ?
