Yes I did but it is my first choice and it is the most convenient in many ways so I'm really counting on it... ugh It's crazy to think that I might have to wait until April 1 !! I'm unproductive and stressed all the time.
Literally just got the call from SCI-Arc admissions to notify me of my acceptance, with the official package to be mailed out tomorrow. So thrilled!

There is no advanced standing in MArch I at Sci-Arc last time I checked...

I discussed this with the admissions office earlier on - it depends on the student, and if you have a pre professional degree, as I do. I tried to apply to MArch II, but they said I should apply for MArch I and they could give me advanced standing/excuse me from certain classes
Did anyone receive mostly rejections? To my surprise, I was only admitted to my "safe" schools. I guess I wasn't as strong of an applicant that I thought.

For sure! I really wanna go to GSD, but i can't afford it. They called me and told me they are open for negociation. Rice offered me full tuition, but I don't like their program. So for now, I'll go to the GSD open house and try to negociate, if I don't get to a good deal, I'll end up at Rice.

I just applied to MIT, Columbia, Princeton, AA and Bartlett. Rejected at MIT , waitlisted at Princeton and still waiting from Bartlett. Just curious, how is your professional backgrounds? Maybe I should work for a year than apply again to MIT.

How do you plan on negotiation, you obviously have a full ride from another school to wager, but what is your approach
?

They called me and told me they would find for me to go there if I really wanted to go. Maybe this way is cheap loan, which i wouldn't accept. I interned in 4 offices during undergraduate years and one of them was Machado and Silvetti Associates, really well know in the east cost.The other ones were in Brazil.

I am international, my government has special scholarships for MIT students. Columbia doesnt give any aid for int., AA (drl) will announce its bursary at the end of March. Idk if Princeton gives any scholarships for waitlisted students, still I can try to negotiate. I am recent graduate actually and attended so many short courses and workshops in AA and Bartlett while studying undergrad. I will have an internship for the next three months in Spain in a quite known firm. I have job opportunities in my country but I want to live in US or in UK. MIT was my first choice and I am a bit disappointed. So very confused right now...

Congrats! If you don't mind, who did call from GSD?
Has anyone heard from Berkeley? I received a "Brief admittance notification" on March 8th but nothing ever since, they were supposed to send official email on Monday 13th but I haven´t got anything yet.
Finally got the call from SCI-Arc. They let me know they'll be sending out official acceptance letters and other documentation sometime over the next week.
Also, the mail saying, 'We have recommended to you to ABC SupraStudio...' is a confirmed yet unofficial acceptance is it?

I watched a web seminar with one of the professors and they said that its pretty much guaranteed that your accepted if they recommend you. I think its more formality than anything.
Seems sci-arc is pretty easy to get into with all these posts. Are they in desperate need for more benjamins?

I'm evidently uninformed about the ongoings of institute fundings, so why doesn't sci-arc follow suit and adopt the means of traditional tertiary institutes?

May I ask what you are basing this on? If you see accepted students post a lot, then it's easy to get into?
Hi,I would like your advice and opinions on which college to opt for M.arch II.I got accepted in Yale,Cornell and SCI-ARC..But now I am in a fix as to which one to finalise.please help

Denied at MIT. Very disappointing!
likewise :( the long wait just made rejection hurt more tbh
Me too :( it did ^
Same, just curious about their expectation...

Wait list = Rejection ?
I have been waitlisted at 2 schools, and i am considering them as rejections. How do they normally work out?
Wanna know as well. Also no chance of getting scholarships yea?
I was on waitlist for Princeton and 2 days ago got accepted with Princeton Graduate Fellowship + Stipend.
When is everyone planning to begin negotiating financial aid? Is the best plan to ask as soon as possible?
wondering the same thing....
wondering if it's better to negotiate through email or at open house
where should I negotiate financial aid with? admission office? m.arch department? financial aid office?
same question.
I'm thinking through the department? On my scholarship offer is says, "USC School of Architecture Scholarship" So I assume through them
Finally got the call from SCI-Arc. They let me know they'll be sending out official acceptance letters and other documentation sometime over the next week.
Looking for M.Arch/MUP for Fall 2017. Following are the acceptances to both programs.
SUNY Buffalo (Concurrent) - Scholarship of $5000 combined. Can apply for Assistantship.
UW Milwaukee (Concurrent) - Applied for Assistantship and Scholarship. Will know by Mid-April.
UIUC (Joint) - No funding from Planning. Applied for Scholarship, Fellowship and Assistantship with Architecture.
Is UIUC the choice by default? Any idea what the prospects are of funding and employment on campus?
Any international student heard back from University of Toronto? The wait is too long!
Has anyone heard back from UCLA Suprastudio?
Also, the mail saying, 'We have recommended to you to ABC SupraStudio...' is a confirmed yet unofficial acceptance is it?
I watched a web seminar with one of the professors and they said that its pretty much guaranteed that your accepted if they recommend you. I think its more formality than anything.
Thank you mattgehm!
Anyone heard a thing from Calgary? Really desperate :(
Deciding between
Sci-Arc MArch II
PennDesign AAD
AA DRL
I am pursuing digital architecture, and all of these institutions are great...
Any advice is appreciated.
