<p>Hi there,</p>

<p>I am not sure if I post in the wrong room but this room is most likely suit my question =)</p>

<p>I am the international student applying for master degree in Graphic design program.
Few days ago, I got a letter from Pratt that I got accepted to their M.S. communication design program. </p>

<p>Anyway, I also got a email from Cranbrook academy of art saying that I was selected as a finalist for possible inclusion in autumn 2009 studio. They said that they would like to invite me to interview. As a foreigner, I would have to make it on conference call.</p>

<p>So, my question would be how many chances I have for got accepted? My friend said that they may already accept me but they just want to know my attitude and make sure I am not crazy (..haha) but the other say that it may be the another stage of application process (may be 50 candidate to interview and choose only 14 student).</p>

<p>Anyone who got into cranbrook might help me out on this?
Or anyone who has any clue on interview process? I google about how student interview like but mostly, I found the information on MBA, business school interview. Not many interview for art school.</p>

<p>Also, is Cranbrook a good art school? Not many people talk about this school. I have apply for graduate program at MICA, SVA, CCA but yet, still no reply from them. Got only Yale (not accepted), SAIC (not accepted), Cranbrook (finalist to interview), Pratt (accepted)</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!!!</p>

<p>The Masters program at Cranbrook has an excellent reputation. A number of relevant and well-respect graphic design educators graduated from Cranbrook - Jeff Keedy, Lorraine Wilde, and Ed Fella all at Cal Arts for example.</p>

<p>Thank you for your information, RainingAgain.</p>

<p>Anyway, I am starting to get anxious because I still don’t get notification from other universities yet (beside yale, SAIC, cranbrook, Pratt). </p>

<p>Anyone who apply on Master degree got the result yet??</p>

<p>Also, if anyone could answer my above question about cranbrook interview?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I live near Cranbrook, and it doesn’t seem like a huge grad program to me. It’s very VERY reputable (just look at who founded it!) so that might mean it’s very competitive, or that the application pool is smaller.</p>
