Has anyone received their admissions letter from CalArts yet?

I’m definitely being impatient, but I wanted to know if anyone has received their letter yet. I also wanted to ask if applying by their preferred deadline (December 1st) makes any difference on when you receive your decision?

UPDATE: I got my acceptance letter today! :smiley:

Congrats! Was this for Acting? Also, does the decision come through the applicant status portal or through VIP Page? Thank you! Again, CONGRATS!

No I applied for the Film/Video BFA, and I’ve heard a lot of Experimental Animation decisions came out today as well. I think they must be doing the Film department right now? but idk. Yes the decisions come through the application portal! They’ll email you an “application update”, just follow the link they send you and go to your application. then you can view your decision! GOOD LUCK!!! Wishing you the best :slight_smile:

applied for that and nowid you hear anything about character animation yet? My D has not heard yet.

Sorry- my computer glitched- has anyone heard from character animation department yet? My D is waiting on her letter…

have not heard about any character animation admissions yet! i’ll make sure to let you know if I hear anything

Has anyone heard from BFA-Acting admissions?

I’m experimental animation and haven’t gotten a decision yet - maybe they are rolling out in waves.

We are waiting to hear for BFA Acting still.

Still waiting- do you know if their acceptance and rejections come at the same time?

I emailed the admissions office and this is what they said

“Thank you for reaching out to us. The notification period for the admission decision will be approximately March 1 through early April for students that applied by the regular deadline. There may be cases, however, where the decision will come earlier or take longer. We send decision letters out at different times, depending on each program’s review schedule and when required materials for the student’s file are received. There is no significance attached to receiving your notification earlier or later than other students that have applied.”

Good to know, thanks @ketchupsupreme !

Still waiting for BFA Acting as well!

still waiting for BFA film & video

Anyone hear from CalArts BFA Acting?

We’re still waiting on BFA Acting

Still haven’t heard about BFA acting decision. Is this normal? I know some have already received acceptance letters for acting.

They are taking forever! I’m losing interest in them being iv’e already gotten in a few programs

The website says through April 1st so that means we should know about BFA acting we’d this coming Wednesday
