Has anyone received their admissions letter from CalArts yet?

I got my decision for animation at about 9:30 pm ET last night (denial). They did not send an email, I logged into the portal and it was there. I had logged in at around 9:15 previously and nothing was there, so I’m certain the notification popped up somewhere in that timeframe, FYI.

Should we assume at this point that it is a rejection?? Does anyone know anyone from past years that was accepted this late?

Also I know many acceptances went out at the beginning of the month, has anyone heard of anyone getting REJECTED though?

I really hope that it doesn’t mean rejection! Hopefully we’ll know by the end of this week, by April 1st or 3rd

It would be pretty messed up if they waited this long to reject us!

Does anyone know how many acceptances they sent out? Because I doubt they would wait this long to reject the rest of us for acting

Received my letter today 5:22pm : waitlisted

For which program?

acting BFA

Thanks. Hopefully I’ll hear something soon.

I called and they said they’re wrapping up everything and plan to have them out by the first week and a half of April, she said there is no specific date though.

Did you get a status update email?

Yes I did

received ours around 12:45 PST … rejection. good luck to everyone waiting to hear! hoping for the best for all of you!

Rejected!

Hi, you probably won’t see this but do you remember when in March you heard? Was it a letter in the mail not a email?

woohoo!! Congratulations! They tend to release in batches based on program. We are waiting for BFA Acting. Praying ours gets released soon! The anticipation is killing us. Was it a portal update notification?

Congrats! My daughter got her acceptance to VoiceArts, but was also interested in performer-composer. We are visiting campus the week after next. She has it narrowed down to 3 schools.
