NCSU College of Design- Class of 2021

Hi guys! Has anyone received any indication of an interview? Anxiously waiting :confused:

I still havenā€™t received any notice. Iā€™m anxiously waiting, too. Looking back at other threads, Iā€™ve noticed that different applicants get invites at different times. Do you know the latest weā€™d hear? Also, if you donā€™t mind me asking, what major in the college did you apply for?

The impression I got was that we would most definitely know about an interview in December. However, theyā€™re kinda running out of time to let us know!! I applied to Graphic Design. What about you? @LooksLikeINeedHelp

Got my letter in the mail on the 24th! Postmarked the 22nd but I live very close. I applied to Graphic Design as well and have been invited to the interview.

Yay! Congrats!! I got mine yesterday as well, very excited!

Ya I heard at the same time for an interview. Did anyone get in without an interview? It seems like they did that the last couple years but maybe not this year. I havenā€™t seen anyone whoā€™s got in completely.

Hmmm, not sure. Stupid question but does the interview technically mean weā€™ve also already been accepted to NC State?

Iā€™m assuming so. Pretty positive it does, which is a pretty good achievement in itself I guess.

Sorry, but getting an interview does not mean admission into NCSU since it is dependent upon acceptance into the College. Hang in there! I remember the crazy stress of this.

Thanks for the help, but I think thatā€™s not really what weā€™re saying. We mean (or at least I mean) does getting an interview mean our academics are good enough to be accepted. If you donā€™t have good enough academics for NC State, then you wouldnā€™t be invited for an interview. Is that correct? Iā€™m talking more about the academic side of the admission.

Yes, from my understanding, the admissions department passes your application to the college of design after they determine if you can be admitted to NCSU itself first.

My daughter got a letter to attend an ā€œEventā€ on 1/21/17 at NCSU COD is that what you guys received also or does yours actually say you have an interview? NCSU is her number 1 choice and any help would be greatly appreciated.

What major in the school did she apply to? Mine has specific intructions about an interview and portfolio review. I applied to Graphic Design.

She applied for Architecture. What date is your interview?

Jan 21st. Iā€™m not qualified at all, but Architecture probably has a different way than us.

Thank you for answering my questions with what information you have. Good luck!!

Hope the interview went well!! Do you know about how many people interviewed for architecture? @Franklinmom

They did not do interviews, it was more of a informational event. There where about 50 potential students in our meeting. It felt like there was another going on besides the one we attended. How many interviewed for GD?

@Franklinmom
Oh, gotcha. I estimated there to be around 40 people for graphic design. 190 total were invited to the event.

@macer818 There was 50 in graphic design by the way. I would know, I was one of the last interviewed.
