<p>K= thousand. So 13K is 13,000 dollars :D</p>
<p>I also got a 10K scholarship from Pratt...but I feel like I wouldn't even go there on a full ride (unless I was rejected everywhere else) :P</p>
<p>Pratt just doesn't appeal to me that much. ^^;</p>
<p>congrats on all who was accpeted!!!!!!</p>
<p>yep, i agree. temptations. and true it dose cost a lot. i got accpeted into pratt too with 10K each year i attent. it is a huge lot off of parents backs. i was wait-listed by Parsons too. which was my first choice. </p>
<p>It's werid almost that Pratt has a lower accptence rate than Parsons and accpet way less student for fashion and yet....i dont even know now. confusing...</p>
<p>BUT! think about this! you can always transfer into Parsons after your first year. you have to look at some numbers. parson accpeted a large percent of transfer student. here are some numbers from college board. </p>
<p>Total number of transfer students who applied: 1,984
Total number of transfer students who were admitted: 1,242 </p>
<p>This is what i'm planning. go to Pratt or Otis and applied again!
excpet i'm confused at which one to go now. any one you can gave me some comments, <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/arts-majors/485117-pratt-otis-i-have-got-accepted-both-huge-scholarship.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/arts-majors/485117-pratt-otis-i-have-got-accepted-both-huge-scholarship.html</a><br>
much thanks!</p>
<p>Pratt is a really good school too. so even better chance.</p>
<p>and i just checked, both Otis and Pratt has additing rate of 42% and Parsons this year 50%. werid....</p>
<p>Thank you, Odyism! I suspected that it might equate to 'thousand', but I thought it better safe than sorry, haha.</p>
<p>Shuya, maybe you should visit Otis (on the off chance that you haven't) and see if you like it. I don't like the campus at all, but perhaps you will. Personally, I would go to Pratt just because NYC is supposedly the "it" place to be when pursuing fashion. I also think it would be a great experience to live in a place other than the West Coast; expand my horizons!</p>
<p>It's definitely difficult to make a decision which could alter the rest of your life. Good luck to everyone</p>
<p>Argh I STILL haven't heard from Pratt!!! a;dkfjapoeijf;a</p>
<p>Congratulations to you all though! And Kalonity 13k is their highest scholarship (for non-arch majors) so that's definitely something to be proud of. :)</p>
<p>:) thanks for letting me know caressemh...I did not know that!</p>
<p>in any case, yeah...schools. I am kind of getting anxious (not because I want to go so much as I just want my letters :P) as almost everyone has gotten their Parsons letters + my friend just got into Lang yesterday. So what's up with the Parsons/Lang program? I think I'll call them tomorrow.</p>
<p>Acceptance rates were really weird/low this year. RISD's was under 30% apparently.</p>
<p>Yeah architecture majors can get up to $15,000 (what's so special about them??? :P) and everyone else, up to $13,000. I wished they offered the opportunity for more scholarships too.</p>
<p>Well, I don't know how long it takes but for instance, I have a friend who applied to Berklee College Of Music in december and he only got his answer about a week ago</p>

<p>Thanks! well, I'm going to NYC for sure for my future. but, i also want to expeneince the difference between two of the top fashion captiols. i mean, Otis is the best of the west and Parsons, of crouse the best of the East. So, hopefully i will expenice both places. I will transfer after my first year for sure.</p>
<p>I still haven't heard from RISD or Pratt, but congrats to all who are in.
I hope to hear tomorrow. If not, I may just go insane.</p>
<p>My D heard from Pratt on Monday (3/31) she's in with max presidential merit scholarship !<br>
Good luck to all those still waiting</p>
<p>I feel the same way about RISD; it's really grating on my nerves. Good luck to both of you, reptarmania & caressemh</p>
<p>ARGH
so I called the new school today- Parsons hung up on me, and Lang told me they never received my test scores.

<p>I'm ridiculously **<em>ed because my SATs would actually make a huge difference, but it's too late to send now. Oh, and at first they were like, you're not in our database....</em>five minutes later oh nevermind we found you. x_x</p>
<p>For anyone who hasn't gotten a response from Parsons, I would email/call to find out, because chances are they lost something of yours and never bothered to let you freaking know.</p>
<p>Kalonity, that's very rude of Parsons! Lang should've mailed or emailed you a reminder!!!! So it's not even your fault or anything >:O!!! Ugh. Is it really too late to send your scores? Because I'm sure your SATs would've made a big difference.</p>
<p>Thank you for the support freakyne55...
I got rejected from Pratt today, which sucks because I really thought I'd be accepted.
High hopes for RISD, but I don't think it'll happen.</p>
<p>kalonity, I agree with lolita! Is there any way to resolve this? They have an online system where you can check the status of your application; if they didn't mail you information regarding it, then inform them of that error & see if you can get an extension. I had difficulty in sending my transcript to them too, and it wasn't until my fourth attempt when I hand-mailed it that they finally received it. I don't know why it's so difficult for Parsons to receive mail, but definitely try to see if you can sort it out! Good luck!</p>
<p>reptarmania, I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you the best of luck for RISD.</p>
<p>For everyone waiting on RISD, I called RISD today and they told me that they mailed all the letters on Tuesday, so we should all be receiving it soon.</p>
<p>Hopefully tomorrow! I'm going insane about it.
Here's some work from my portfolio if anyone's curious, comments and suggestions are very welcome and appreciated:</p>

<p>Good luck you guys!!! I didn't get my packet yet but I emailed the admissions counselor because I'm out of town for a week....and I got in!! :)</p>
<p>FINALLY I got the letter from Pratt! The final college I applied to. I got the presidential scholarship, too! Unfortunately it's still too expensive for me but thats okay because I want to go to MICA more, anyway. Congrats to everyone who got into their schools and good luck to those still waiting!</p>
<p>congrats Lolita! And good luck to everyone else! Ahh art school, so exciting...I'm the only one from my school going so I love seeing all you guys post.</p>
<p>anyway, yeah the thing with Parsons....whatever. RISD just told me they have no financial aid appeal process anyway, so however much $ Parsons might have given me (the only reason I cared so much) wouldn't have helped in an appeal/negotiation anyway. </p>
<p>soo nervous for my risd fin aid letter though! I had a dream last night that it came :P how dorky is that.</p>
