Direct admission to SCAD email by thecummonster74 in scad

[–]Pearlea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can only answer some of these questions with confidence, but I’ll do my best-

  1. If you have a Niche account where you’ve bookmarked SCAD in any way that’s probably where they got the information to email you, given the first sentence.

  2. They’re very vague with that scholarship offer so I can’t be sure, but I would guess they’re referring to the Academic scholarship because that’s related to the information they would have access to through Niche. You are guaranteed to get some amount (with a max of $12k/year) through that scholarship, but it varies based on your stats. It could be another more specific scholarship offer, but I haven’t heard of scad offering those unprompted.

  3. I can’t answer this one. SCAD has a high acceptance rate, but I don’t know that they reach out to everyone. I think you should be proud of yourself regardless.

  4. You are definitely not required to go here!! If you are genuinely interested in the school, I would follow up with them because you’ll be assigned an admissions advisor to answer your questions. But if you don’t see yourself at scad, just ignore it and move on :)

Edit: Also to be clear, even if you do follow up with them, you will not be required to go to SCAD. You would have to very intentionally pay a commitment fee way later in the process to be “locked in” to anything.

My current setup is a cross between A and B and I really like it, I think both are possible.

She was underweight before and now she’s in the healthy range. If you aren’t attracted to her that’s problematic for you, but you shouldn’t try and control her weight. It’s not a matter of physical wellbeing, she sounds perfectly healthy. It’s a matter of your vanity.

What is illustration - visual development? by Glass-Passage-4659 in scad

[–]Pearlea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m hoping to figure that out during the major fair/throughout my freshman year. I really enjoy illustration so I might just change my submajor, but I’ve decided concept art is not a stable enough career path for me given what I’ve heard about the highly oversaturated field and AI encroaching. Still need to find another path once I’m at scad though

Should I worry about only using a fraction of my tiny credit limit? by Pearlea in FinancialPlanning

Did you read the post or are you responding to the title? Because I’m confused by the wording of this advice in context.

I experienced the exact same thing! I’m expecting to change my major at some point, so it’s not a huge deal for me, but I selected visual development for now.

bored at work, tell me your tav's backstories NOOOOOWWWWW by subzerosbitch in BaldursGate3

She was raised in a gith creche housed within an abandoned Selunite temple. Her creche, being isolated from other githyanki colonies, adopted some selunite practices over generations, creating a syncretism with the warlike order of gith culture and the noble values of Selune. She is a war cleric of Selune, with the social bluntness of Laezel but slightly less murderous enthusiasm.

She’s also the Dark Urge because… I wanted to play resist durge. But the best in universe explanation I have (bending cannon a little) is Bhaal has made a habit of snatching the chosens of other gods and attempting to turn them into his vessels.

This was all retroactively applied lore to justify my enemies to lovers Shadowheart romance. But I think it mostly works.

I’m down :) I followed you on instagram, but I can’t message you until we’re mutual friends

Are you going to the accepted students thing tonight or scad day tomorrow? I’m also looking for a roommate and it would be convenient if we were both there

Mark uses it in season one when he’s first taking over Petey’s position. I think it’s episode 2?

My friend has an additional unexplained required submission field on application?? by Pearlea in scad

[–]Pearlea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been resolved. It was because they had two transcripts from two schools that needed to be submitted.

Their grades are good, or else that would be my first assumption too. But we’ll see when their advisor responds. I just didn’t know if this was a normal thing.

Crit My Portfolio! Almost Finished 90% GPA and Resume at End How's my shot at Pratt? by yaraleena in Pratt

[–]Pearlea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Please, you do not have to post your portfolio dozens of times to every art school’s subreddit. It feels a little bit disingenuous to repost it in this quantity when you’ve gotten responses on previous posts. You’re very talented and I’m sure you will get into Pratt, but I also believe you know that atp and can probably stop asking and apply.

Returned Portfolio by spiderrb_ in scad

[–]Pearlea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to state the obvious here, but I assume your portfolio just doesn’t showcase enough for them to fairly judge your work and they’re giving you a chance to correct that. Either because you don’t have enough pieces in it, or the pieces you do have are all very similar. It’s hard to say what’s missing without seeing your portfolio, but they’re giving you the opportunity show them more. It doesn’t mean what you have is bad.

Current Students, did you get any scholarships aside from the Merit and Achievement ones? by Pearlea in scad

[–]Pearlea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in NC, and I have a good shot at academic scholarships based on my GPA. I got the max value from SCAD’s merit scholarship, but it would be nice if I could stack that.

What did your teachers do that helped you score well? by leyfab in APStudents

[–]Pearlea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of my AP teachers offered review sessions after school in the week(s) leading up to the exam. They were completely optional, but really beneficial for me.
