The Academy of Art University just called to tell me that I’ve been officially accepted into their glorious Graphic Design program for Fall ’08, complete with guaranteed on-campus housing and so forth. They said that the actual letter should be arriving any day now.

This is fantastic news! While AAU actually has open admissions for the college itself, some of the programs (Graphic Design definitely being one of them) are difficult to get into since they’ve only got so many seats as a result of strictly keeping their class sizes relatively small. In other words, I was sure to get into the school, but not necessarily into their much-desired Graphic Design program.

I have not yet decided what college I will be attending, but this is the first official acceptance from the two that I’ve narrowed it down to. The other school I’m waiting to hear from is the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Like I’ve said before, I’d be so happy to be able to go to either of these prestigious schools that basically, I’m not even going to worry anymore about which one I’d rather go to until I get accepted by SVA as well because I’m too busy feeling awesome right now. Obviously I’d love to be accepted by both, and I expect to be too, but the point is that I’ve already got one ticket to heaven here.

So in summary, I just got accepted into one of the two colleges on my “dream school” list. I’ll let you know when SVA gives me their verdict too.
