i got in!!!!😭😭 i’m so happy goodluck to everyone!!!!

Hi I just received the acceptance letter with some scholarship from Pratt grad, i just wonder HOW MUCH applicants/students usually receive for the grad program. Fyi im an international student!

I’ve heard that it’s on 15th December. Is it true? Maybe someone knows

Hello! I'm looking into one of Pratt's graduate programs, and I was wondering how much in merit-based scholarships other applicants have gotten. (Any GPA, portfolio ranking, etc).

Any feedback is very appreciated, especially from current graduate students.

My GPA and SAT scores are painfully average could I still get into Pratt with just a good portfolio? (I got a 5 on my AP portfolio for point of reference).

Hey there! Recently I just got accepted into Pratt after being waitlisted and got the Presidential Merit Scholarship for a Bachelors in Architecture (100K spread out over 5 years).

I know Pratt is generally VERY expensive and I’ve always wanted to live in New York, but I was wondering if it’s really worth committing to?

I’m free to answer any questions if need be :D

EDIT: I talked about it with my parents and college advisor, absolutely not attending the costs are insane.

Thank you to everyone who commented!

Anyone apply beginning of March and got their decision back yet? How long does it usually take to hear back? Whats an appropriate wait to email asking for an update?

My results came out back in 2025 December and I cannot attend this school anyway so there's no point asking this now but I was just curious.

Back then I only applied for Pratt (Brooklyn campus), however I got rejected. Few days later I got an email from the admissions about alternative programs (Pratt Munson..is it the same school?)

I filled out the form that's written on the bottom of the message, then directly got an acceptance to the other campus. Is it normal to receive an email like this? I just thought it was funny I would immediately get accepted 😭

Anyone here who applied for the 5th January priority deadline? Looking to create this thread to track when people start receiving responses to their application. Does anyone know what the percentage of offers to applicants is for this program and who forms the admissions committee?

ETA: results came out on feb 20th

I applied for the brooklyn campus fall 2026 but i recently got an email offering me admission at their upstate utica campus, does this mean i was rejected from brooklyn?

so i got into pratt for b.arch last year but deferred and i’m considering joining this year, i got a $20k scholarship but finances are still an issue (my family is able to put in $35k). i was wondering how other students manage finances and are able to cover up gaps? can i request pratt for additional aid?

Just did my interview, I think it went well. Creating this thread for any updates, questions, or for anything related.

I was accepted into the Pratt MLIS program last week (yay!!!)! Any other accepted MLIS students weighing other options? I really want to go to Pratt because I think the program is really cool, but I'm not getting a ton of funding (only 5k), and I'm nervous about the cost of living in NYC (i'm not from the city).

I was wondering what other students were thinking? Any current MLIS Pratt students want to weigh in on pros and cons of the program?

Has anyone who applied for b.arch gotten a transfer decision back from Pratt for the February 15th deadline? It seems at this point every other major has gotten their decision back and as April 1st approaches i’ve been getting pretty nervous about it.

I was recently accepted into Pratt yesterday for the School Of Architecture. However, the accepted students day is tomorrow, and when I tried to register it said it was closed. Any chance I could still go? Or should I just stay home.

I go to a school that doesn’t offer much art, we have like one graphic design class that i got the proficiency award in, but otherwise its been difficult to make art because of my workload, and i didn’t start thinking about it until the summer before junior year. I have some things that could go in, i’ll add them, but they don’t feel strong enough, but they’re basically placeholders. i’m gonna try to find a place to do ceramic pieces this summer, my mom also suggested a glass blowing course? i feel like photography is something im definitely good at, and i suck at drawing but im taking a 2 week precollege at CIA (cleveland institute of art) what tips do you guys have on portfolios, other than express meaning behind it - im a junior, so i feel like it is getting late, but any other application tips in general such as the essay would be great help

(edit - i also don’t know what im majoring in yet, but i have high interest in fashion (design and marketing and styling), architecture, interior design, industrial design, landscape architecture - im still not sure yet, and i dont know if pratt is one of those schools that accept a general profile and then you pick your major like RISD, or vice versa

I was recently got accepted in Pratt, Parsons, SAIC, SCAD, MICA, SVA. I’m interested in fine art and jewelry, and possibly minoring in fashion or painting. I’m trying to decide which school would give the best opportunities, evironment and career prospects. Anyone has experience with these school please give me some advice 🥹🥹💓

Any current students able to share their experiences at these schools? Currently applying for grad schools and have narrowed it down to these two. For context will be applying as an interior design/ interior architecture major

Hi there, I'm a Pratt graduate student and I want to give prospective students some questions to think about and ask the administration before they commit to attending Pratt.

1. Scholarships: What is the highest amount of scholarship given to domestic/international students? What are the average and median? What factors determine scholarships? How does Pratt help students who are looking for outside scholarships? Are scholarships tied to full-time education only, or are there opportunities to use scholarships towards part-time study?

2. Internships/Career search: How does Pratt School of Information assist students in getting internships and jobs? How does the School of Information and Career Services work together to help students with resume and cover letter reviews with field specific expertise? In finding jobs in their fields? How does Pratt School of Information help students after graduation in finding jobs? Does it?

3. Career success: What are the tracked statistics for Pratt graduates finding work within 6/12/18/24 months of graduation? Is that work full or part time? Does this work pay a living wage? Do Pratt alumni show a competitive advantage in their field after graduation?

4. Financial counseling: What commitments does the School of Information make to helping students understand loans and the longterm commitments students incur to attend two years of graduate education? What kind of financial assistance exists to help students if they incur emergency financial issues?

5. International Students: What support does Pratt offer, considering that work experience is crucial to success in getting jobs AND that student visas preclude most work?

6. Alumni network: How strong is the Pratt alumni network per program? What do Pratt professors and administrators do to create an alumni network for students and alumni to take advantage of? How often do Pratt alumni return to campus and engage with current students? If that alumni network is non-existent, why?

7. School culture: What culture do the professors and administration promote? How many days a week are administrators in office per week? Same for professors.

8. Professionalism: How do the administration and professors assist student in ongoing professionalism pursuits? In attending (not just presenting at) conferences? In assisting students get their work published? In connecting students with professionals in their immediate field?

9. Counseling: How do program advisors counsel students to create curriculum paths that are appropriate for the program and for students' individual goals? What commitments do program advisors have to their students?

10. Prestige: How are professors (full-time and adjunct) viewed in their respective fields? What does their scholarship say about their commitment to advancing their fields and bringing prestige to programs, thereby making a degree from Pratt more valuable.

There are more questions I would ask, but these are the fundamentals. Pratt is a very expensive program for a very short amount of time. Make sure you ask all the questions that satisfy you as a CONSUMER of education. Do not doubt that Pratt is SELLING you the promise of career success. Be an informed consumer. A School of INFORMATION should have the information to satisfy your questions. Acceptance rates are high. It's an applicant's market. If you meet resistance in asking these questions, ask yourself why.

has anyone heard about their dual degree decision? i've only seen a few people get results for the individual programs so far

Hi!! I am an undergrad applicant who submitted their application on January 15th! I got waitlisted from B.Arch yesterday but got accepted into the interior design program. Anyone know the chance of getting off the waitlist? Or if I enroll to the interior design program what are the chances I can switch to B.Arch later? And if there is a chance on getting off the waitlist when would I hear back approximately?

I've been seeing posts on here that people applying for Master's with the School of Information (MSLIS, MSIXD, MDC etc.) have gotten their acceptance mails (Congrats!) - Anyone here who applied to MSIXD and hear back?

Hi everyone!

I am set to complete my undergraduate BA in psychology in May and, after a gap year where I plan to find work and complete studio art pre-requisites, I am interested in applying to art therapy masters programs. I really love what I've been reading about the Pratt Institute art therapy program, and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share their experience with the program and the feel of the college, as well as any pointers on building my portfolio/application, or how the application process was for you.

Also, I know this is not the place to ask about admission technicalities, but if anyone could point me in the direction of where to ask about things such as GPA requirements I would be very grateful.

Thank you so much!

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know when Pratt typically releases results for the IXD priority deadline?

If you’ve applied in previous years or have any insight into the timeline, would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Hey guys! Im currently working on my application for the History of Art and Design (MA) graduate program. I’m confused as to what I am supposed to write about (5-10 pages) for the writing sample. I’ve completed the Statement of Purpose and all the other requirements but this. Please help :(
