Hello Marica.

I have been excepted and am now onto the financial interview. Hope to see both of you in September.

Hi Gidget!

I had my interview last week and am waiting for a response to all my application materials. It will be nice to meet all the other 08-09 hopefuls and if we are all accepted and able to attend, I look forward to meeting all of you as well.

I currently live in Clinton, Iowa, which is a grain of salt little town an hour away from the quad cities (if anyone is familiar with Iowa). I am twenty and will have my AAS in Graphic Design in may and hope to attend Hallmark in Sep. I have been photographing in my area for several years, have won several local awards for my fine art photography but, this is not the area to be bragging about such. There isn't much of a market so I look to Hallmark not only to help shape my still raw talents but, hopefully be able to make a living off of the career that I love.

If anyone is interested they may check out my current work at my website, www.pkorovilas.com, or a highlight of my latest fine art project, "project+", at nationally recognized writer Jonothan Blooms website, www.wastedfood.com/gallery.

"Project+" is a series of 11x16 canvas prints, studying the issues of food waste, human nature, and our effects on the environment. It has moved around locally but I hope, as I build the volume of work, it will move around the country, I am hoping for all 50 states, sometime in my life. I think we live in an extraordinary time in human history and we are holding on to a lot of negative habits that we must learn to drop if we hope to successful continue to increase our population in a world of increasingly scarce resources. If anyone has any reading time I found a fantastic piece of online reading that currently puts our current world situation into perspective: http://www.naturalnews.com/report_Seven_Words_0.html .

Anyways, I think I got a little off subject but, I do hope to attend and make the large step to a career in the work that I love. I hope to meet all of you prospective students and continue to see these extremely helpful posts.

Thanks, -Pantelis A. Korovilas

Hi Everyone!

Being a prospective 2008-2009 Student, I would like to thank everyone for the unbelievably helpful posts (even the not so welcoming ones). I think, when making these major decisions, it is a wise idea to look at all aspects of it, including the not-so-successful stories.

I had my interview yesterday and in the process of gathering my materials within my two week deadline. Nice to meet all the other 08-09 hopefuls that have posted above, and if we are all accepted and able to attend, I look forward to meeting all of you as well.
