This was a while ago but the thing that stuck with me was that I did two interviews, provided contact information for my references, followed up after my final interview, and received no response.

Interview
Easy, very relaxed, on zoom, not very long. Same for UAL, not pressure and most at this point get an offer. They might also tell u the name ofanother course which might fit you best
I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Parsons the New School for Design (New York, NY) in Jun 2025
Interview
applied through online portal and was contacted 5 months later by heads of departments. relatively simple interview online, more like a conversation. Department and interviewer wanted to give me an offer, but after contracting HR, unfortunately they only hire US citizens, green card holders or O-1 visas. I wish that was explained more clearly in job postings, as it was unclear where other categories were eligible.
