November is here, and the application year has suddenly kicked into overdrive.  The reality of college applications is upon us, and questions are coming fast and furious.  My mantra is that the only dumb question is the one that isn’t asked, so no one should feel shy about asking a question, no matter how strange you think it is.  Since everyone likes to ask their questions in their own way, here’s a few places where you can get your questions answered:

The Facts + Figures section of the RISD website is a great source of number-ish type information.

In the same area, you can find an FAQ

Call us.  Our office hours are 8:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday East Coast time.  The main number is 401-454-6300 or 800-364-7473.

E-mail us.  The office e-mail address is admissions@risd.edu.

Finally, I run a facebook group called Lucy’s RISD Admissions 101.  The wall is full of useful information, and every time someone posts, everyone benefits.  I let group members know when our deadlines are coming up, when the notifications have gone out, and when I see interesting things going on around the school.

So if you have questions about RISD, the application process, or anything ask in any way that suits you!
