hey everyone, i'm waitlisted at boston college. he basically said they sent out offers to 17 people hoping to enroll 12. Their waitlist is about 6 and I'm right in the middle. Here's praying some lucky ducks have somewhere else as their #1!

Lux Lex Pax: do you know anything about loyola chicago? i'm totally regretting not having applied to duke and vanderbilt.

I don't know if you've seen this plus it's super complicated, but interesting: http://chronicle.com/article/nrc-religion/124664/

congrats. i wish i was the one receiving your interview but i haven't heard from nd! duke is fantastic, all the best!

yes i did get it on thursday! ha! any word from fordham?

ha ha. i'm not in that love triangle having only one acceptance and one wait list though i did receive four emails from folks at loyola chicago. with boston college (where i really want to go) i received an email saying "i hope you'll keep thinking of us because we're thinking of you." but of course i'm not accepted there!

congrats soloview! does anyone have insider info on waitlists and how soon you hear?

ok who is claiming the other acceptance?

congrats! i just received an email that I've been put on a very short wait list. here's praying and here's to some serious discernment for all of us!

i don't know how to quote body politics too but basically i just talked to the admin asst. they only accept two people in ethics.

it could just be the ethics people that were contacted. i don't know about the NT people...

thanks. yeah, pretty disappointed about notre dame. driving myself and my family crazy.

which institution do you already attend and have you heard from any others? BC, ND, etc.? I actually know the least about Loyola Chicago of all the programs I applied to. I suspect Duquesne will not contact for a while.

HI all, I just got an email of acceptance to Loyola Chicago for Integrative Studies in Theology and Ethics. I'm excited since I hadn't heard from Notre Dame and was worried I wouldn't be accepted anywhere. It includes full tuition, $18K stipend, and health insurance. I am hoping to talk more at length with them and learn more. Anyone else? Will post on results soon.

see my above response. but also, seriously, i think i just am dying to contact admissions and hear something! ha!

yeah i don't know why i didn't think of that. of course, my husband can do it and i'll have access to phone just not internet (going to rural haiti!). in 2001 when i was waiting on master's programs a best friend checked my email for me while i was away on a mission trip! thanks!

hi everyone, i'm going to be out of the country march 2-9 with no access to email. should i email admissions folks this information or no? i will have access to phone...appreciate your thoughts!

congrats! does anyone have a guess when bc will come out?

Thank you theo.phil.us! I am praying for my vocation. I'm the mom, we have two boys under five, and my husband is a fellow theologian. Academia is an interesting profession particularly religion scholars and theologians. I appreciate the kindnesses mentioned on here.

Congrats! Very exciting!

thanks. can you tell i'm filled with extreme anxiety! good luck to all!

can you share your specialty? did you get an email or phone call?

congrats! ubi charitas can you say who emailed you? what are the odds they are sending out a few more emails? or rejections?

congratulations! i haven't heard anything

congrats! you have much better GRE scores than me!
