Wee-Bey

UToronto RS has notified their first round of applicants with baseline funding. They notified via phone on a Friday a couple weeks ago, and said they would follow up with a more formal email/letter on the next Monday (which is what Essei_John was probably referring to). That's all I know, not sure about timetable for decisions, wait-list, etc. other than that some people have been notified of acceptance. To my knowledge, no schools from Toronto School of Theology have notified anyone yet.

Though I know now that I won't have to opt for my Plan B (*still holding my breath because I fear this euphoric bubble I've been in for the past two weeks might pop and I will find out my acceptance was a mistake*) I was also looking into teaching at a private high school. Since this is my third foray into PhD application season and I have had to take multiple "plan B's" (BA in Philosophy rather than Theology...MA in English rather than Philosophy...MA in Theological Studies...ministry...teaching...) I was prepared for the inevitable mental/emotional/spiritual renegotiation. 
But, for those of you facing it as a reality maybe for the first time...maybe not...just know that, at least in my experience, detours happen and I have always been better for the experience gathered while on them. And at the risk of leaving a cliche in this hallowed space, "way leads onto way" and I have never regretted taking Plan B.       

Thanks for this. I'm trying not to hate you for taking the slot at BC I also applied for
 
I'm already in year one of plan b. We'll see what year 2 brings.

Same here. I'm in the process of beginning postulancy right now, so whenever I get done with schooling I still have the priesthood. Although my end goal is academia as well as priesthood. I'm in the same boat as you, preferably priesthood and academia if all works out.

Wishing you the best!!
