    I applied two years ago, and there was only a Skype interview. Not sure if that differs depending on your area of study, though.

    You may have already said this in part of the above conversation (I was skimming to catch up), but in case it hasn’t been said — have you asked your questions of the DGS or POI at the places you’re applying? It sounds like some people here are knowledgeable your program, but I still think it’s worth asking what you need to have a competitive application. Maybe a DGS will just point you to a list of minimum requirements to apply (not super helpful), but I was able to figure out what my GRE scores and language proficiencies actually needed to be to have a realistic shot in talking to a DGS.

    Is the person who posted the Duke ThD HB acceptance here (April 10)? Shoot me a message if so!

    I’ve heard nothing from ND officially but got an email from a prof this afternoon that started with “I’m sure you’ve heard from the grad school by this point...” sooo maybe decisions will be out shortly??

    Whoops, totally missed everyone's "didn't get in" comments, re: Duke Div, before I asked if anyone had good news. Sorry, y'all! I was WLed. Can't win 'em all, I guess. As far as the scores, I was told Div admissions pulls them from those submitted to Duke University; I can see my scores, but I also applied to the GPR.

    Anyone celebrating good news from Duke Div? Hope so!

    Not me! I did receive an interview invitation, but I'm waiting to post until I have something official.

    I just heard from Emory (HB). I imagine different areas notify at different times, though. Hope it’s good news for you!

    Question: Do schools typically send an email when your application status changes in their application portal? I've been checking my application status for a few applications, but I saw people saying they had received emails telling them to check their status because it had recently changed -- so perhaps my checking regularly is unnecessary?

    This conversation reads a bit like a barometer of stress levels...Hang in there, y'all!

    Does that 8 include all subject areas??

    No idea. Last year, per a first-year GPR student, interview invitations went out on 1/27. Another person told me she thought they went out in February but wasn't quite sure. Seriously, though, I'm dying over here, i.e., refreshing my email entirely too often and hoping I haven't just been passed over.

    I got one for CJA/HB. Appreciate the info about when invitations would be coming!
  14. msdb
    I'm hoping to do HB and haven't heard from CJA; another friend applied for NT and hasn't heard from ND either. Hoping that means interview invitations haven't gone out, but who knows. I thought I could be a good fit for CJA/ND, but perhaps they disagreed. (But I'm really hoping invites just haven't gone out yet...)

    Thanks, @KA.DINGER.RA and @xypathos! Y'all are giving me hope this afternoon!

    I saw on the results page that someone had been invited to interview at Notre Dame for the WCWR track. (Congrats to you, results-poster!) I assume this means interview invites have gone out for each of ND's concentrations but was curious if anyone knew for sure. Also, does anyone know how many candidates Vanderbilt interviews for the T & P Fellowship? And is it just one fellowship, or are there multiple T & P spots per year? Thanks!

    I got a phone interview (I think that's what I'd call it) but not anything on campus. Happy to chat! And thanks, all, for the info on Vandy, ND, and Duke. Happy continued waiting!

    I just heard from Emory as well (interview invitation for Hebrew Bible). For those of you who are Grad Cafe pros, is that something I post in the results section or only here? Also, does anyone know what timelines have been in the past for Duke, Vandy, or ND? Patience is not my strong suit...!

    Hi all, Late to this thread, but I applied to Duke, Duke Div, Harvard, Yale, PTS, Emory, Vandy, and ND. Had a phone call with Yale and received an email from Emory expressing interest but radio silence from everywhere else. Has anyone heard anything from the others? I saw PTS extended invites, so that's a bummer for me. Hoping Duke will express interest...
