First post on the forum (habitual lurker on the school specific admission/denial/waitlist threads). Interested in Ethics, applied to six schools in the religion departments (Yale, Emory, UToronto, Harvard, Vandy, UChicago) and one in a philosophy dept (Northwestern). So far, I have heard back from Emory (will be at the welcome weekend) and from Yale (phone interview).
Thanks for keeping this thread running and keeping me sane, i.e., anonymous masses feeling the same rising and sinking feels as I have been .
