hi, everyone! joining this thread to ease my anxiety as I wait!
this is my first time applying to Ph.D. programs, and I fear that I am terribly underqualified! I applied to only Northwestern (American Religions), Princeton (Religion in the Americas), Temple, and Drew (Religion and Society). My primary focus is on Catholicism and abortion in the U.S. I came to the Ph.D. with a background in journalism and activism, having recently completed a book for a large Catholic nonprofit, but I lack a MDiv, Master's in Religion, etc. which makes me feel very underqualified! (I do have an MFA in Writing and currently, teach composition at a four-year university).
I had an interview with Temple this weekend, and have been invited to sit in on a seminar by their department chair.
Does anyone know if Princeton continues interviewing later in the cycle? And does Northwestern generally do interviews, too?
