Is there a facebook group you can join for admitted students? Maybe you can introduce yourself there and chat with people before school starts!

Accepted at YDS with scholarship as well! @Joey_Jawad I would also choose Boston over New Haven, but I prefer the program at YDS because I think it's better suited for my concentration/field (arts).

Crossing fingers for both of us! From the vibe I got from attending virtual events, I feel like the div community has a place for everyone, so I wouldn't worry too much. If we ever cross paths in real life, I'll be sure to say hi!?

I'm from MA too!--been around Boston for too long, so HDS is my second choice haha. As for YDS, I'm especially interested in the arts and the courses they had fit my interests the most. Plus, I feel like my personal statement for YDS came out more naturally than for other schools (hopefully my writing reflected this!).

Not a fan of videos myself, but at least the questions are interesting enough. Makes me think about how I would answer them myself lol. My top choice is definitely YDS because their program was the reason I even got interested in MTS from the start. How about you?

I applied to HDS YDS and UChicago in similar subfields as Emory, and I received the scholarship info along with the acceptance letter. And wow making a video must've been an interesting process--good luck!

Hi all, first time posting here. I got into Emory Candler MTS just recently and the letter said I have until March 1st to accept the offer. I know that other schools won't have the results until mid March, so I'm thinking about emailing to ask for an extension to decide. Is this a good idea or should I wait at least a week for other results to come in? The two week deadline seems way too short to properly weigh my options..
