From what I understand, Yale is strong in systematic theology. Specifically I know that Kathryn Tanner and Miroslav Volf teach within that disciple. I am currently taking a course with them and it is excellent. It seems like YDS serves as a feeder into the religion and theology Phd programs at Yale. If you have any YDS specific questions please let me know!
I am still waiting on Mdiv results from union... I don't know that it will affect my decision but I would still love to know!! I think that it is really unfortunate that union's rep seems to be going downhill. Of all my undergrad professors and the reverends I know, I looked up to those who attended Union for their Mdiv the most. When I first began the application process I expected union to be my top choice. Oh well....
I found out via email yesterday. They said that they would be mailing me more information at the end of the week.
To be honest I never imagined getting in so I hadn't really considered it as a real option. I also really don't want to move to Chicago... but this offer would be silly to turn down. I guess I will have to wait and see once I hear from other schools.
As a masters level applicant (MTS) I am interested in where PhDs pursued their masters level work, whether or not you recommend the school/ program, and any advice you have for those of us who are about to embark on this masters degree journey…. Thanks!!
Hmm yes, still waiting on Candler. When you called did they give any indication of whether they would notify online (opus) or via mail? I want to know!
