Just got my waitlist notification from UConn. They also invited me to the prospective student weekend. Will most likely decline since I have offers at other schools.

I emailed UVA and they told me that I was neither accepted nor on the waiting list. So there's that. Nothing is finalized yet, though, so to those who are still holding out hope, good luck!

I see there's a Yale American Religion interview posted on the Results forum. Anyone wants to claim it? Either way, congratulations!

No rejection notice here, but no acceptance notice either as of this morning.

Someone got a website notification of acceptance to UNC on the results forum.

I agree with the poster above. Just be completely honest and open. They've already found you; you can't really help that anymore. Thank them for their interest and explain your situation in as much detail as you have provided here. Good luck!

Duke's deadline was one of the earliest--December 8.

Looks like someone got a heads up about a potential interview with Yale over email earlier today. (It's on the Results forum.) They must have started reviewing files already. Intriguing.

Interesting. Yeah, my reports still show up as "pending" as of today. But thank you for the helpful tip. Hope others can use it!

I took the test on November 24 (was scheduled to take it much earlier, but tropical storm Sandy had other ideas and re-scheduled my appointment). I know my V and Q scores, but not my writing score. Should I just leave that part blank in an application that's due tomorrow? Should I report a writing score from a previous GRE I took (it was pretty decent last time, 5.0)? Any wisdom would be appreciated.

I used to be an MAR at the Div School. Graduated two years ago. I would email their admissions person (Sean) and ask him to put you in touch with students in your area directly. They are generally pretty responsive, and I think you'll find contacting them directly useful.

GWU - I'm in the same boat as @chambjn and @rjsmith1031. Really hoping that the university will be able to find funding for those who want to attend. Guessing I'll be seeing some of you at the informational meeting at the end of March in D.C.

GWU responded to my email asking when the final decisions would be released:

Yale announced.

I emailed Indiana at the beginning of last week. Here is the response I got from the DGS on February 21, 2012: "We are nearing the point when we can send out notifications, but are not quite there yet."

Looks like George Washington is announcing today. 2 rejections posted in the Results forum.

Received an email response from Michigan (Ann Arbor) - American Culture regarding when the decisions will be announced: "I hope to get them out tomorrow."

The above is making me want to write a dissertation entirely on Arrested Development.

I did. Eager to hear back, too.

This might be of interest to applicants to the UMN program. I emailed the department to find out when the decisions will be available and received the following response:

Thanks for the clarification. Is it safe to assume that the 8 have already been notified?

So judging by the results forum, a few people have been wait-listed. Anyone accepted? One of the posts said they only accepted 4 people so far this year.

The person offered admission kindly replied in the Results forum:

Emailed Claremont Graduate University Women's Studies in Religion program. Got an acceptance email back almost right away. Also got my Harvard Ph.D. rejection in the mail today. Was my top choice. Still waiting on UT Austin and Northwestern.
