Approximate Decision Date

[Xavier27]

If the priority admission deadline for theology school was Jan. 15, 2020 and I submitted my application two days before that date, when do you guys think I would receive the decision? I know this is a difficult question, but I'm anxious and still don't want to contact admissions until at least a month after submission.

Did you apply for a Masters or a PhD? It all depends on the school/program, but I feel like I waited until March to hear back about my Masters program.

It's a Master's Degree in Theological Studies. The school has an admission rate of 69% and its student body is about 400 students. It would be my second masters.

Based on the type of school it sounds like you're describing, my guess is you'll hear back sometime in February, although March is possible. If you mention the school's name, I might be able to give you a better estimate. Feel free to PM me.

It’s very well the school subscribes to notifying everyone on March 15. Tell us the name of the school and we can give a more direct answer.
