Eshearer Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 Friends who are on the waitlist for UVA... How are you doing? How are you holding up? What do you wanna study? Goals? Dreams? Since we are all in this together right now I figured we could try and raise one another up!
Ian d'thou Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 Hey Eshearer, Fellow Waitlister at UVA. Modern and Contemporary Religious Thought Subfield. Bouchard is my POI (among others). Are you Xtian Theology or other? Best of luck to you... and the waiting!
m97 Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 Hi, I’m curious, are you waitlisted for UVA’s PhD program or Masters program?
Ian d'thou Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 m97- Phd. Are you on the waitlist as well?
Eshearer Posted February 14, 2020 Author Posted February 14, 2020 Hey friends! I'm wait listed for Christian Studies. Would love to study with Mathewes, Jones, and Flores. Love the program so much.
m97 Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Ian d'thou - No, I applied to UVA's masters program and am waiting to hear back. I was curious because I haven't seen any conversation on their masters program, but since their PhD decisions are being made, fingers crossed that masters decisions will follow shortly! Best of luck to you!!
Ian d'thou Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Best of luck m97, and Eshearer. Yeah UVA is a great program and fit. Also waiting on decisions from Harvard and Chicago Div.. Good news is a lot of programs are posting so hopefully there will be movement on the waitlist! m97- I think masters decisions are separate, but hopefully you'll hear soon!
batyah Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Waitlisted too - looking at Animal Ethics with Willis Jenkins. Not my top choice school though. Just not the best fit for me I think.
batyah Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I just officially withdrew my application today. So, if I happened to be ahead of anyone in the waitlist, hopefully this bumps you up a bit! I paid my deposit for Drew, so that's where I'm headed this fall. Hope things work out for all of you!

coffee2700 Posted March 16, 2020 Posted March 16, 2020 Has anyone heard anything about people accepting offers or movement on waitlists? Should I abandon hope? I am Christian Theological Perspectives track!

Should I abandon hope? I am Christian Theological Perspectives track! I haven't heard anything on movement. I did hear a few weeks ago that they had a low number of accepted initial offers. It seems like a lot of folks were holding out to see other offers. I'm not sure if the Corona shut-down will slow things up either. I'm sure those initial offers will keep us on pins and needles until the deadline.

Also I have heard from a couple of their faculty members that the majority of their Phd students get in off the waitlist... so there's some hope!
Eshearer Posted April 16, 2020 Author Posted April 16, 2020 My friends! I have been accepted off the Waitlist. I will be attending UVA as a doctoral student in Christian Theological Perspectives! Good luck to all of you! batyah and Ian d'thou 1 1
