For those wondering, Duke's admissions team is calling accepted applicants today and will send acceptance emails in the afternoon. I'm over the moon right now! Congrats! What a great call to receive!!!! LakeSuperior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a highly qualified applicant (philosophy and theology degrees, perfect GPA, near perfect GRE, seven languages, presentations at conferences, pastoral experience, etc.) with interests in sync with the department, but there are just aren't alot of spots available this year...a big congrats to all those who got offers! And I hope those of you with rejection letter in hand can maintain the dream even if it doesn't come true this particular year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm mystified as to why they didn't take my friend. I don't know what else he could have done to improve his application. Maybe he was overqualified? Maybe there were several applications very similiar to his? Anyway, you should have no doubt that you have something unique that ND was looking for and you should be proud of that!

davidhume1739 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Hi there! Congrats on everyone who has been accepted to programs and best of luck to those still waiting! Has anyone heard about the MPhil or MSt in Philosophical theology at Oxford? I know they sent out some acceptances but there is only 3 (including PhD) reported on the forum so I was wondering if maybe there would be more. Thank you! sorenerasmus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have released offers for the PhD Theology but I think they are a little more streamlined with the MPhil and MsT and release acceptances a few days before rejections, but all at the same time.

I did receive an acceptance (MPhil in Theology) via email at the end of last week but just posted it on the results forum today. From my impression it seems as though they send the notices in waves, and not necessarily all on the same day, potentially depending on subfields within the faculty. Best wishes!

ke0817 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Do any of the Oxford people know about funding yet? Curious as to whether I should email the department and ask if I’ve been nominated... Edited March 1, 2021 by ke0817 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasiena Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Waiting for HDS and Chicago Divinity... I have lots of other work to do but the days are dragging.

Joey_Jawad Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Hm I'm going to take a (hopeful?) wager and guess that Chicago releases results this Friday, because what I've learned from previous threads is that schools like to give out bad news on Fridays? but then again that's just my desperate-to-be-out-of-limbo self talking Edited March 4, 2021 by Joey_Jawad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
