hermeneut Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 It appears as if two students have received notices of acceptance for Marquette's Ph.D. in theology. Care to share details? Please PM me if you don't want to make a public post. Thanks in advance, Hermeneut (Joe)
new mexico Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 someone was notified for BU's ThD...so does that mean MDiv applicants will hear soon?
Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 In Regards to a VDS Mdiv application status check: We have received everything and your application has been sent to the admissions committee for review. You should receive correspondence from the Admissions Committee very soon. TheHymenAnnihilator, foodtruck and craprap 3
phoskaialetheia Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Candler MTS anyone? Still waiting... I'm a full week outside their typical two-week window now. Called them this morning, and got the usual 'try back in a few days' spiel. Someone on this board had heard back about a week ago. You still waiting too?
E P Unum Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 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!

Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Opus. We just have to keep checking like idiots until the decision is posted. Hey, at least that program has an ability to check your status...I'm stuck waiting on post for some. foodtruck, tacotruck, TheHymenAnnihilator and 1 other 4
Owlrus Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 My OPUS changed from "Your admissions decision is not available at this time" at 9 am today to "Congratulations on your acceptance!" at 9:30. Not that I checked obsessively or anything.

Not that I checked obsessively or anything. Congrats! Do they include funding info, or does that come later? Too and also, I just got my first stateside school decision back in the post. Vandy accepted me for their MTS in Biblical Studies, but with only 40% tuition remission. I know Nashville is cheap, but this would be tough to swing. I hope other programs can do better, but I kind of doubt it.

Emory's funding comes later... though my tax returns are still on their way, so maybe if you have all your financial stuff in already you will get notice of funding earlier? Not sure.
xsjsx Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Hurray!!! I just opened a letter from Vanderbilt and I was accepted into the MTS program. And let me just say that the scholarship makes the offer very appealing.
Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I'm wondering if the Vandy letters are just for MTS or if the MDiv letters have been mailed as well? Ugh, but congrats on your acceptances! foodtruck, tacotruck, craprap and 1 other 4
Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I'm wondering if the Vandy letters are just for MTS or if the MDiv letters have been mailed as well? Ugh, but congrats on your acceptances! Just answered my own question - admitted to Vanderbilt Divinity School with very good funding. MDivs are in the mail officially then. foodtruck, tacotruck, Thanks4Downvoting and 1 other 1 3
Beeroz Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Just answered my own question - admitted to Vanderbilt Divinity School with very good funding. MDivs are in the mail officially then. Congrats! Has anyone heard from Yale, Harvard or Indiana yet? I've got 2 good offers under my belt, but I'm waiting anxiously on these three to make my decision.

Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Congrats! Is Vandy your first choice? It's very high on my list, but I've promised myself not to rank anything until I get the offers on the table. craprap and foodtruck 2
Thanks4Downvoting Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I wonder what a solid admit from Vandy says about my chances at HDS, YDS, and Union (the three I haven't heard back from). foodtruck and craprap 2
TheHymenAnnihilator Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I have yet to hear from Harvard or Yale yet as I'm applying to the master's program. Which programs are you applying to? A colleague of mine heard from Harvard already (rejected from the NT PhD; and waitlisted on the NT ThD). I neither know about Yale's doctoral notifications through the GDR nor Indiana's. Congrats! Has anyone heard from Yale, Harvard or Indiana yet? I've got 2 good offers under my belt, but I'm waiting anxiously on these three to make my decision. craprap 1
tehom Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I received a great offer from Drew yesterday (Ph.D.). I am excited, but still waiting to here from Harvard GSAS, Yale, and Union before I can make a decision. How was your friend notified about the Harvard Ph.D.? When did s/he get the news?
Beeroz Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I have yet to hear from Harvard or Yale yet as I'm applying to the master's program. Which programs are you applying to? A colleague of mine heard from Harvard already (rejected from the NT PhD; and waitlisted on the NT ThD). I neither know about Yale's doctoral notifications through the GDR nor Indiana's. I applied to the religions of late antiquity PhD. I don't really expect to get in based on their last few years of accepting their own masters students, but I am surprised that I haven't heard anything at all yet, Maybe its in the mail and just hasn't reached me yet here in seattle. craprap 1
troublelovesme Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Long time lurker, first time poster. I thought I'd add my news. I heard back from Candler via OPUS on the 22nd...an acceptance, yay! Oh, and it is an acceptance for the MTS.

Oh, and it is an acceptance for the MTS. Pardon my ignorance, but what is OPUS? I've heard a few people mention that before on here.
Owlrus Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 Pardon my ignorance, but what is OPUS? I've heard a few people mention that before on here. Opus is Emory's web site for applicants and students, it offers a to-do list for admissions and financial aid. Decision letters are uploaded to Opus before anything official is delivered through the post service.
new mexico Posted February 24, 2011 Author Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) I wonder what a solid admit from Vandy says about my chances at HDS, YDS, and Union (the three I haven't heard back from). Well, congrats on the Vandy . Although, I hope you get accepted to HDS for the MDiv. I got into Boston University for the MDiv, and if you get into HDS we could take some classes via the consortium! Anyways, I'm going to BU Edited February 24, 2011 by new mexico
