so if I didn't get an interview from Yale at this moment, it basically means a rejection? although I'm on a different track

based on what i heard, that would be my personal guess, but i’m not sure how wait lists work or if all subfields interview

Does anyone know around when do UVA, Vanderbilt, Princeton release their admission results for PhD applicants? 

I interviewed with Vanderbilt last week, waiting on final results. Best of luck to us both!!

Hi all! First time posting here :) I am waiting to hear back from eight programs after my first rejection from Duke. Does anyone know if Columbia does mandatory interviews? Thanks, and good luck to all!

Received rejection letter from both PTS and Cambridge today..

It hurts..

I'm sorry to hear that. Do you still have more places to hear from?

I checked with my POI and he said Vanderbilt already have sent out all the interview invites last week and I did not receive any.

I came here hoping someone had...but no

Duke ThD acceptances went out.

Just had my interview with Chicago. That was intense. Chicago doesn't play! Given no hints other than 'it will take a few weeks.'

Hi all,

I'm new to this, but I thought I'd share what's going on for me. I'm a big fan of information sharing whenever possible since we are real people who've got real lives to plan for-- spouses, kids, homes, cities, jobs, congregations etc-- real stuff that takes time to plan for! And since the schools aren't always great about treating us as such. 

So, I got a hard no from BC and PTS (very timely, thanks guys); interviewed with Emory, Duke ThD, Yale, and BU; am waitlisted at Duke PhD and Duke ThD, and have heard not a word from anyone else. 

Also, an encouragement: there will always be opportunities to read and teach and write, and even if this particular circus doesn't pan out, there are many good ways to be a nerd.

xoxo,

Shoop

[PonderingPerson400]

Any updates from schools?

I'm waiting to hear back from BC! Interviewed in January but still haven't heard anything but I know a few different people have heard *something*... I can't tell if the silence is preferable to a rejection tho!
