Expand I am just curious how big are the classes for YDS's master of religion program? do they only take in one or two students per professor or are they having a bigger class like 20 over students per seminar?

Expand I see. I should have applied for Yale MA . I didnt apply because I didnt get to find enough info that I needed a few months back, but recently I found that info that I needed about the course was actually there! Although this thread is about MTS, I would also like to know if any one is admitted to Yale too. D.S. 1
