rav989 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 wait-listed at princeton poi wrote an e-mail. applicants admitted off wait-list "on rare occasions"... on to law school i guess.
EndlessAshley Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Does anyone have any insights into Emory's notification process? Why are rejections trickling out so very, very slowly?
newenglandshawn Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I'm sure I missed this, but who was it that got into the HDS ThD program in Hebrew Bible?
Perique69 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Does anyone have any insights into Emory's notification process? Why are rejections trickling out so very, very slowly? Emory accepted their top 18 already. They're probably waiting to hear from these candidates then they'll finish all rejections. Either way, it's pretty safe to conclude that if you haven't been accepted already, you won't be. Historically, one or two manage to get in off the wait list, but the wait-listers may not know until mid April.
la sarar Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I'm sure I missed this, but who was it that got into the HDS ThD program in Hebrew Bible? I didn't apply; I have a friend who got rejected. We both are doing our masters here. But one of the admitted students might be a girl who also studies here. I guess.
Body Politics Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Anyone want to claim the Baylor Religion PhD acceptance from today? There's no subfield and I got a buddy who applied to the PhD in Theology who's gnawing off his fingers waiting for his results. Edited February 21, 2013 by Body Politics
yhujikol Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Sorry but I don't. He went to Penn. His field is Jewish Studies. I thought that studying with Prof. Levenson at HDS would've been great, and Prof. Cohen at NELC, Harvard. So, I would guess---but I never asked him really--that this actually had something to do with the ThD. But I might be making things up. If you like I can ask if I could give you his contact info. But the reason for declining an offer could be pretty private, so ... la sarar, I would very much appreciate it. I'd understand if he doesn't want to share his reasons, but if he does, I would be very thankful. Edited February 21, 2013 by yhujikol
JakeC Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Just got waitlisted at Baylor today. Anyone know prospects for waitlist there? I was waitlisted last year as well but didn't get in.
JakeC Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Yes I applied for the New Testament program in the Department of Relogion.
religiousstudiesscholar Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 The lone Yale acceptance is interesting . . .
belichick Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Thank you so much for the information. I was admitted to the ThD program, and was wondering what my fate would be. I wouldn't mind the PhD, maybe even better in some ways. Are students able to transfer from one to the other? transferring's not an option. unacclimated 1
Kuriakos Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Yes I applied for the New Testament program in the Department of Relogion. I was waitlisted too, though I was emailed about it some time ago (and again today). No idea what the odds are, but I heard they invited 5 for 3 openings.
coffeekid Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 The lone Yale acceptance is interesting . . . I know of another person, not active on grad cafe, who was accepted to Yale American Religious History earlier this week. I applied to philosophy of religion and emailed the department on Tuesday, and haven't received a reply. I'd be shocked with anything other than a rejection at this point. But suffice it to say that there have been others accepted. unacclimated 1
JakeC Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I was waitlisted too, though I was emailed about it some time ago (and again today). No idea what the odds are, but I heard they invited 5 for 3 openings. Interesting. Like I said, I was waitlisted and then rejected later in March. Would suck if that happened again.
SDG2 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I was accepted today into Duke's Th.D. and they ended up taking seven total.
aquinaikat Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I was accepted today into Duke's Th.D. and they ended up taking seven total. Did the ThD Director notify you? And did she say whether they have notified everyone?
SDG2 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I got an email from Susan Eastman, the director. I'm pretty sure they have notified everyone who has been offered admission, but I have no idea about wait listing or anything like that.
Troppman Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Don't know if the question has already been posed: Anybody submitting abstracts for this year's aar/sbl meeting?
la sarar Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 la sarar, I would very much appreciate it. I'd understand if he doesn't want to share his reasons, but if he does, I would be very thankful. i'll ask him right now!
crackthesky Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Anyone want to claim the Yale acceptance from this morning? Congrats! Interested in what subfield...
Body Politics Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Seriously, Religion people: Please put your subfields when you submit results! Body Politics and Kuriakos 2

ecotheology518 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I just got my Duke ThD rejection letter. At least I've finally heard something from a school.
