sacklunch Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Still nothing. I really am on the verge of just calling or emailing someone. I'm surprised. I looked at the results earlier and thought to myself that you would know by now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seatbelt Blue Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yeah. I am really starting to think i didn't get in. Everybody seems to have been notified yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JillUMASS Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So I get a letter last Friday from Duke about financial information saying decisions will be ready in a couple days, it's not Thursday and still nothing. This seems a bit backwards to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JillUMASS Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Merit-based or need-based? I've received nothing in the mail. I don't think it's considered either. I didn't get it in the mail, it was an email sent out. I even emailed the director to ask for some clarification because it was a bit confusing. He said they send those out first so you have a better idea of the financials before you receive your decision. I took it as a good sign because they rejected me last year and I didn't get a letter like that before hand. However, it's not a very good offer, I have one from Wake Forest that's $10,000 more. Just to clarify, it's from the grad program in arts and sciences and not the divinity school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seatbelt Blue Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) I got off the phone with the admissions department at BC, and acceptances are being sent alphabetically and they're still going out. Notifications will come regardless of acceptance or rejection, so the fact that I haven't gotten anything means nothing except that, with a last name starting with V, am at the back of the alphabet. As the saying goes, Poland is not yet lost. Edited March 7, 2013 by Seatbelt Blue doobiebrothers, toby42, Therewillbeluke and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taycross Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I thought for sure I would have heard something this week. But alas, nothing yet. Still waiting on Notre Dame, Duke, Yale, and Fordham. And Marquette funding information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seatbelt Blue Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'm still waiting on Fordham, too. If I may ask, have they been at all communicative regarding the process? I haven't heard a word from them since I got my transcripts in months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taycross Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I've heard nothing from them. Perhaps it's worth a call to the admissions department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrisDonlon Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Well, just got a slightly discouraging phone call. I was only offered a 40% ride to Candler's MTS. =/ Granted if I go there I can commute, so it's still potentially less expensive according to where else I get in regardless. Man, what a bummer.

CrisDonlon Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Is this sarcastic? I can't see how that is a bummer! I was just hoping for more I guess. I mean, realistically it is not a bad position to be in. It's just with my undergrad debt it's kind of scary having to go into more. But it IS education, so it's definitely worth it. But that's just the first news I've heard from anywhere, we'll see what other places say. I'm still hopeful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katie_m Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Those of you who were accepted to Duke MDiv via phone, has anyone received a packet in the mail? When they called me on Feb 22 they said more information was coming in the mail, but I still haven't received it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTG49 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 So, tomorrow being Friday, I wonder if we MTS applicants will get word from Notre Dame or Duke...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toby42 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 That's what I was thinking.... I'm kinda expecting next week though. Aren't the ND Ph.D notifications going out Monday? I'd expect that us lowly MTS/MA applicants would hear back after them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
