Going Insane Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 This is a tough time for all of us and it would be great to know what the admitted students plan to do. For example, does anyone know who was admitted to Duke (Religion and Modernity)?
crackthesky Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 I also love the idea of this thread. Wait listed at University of Chicago, Religious Ethics. Not sure how frequently UofC needs to go to the wait list, though.
matthew2725 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 How did you all hear about Chicago? By which I mean, is there a way to check application decision online?
crackthesky Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 How did you all hear about Chicago? By which I mean, is there a way to check application decision online? I heard from an e-mail I received on Friday night. My online application status has not changed from "submitted" so it is unlikely that they have updated the system yet.
Random Screen Name Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Hey y'all, I don't know who was admitted to Religion and Modernity at Duke - I don't specifically remember meeting anyone at the prospective weekend but that may have just been because I didn't sit near them. I actually applied in R&M originally, but they moved me to Christian Theological Studies (where I was accepted). I'll be accepting Duke's offer and have withdrawn from the Moral Theology interview at Notre Dame. I wrote the ND folks early in the week hoping that they would be able to invite someone else for the interview weekend. indefiniteintegral 1

Do you know why they moved you to another track?!
Random Screen Name Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 That's very nice of you. I'm sure you made someone very happy. Do you know why they moved you to another track?! They thought that my interests would fit a lot better in theology than R&M (which is probably true).

Random Screen Name Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Congrats! Thanks! I was totally shocked when I found out. Peace to all of you in this decidedly un-peaceful season. indefiniteintegral 1
Theo-Be Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 hey everyone, i'm waitlisted at boston college. he basically said they sent out offers to 17 people hoping to enroll 12. Their waitlist is about 6 and I'm right in the middle. Here's praying some lucky ducks have somewhere else as their #1!

So, its it 6 people on the waiting list for just your area? Edited February 22, 2013 by Neem217

I could be confused about the # on the wait list. i apologize if i'm mixing up the #s (i still don't understand why you'd extend 17 with an enrollment hope for 12) but i did speak to him yesterday. what he said is that it's not ranked by area just ranked. so say two from systematics and one from NT drop then someone who's from ethics could still get in. did you receive waitlist word? are you ethics? good luck
yhujikol Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Waitlisted at Harvard. Anyone planning on declining the GSAS PhD offer?
Soloviev Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Just to give people a heads up, I will be turning down three programs in systematics today. I hope that opens some things up. Feel free to PM me if you want to know about whether it is a program you are wait-listed at. Pax
Ubi charitas Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 In case this helps anyone here, I just turned down an offer from Baylor (in theology).
vega maudlin Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I just turned down an offer from Princeton RMA -- I hope it helps someone -- and am now deciding between Yale NT and ND CJA. If you are high on the waitlist on either of those places and would find it helpful to PM me, you should feel free.
Ubi charitas Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I also turned down an offer from SMU (systematic theology) just now, so I hope that this opens up an opportunity for someone here. Bruce Marshall and William Abraham are very fine scholars.
crackthesky Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I declined two offers today. Hope it helps someone wait listed on here!
yhujikol Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 To the person who posted a UCSB waitlist: I just declined the offer a couple of days ago. I hope you get the spot!!!
