Vanderbilt had their interviews earlier this week and I believe narrowed it down to nine folks, one in Religion Department American Subfield. PM me for more details, but I'm also interested in your encounter with Stanford! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I believe Vanderbilt is only accepting one Historical Studies student this round and it'll be someone in Reformation, so that means it'll go to Paul Lim for "deciding" who gets it. I don't know if that's specifically the tract you applied for but given your sig, I assumed so. Sometimes they'll take a second student in the field if funding permits but that's sporadic. I applied to Historical Studies but I focus on American Religious History. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notre Dame, Loyola Chicago, Fordham, UT, Emory, Boston University, and Harvard. I applied to a mix of programs since I'm interested in second temple literature, NT, and apostolic writings.

I don't know about the School of Theology, but the GSAS religious studies tracks appear to notify very late in February/early March (based on most of the results).

Marcion Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Someone got into Stanford... Granted, into the modern religious thought, ethics & philosophy program. But I am guessing it means the Stanford results should be released soon. *stress* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No news from UVA for me as well. Pretty sure first round decisions for UVA have been finalized by now. UVA is in extra high demand for religious studies right now--especially their TEC program--so the competition is going to be rough =[ I hope to at least get waitlisted.

UVa has rolling admissions, but if you aren't waitlisted, chances are it's a no. Last year, I emailed the Grad coordinator in early March to learn I had been rejected. I got the official rejection Apr 4th. Edited February 12, 2017 by the.waiting.game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably do the same come March just to be able to officially cross it off the list. the.waiting.game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe), so I already knew. Still wanted the official answer though. Good luck on the WL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyMagic Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Has anyone heard back from U of Chicago (Divinity)? One of my friends at Chicago informed me that the committees should have made their decisions by now...anyone applied to Chicago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menge Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 Out of curiosity, does anyone know anything about Columbia or UPenn admissions? Do they interview for all subfields, etc. etc.? I don't see either of these mentioned often, and result data is pretty sparse as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fairly certain that interviews depend for each subfield at Columbia. That's the word on the street anyway. South Asian Religions definitely interviews. Philosophy of Religion--I don't think so, but I may be wrong about that one. menge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
