Any updates about their admission process?

Grad GPA is 4.0

Subfield: political theory

Working for PI In the dept

I got an e-mail from Prof. Durrett. The e-mail said that "we begin with about 30 applicants in probability and narrowed the list to a handful, but that is still more than we can admit. Our meeting to decide on the admit list is Monday January 25."

4.0 grad GPA: MA (Philosophy) and MTS (Duke Divinity). I've been working in the church for 7 years, and my research interests are perhaps better suited to the ThD anyway. Still waiting to hear back on that one. Also, I decided to apply last minute and I didn't submit GRE scores (they weren't required because of COVID); perhaps my Statement could have been better etc.

Generic and short email stating there were a lot of applicants. Current grad student, 3.75 GPA, extensive Hebrew and Greek, and RA position.

Also interviewed for the ThD. Truly, the Lord did this - Ps 16:6

I got the email to check out their website.

so do you think if i haven't gotten an interview it's a rejection?
