Back in November I had the pleasure of meeting a lady from Pittsburgh Theological Seminary (Pittsburgh, PA) and talking to her about seminary. I found out that the application deadline for Term III of 2010-2011 (February start) was looming and I better get my application in. The only problem was that if I was accepted, I only had 30 days to confirm. This meant I had to do ALL of my applications at once (even if I didn't plan to start until the Fall).
Well, I sent in the application and met with the same lady for an interview while I was at the college conference at Montreat. The interview went well but I felt that it was very stuffy and not nearly as personal and relaxed as my meeting with the Union representative. I found out that Pitts had a lot to offer outside of the Seminary, but they were lacking the local mission that I was looking for. Needless to say they went from being number one to needing a lot of thought.
Well, after two months of waiting, I heard back from PTS yesterday and I was accepted! Part of me is still very interested (I mean Mr. Rogers went there... who wouldn't want to go? lol) and I am doing some more research and will probably make a few phone calls. Unfortunately it is way too expensive for me to go visit, not to mention I have no time before the deadline to confirm.
Hm...
Now is the time to start weighing my options! I love that I have them though... accepted to both grad schools is a GREAT feeling! :)
