Admission to graduate work in History is granted by the Graduate School to applicants who both meet the general requirements of the Graduate School and are selected for admission by the Department of History. The following qualifications are normally required for admission to graduate study:
We recognize that not every applicant will possess all of these qualifications and that in some cases other coursework or personal experience may make it possible for us to be flexible.
The deadline for filing of applications for admission and financial aid is December 1. Incomplete applications may provide us with an inadequate basis for a positive decision. Materials received after December 1 may not be your file in time to be considered.
Nearly all admission decisions are made by early February for students planning to enroll in the fall, including awards of teaching assistantships and fellowships.
