Admission requirements

Please see the general statement of admission requirements for all programs.

Applicants must submit evidence that they are able to perform graduate work at a high level of competence. Graduate Record Examination scores should be submitted if available.

Applicants interested in history will normally be expected to have maintained a 3.0 cumulative average in history courses as undergraduates. Applications from persons who did not major in history as undergraduates will be considered, but such persons, if admitted, may be asked to pursue a program of reading or course work designed to remedy any deficiencies in their preparation for graduate study.
