History M.A.

The History Department maintains a small, selective graduate program leading to the master’s degree in history. Our faculty are distinguished both as active scholars and as engaged teachers, and our graduate program is based on close mentoring relationships between faculty and graduate students. The department aims to keep the program at a size that best supports students’ individual curricular and career goals: approximately 10-12 students are admitted each year.

In response to ongoing COVID-related challenges faced by applicants, the History MA program has extended its deadline for application to March 1, and has waived the requirement for GRE scores for 2022.
