The most important elements of the application file for the review process are:
--The personal statement which details the students interest in pursuing graduate study in History.
- The applicant's academic record, with special emphasis on their performance in history and related subjects.
- Recommendation letters from two or three faculty mentors who can speak to the applicant's potential for graduate work in the discipline. One of these letters may come from a former employer or non-academic mentor if they can speak to related skill sets the applicant may possess.
- GRE scores are required, though they are rarely the determining element in an application file. A strong performance on the Verbal section of the GRE is what is most important.
- The ability to write clearly and intelligently as demonstrated by a relevant writing sample, perhaps drawn from a seminar or research paper completed for a recent course, or a chapter or section of a thesis. Please limit submissions to about twenty pages maximum (excluding notes and bibliography). **All materials are to be uploaded on the online application.
*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
86% of grads & 95.4% of undergrads of 2022 were employed, in continuing education or pursuing military or volunteer service 6 months after graduation.
