The Department of Classics at Case Western Reserve University invites applications to its Graduate Certificate Program. Our classics post-bac—Ohio’s first—offers students a bridge to full-fledged graduate study in classics and related humanities disciplines by solidifying and increasing their command of Greek and Latin.
We give post-bac students:
- training in Greek and Latin, enabling them to read ancient texts at an advanced level
- the advising they need to gain admittance into MA and PhD programs in classics, philosophy, art history, Medieval studies and more.
While most individuals will use this certificate as a stepping stone for graduate school, we also encourage individuals to pursue our certificate simply as a means of enriching their lives.
Students seeking admittance to the post-bac program will need to have completed a bachelor’s degree and have a strong academic record with at least one year of college-level Greek or Latin. The post-bac application requires an application form, transcript(s) from all universities attended, a personal statement, and two letters of reference. GRE scores are not required. The electronic application and all materials are due on or before April 20, 2015.
More information about the program and an application can be found at here. Any further inquiries should be directed to: Dr. Rachel Sternberg, 216-368-2251 or rachel.sternberg@case.edu.
