The Classics Program at Hunter College, City University of New York (CUNY), advertises its graduate programs in Latin education. These programs combine courses and mentoring in the vibrant environs of New York City. They aim to foster the ability to make Latin compelling to a diverse population of middle and high school students. Both programs lead to certification in New York State. Applications are accepted in both the Fall and the Spring. The deadline for applications to start in Fall 2024 is March 15th, 2024, but consideration may be made for later applications. A number of tuition fellowships will be available.

Below are the current programs. We anticipate some changes in these programs that will require fewer credits.

1) MA in Adolescent Education, Grades 7-12 – Latin
A 49 to 50-credit course sequence in Latin, Classics, and Education that prepares students to teach Latin in grades 7-12. This program is run jointly by the Classics Program in the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education.
