Entry requirements

The Department of History offers the following graduate degrees: Master of Arts degree with fields of specialization in African, European, Latin American, and United States history and the Doctor of Philosophy degree with fields of specialization in African, European, Latin American, and United States history, or with a dual major which allows students to combine two minor fields to create their own major fields. Master of Arts: This degree serves to prepare students for admission to a Ph.D. program, for a teaching career in high school or community colleges, or for a career in government or business. The student must complete the thesis and make it available to readers 2 weeks before the oral examination, complete the application for the degree at the Office of the University Registrar before the deadline, and take the examination. The Department believes that normally no more than 4 se University-wide graduate admission (not specific to this programme): application through the UF graduate application; official GRE scores are required by most programmes (GMAT for MBA applicants), per programme; transcripts, a CV or resume and letters of recommendation where the programme requires them.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate applicants apply through the UF graduate school application on CollegeNET and pay a $30 non-refundable application fee; the Office of Admissions does not offer an application fee waiver. Deadlines vary by department. Most applicants must submit GRE scores.
