MA History at University of Miami

Entry requirements

We are looking for applicants with a record of outstanding achievement and evidence of potential success in graduate studies, attributes which can be measured in various ways such as grades, recommendations, written work, and test scores. Applicants must meet the admissions requirements set by both the graduate school, which are listed in its materials, and the department of history. Because one of the strengths of our program is a close working relationship between faculty members and students, we cannot always accept qualified applicants when no one in the department can provide the guidance they need in their area of interest. Applicants should explore the listing of faculty on our website and contact the DGS or relevant faculty members if they have any questions. Application Requirements. A completed application form in SLATE. A completed financial aid application, if seeking aid. Three letters of recommendation, preferably from applicant’s former professors. Recent Graduate Record Examination scores on the General Test. TOEFL scores (for international students).
