Transcript:
Official transcripts reflecting all undergraduate and postgraduate coursework to date. If your institution(s) provides official electronic transcripts, these can be sent directly from the registrar’s office to classics@wustl.edu. Hard copies sent via US Mail, including express, should be sent to to the mailing address on the Department website. For other carriers, please see note below.*
Personal Statement:
A personal statement expressing your goals in seeking a graduate degree in Classics, describing the background that qualifies you to do so, and the particular advantages you see in the program at Washington University. Reference to specific faculty members can help, but is not essential. The Admissions Committee is interested in applicants who (besides looking like a good fit for our program) show an understanding of what is entailed in graduate work and an ability to articulate his/her goals. We therefore recommend that you seek advice from instructors on crafting the personal statement.
Recommendation Letter:
Three letters of recommendation from current or past instructors acquainted with your accomplishments to date. Aim to assemble a combination of recommenders who can, between them, describe your work in the ancient languages and in research in Classics or a related field. Letters must be uploaded to the application website; recommenders who have problems with the site may contact us at classics@wustl.edu for help.
Writing Sample:
A scholarly writing sample of ca. 15 pages or more, representing your work on a topic in Classics or a related field. The ideal submission makes use of both secondary sources and ancient text(s) in the original. If you do not have a single piece of writing that meets all these criteria, you may submit two shorter papers that meet individual criteria.
