Document Required:

  • Letter of Recommendation (LOR)

    University Specific

    Recommenders should preferably be able to speak to your general academic aptitude, including your reading, analytical, and writing skills.

  • Personal Statement

    University Specific

    A good statement will have something to say about these topics: why you want to earn a graduate degree in the concentration you have chosen; what your intellectual interests are; what your research interests are; whether you have any teaching experience and interest in teaching (TA applicants); whether there are particular faculty here with whom you would like to study. Explain your interest in the M.A. program and what special skills or experiences you may bring to it. Upload your personal statement in the designated upload area. Personal statements are typically 1-2 pages long.

  • Writing Sample

    University Specific

    Frequently our applicants submit college-level academic papers (10-15 pages), but that is not the only option. What we need to see is facility with writing and research in your area of proposed study, care with language, ability in interpretation, and clarity in exposition and argument. Ideally, your sample should demonstrate knowledge and abilities related to your proposed concentration.
