In 2007, 2008 and again in 2009, The Classical Journal requested information from all North American PhD and MA programs in the Classics about issues of interest to students applying for graduate work. Survey questions included typical incoming class-sizes and percentage of applicants accepted; recommended qualifications for “best consideration for admission”; funding; and number of PhDs and MAs produced in the last five years. The following programs responded to the survey. We urge you to take this information into account along with the departments’ official websites and materials as you plan your admission strategy.
