@sacklunch thank you very much for your advice!

@Melian4, thank you very much for your advice!

Guys, thank you so much for your advice! Regardless of the fact of taking 2 additional years of classes, I am wondering whether I would have a better chance of finding a teaching position in the US...

Thank you so much for your answer, that was exactly my question. I think that it's slightly easier to find a teaching position in the US these days, but I'm not sure. I should probably ask my professors, they probably know the job market better.

Thank you guys, I know Oxford is great, but I am wondering whether I would have more chances of finding a teaching position in the US after my Ph.D. if I go to Stanford....

Hi everybody, I have been admitted to Stanford and Oxford for a Ph.D. in History and I am really torn between the 2 universities... any advice? I am Italian, so Oxford would be "closer" to home, family and friends, but I have always been dreaming of studying in the US. The British program is shorter (3 years), while the American is a 5-year program. I would have funding in both cases, so money is not an issue. Both universities are excellent, Oxford is higher in the History rankings, but I don't know if that means anything... Thank you in advance for any information you can provide me with to help me make a choice!
