    Fordham

    There seem to be very few Fordham people on this forum, so i thought if i introduced myself i might scare a few out of hiding. I'll be starting in the fall in the Medieval studies MA program. I live in the mid-hudson river region, so i will be commuting down. Does anyone have some useful advice for new Fordham grads?
  2. I'm still waiting for Fordham and Western Michigan, has anyone heard? I saw a post last month for Fordham on the results page, but nothing since.
  3. The research and responses that i have gotten over the last few years have led me to believe that it is easier to get into history PhD programs if you already have grad experience, or have something published. I have worked on a new language but as i am a full time teach don't have time for grad classes. I am presenting at Kalamazoo this year, which seems to have helped my applications this time around
  4. I was interested in UMASS because i graduated from Smith, and as the other 4 colleges dont have grad programs i was hoping to work with them any way. I have changed my thoughts on this however and am not applying.
  5. I am applying for masters programs in medieval studies. I have already been accepted at the University Bristol but because british universities don't offer funding i am wondering about ways to fund the program. Does anyone have any suggestions apart from the fulbright for scholarships and aid? Thanks!
  6. This is round 2.5 for me. I applied for the 07-08 year for a PhD in medieval history. I had no idea what i was doing and as a consequence had a terrible SoP and applied to only 4 schools, all ivy. Silly silly history girl. Last year i applied only to NYU and didn't change anything about my application because of sheer apathy. THis summer i have been working tirelessly on a new SoP and i am set for a fight! Only applying to one PhD program and about 6 MAs. Good luck everyone, and remember to have a backup plan!
  7. Is anyone still waiting for NYU to send letters? Specifically History PHD?
