Hello every one, I am new here. I am currently a junior student majoring in advertisement, but I have been thinking about applying for art history programs for long (prefer Greek/Roman Art, or Ranaissance, Baroque). So I registered some public elective courses in the related field, like the History of Chinese Gardens, Visual Art, etc.
As I was looking around in the forum, I saw someone applying for the 18 Fall says that he was rejected probably because he barely took upper division courses, despite that he has 2-3 years of working experience in a museum. This makes me feel more worried about myself. I am also learning online, so I wonder whether the online courses can do any help in explaining my passion or eligibility.
As to the GRE, I do not specifically worry about it. But I doubt to what extent will it help me? Say that I get V165, AW4.5 or 5, will this score greatly improves my chance of being accepted by a comparably good program?
Thanks for your help!
