Longtime lurker here, writing to ask if people know anything about the UChicago MAPH? I'm trying to decide between that and UCL's MA in English Linguistics and it just feels like apples and oranges... -
I'm hoping to get into a top-tier PhD program in English next year. I want to get an MA that will better my chances. I'm deciding between Chicago's MA in the Humanities and UCL's English Linguistics MA (which is within their English department). -UChicago gave me a scholarship, so while it's still more expensive for me than UCL, the difference isn't huge. Both are 1-year programs. -I'd much rather live in London than Chicago. I'm also drawn to the Linguistics focus of the UCL degree. BUT I don't want to choose UCL if PhD admissions committees in the U.S. will see it as far less prestigious. Is UCL less likely to look good on a PhD application?
