ringo Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Hi, is anyone here applying a degree at the history faculty? I sent in my application in early November and it's still under review by the department..soooo anxious!!
glycoprotein1 Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Hi @ringo, I applied for admission into the History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine program. Not exactly history, but closely related nonetheless! I submitted in early January and am currently under review by the degree committee. I think HPS applications skip the department phase (or go through very quickly) and head straight to the under review by degree committee phase, so I'm in essentially the same place as you. Best of luck!

sammichaelgeorge Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 Hello all, I have been given an offer to study an MPhil in American history. I have a quick question regarding my research proposal- must it be what I ultimately pursue at Cambridge? Since my submission, my interests within the field have changed a bit, and I would like to pursue a new potential dissertation topic (within American History, of course).

And not at all. They understand that interests change and evolve with time. Just make sure when you get there you tell your supervisor(s) that you're going to rework your topic. Would help if you can get a fresh proposal drafted by october. Many people in my cohort changed their dissertation topics, including myself, so I don't think it should be an issue.
