Funded one-year programs as backups?

[Fiat]

Hi All, 

I am applying for PhD programs for the second time this Fall, but I am worried that I might not get into anywhere again. What should I do as my backup? Any good one year programs? I am also open to do a degree in art history or philosophy. Thanks y'all!

Your profile says you're at Yale, so I'd reach out to your advisor and/or a dean about securing funding for a STM. I don't know how prevalent they are, but I've had friends get one funded by being a research assistant or a GA'ship.

Outside of Yale, funded one year M* degrees are rare. Western Theological Seminary has often funded Th.M. students.
