Middlebury MA and other options

[hildewijch]

Does anyone here have experience with Middlebury's MA programs? Any idea what kind of funding they tend to offer?

Alternatively - are there any decent MA language & lit programs (I would be interested primarily in German or Russian), where one does not have to have the equivalent of a BA in said language?

I don't know if this info is to late for it to be useful. However.... I just finished my Masters at Middlebury. I attended a language program for two summers and went abroad for a year. They were very generous with summer funding but I had to get loans for the time abroad. I don't know if this is the case with everyone, or if it is the same at each language school, but I do think it's generally easier to get summer funding.

As for your other question, I'm not sure but, at least with my experience at Middlebury, if you show graduate-level proficiency in the language you want to study, that's really what they want.
