AHist MA Programs with Professional Development Emphasis

[worldspinsmadlyon]

I am a recent graduate of a small LAC, who decided to take a gap year before applying to graduate school for the fall of 2010. I have worked in a gallery and interned in a small museum. With these experiences, I have decided that professionally, my main passion lies in the museum field. I am now trying to figure out what MA programs place the most emphasis on professional development, especially internship/fellowship placements. I really wish to achieve an MA in Art History, not in Museum Studies. Additionally, financial aid is an extremely important factor in my decision making process. I am considering schools in NYC, Boston, DC, California and Europe. I graduated with a 3.5, should receive decent recommendations, have written a thesis and have lectured at three collegiate symposiums. I have taken the GRES once, scoring a 610V and 580Q, but plan to take again in a few weeks. Any input would be extremely helpful! Thanks so much, in advance.

Check out Tufts. I believe their terminal degree is the MA and they offer funding. Lots of focus in museum work/art history. This was several years ago however, but sounds like it would be a great fit.
