1).  Throughout your undergraduate career: Get to know some History faculty well—take their classes, visit them in office hours to discuss course materials and your future plans, impress them with your ability.

2).  No later than the spring before you apply: Let these faculty know several months before you apply that you’re interested in graduate school.  When you broach the subject, they are likely to provide some invaluable advice (e.g., programs to consider given your interests, faculty whose work aligns with yours, and so on).

You apply the year before you want to begin (e.g,, submit an application in Fall 2024 in order to start in Fall 2025).

History graduate programs have applications deadlines ranging from late fall to early winter.  Check the departmental websites of programs you are interested in.

The more prestigious a program the earlier the deadline, in general.

Our deadline is February 15th if you want to be considered for funding.
