When do I apply?

The deadline for applications is January 1.

How do I apply?

Applications to the UNC-Chapel Hill Graduate School should be submitted via the online application. Individuals with special needs or internet access problems may request a paper application through the online application website or by calling the Graduate School at 919/966-2612.

In addition to the online application to be submitted to the UNC-Chapel Hill Graduate School, applicants to the graduate programs in art history must submit directly to the Department of Art a sample of their research and writing skills. Suggested submissions are an academic paper, an honors thesis, or a Master's thesis. The submitted copy will be returned only if a self-addressed, stamped envelope is included with the submission.

Preparation for Admission to the MA Program

An undergraduate degree in art history is highly recommended, but not required, for admission to the MA program. Students who do not have an undergraduate degree in art history should have 24 credit hours of course work in art history, archaeology, cultural anthropology, and/or aesthetics. Applicants will be admitted to the MA program unless they already hold an MA degree in art history. Only students who hold an MA in art history will be admitted to the PhD program.

Students who have completed an MA in art history at UNC-Chapel Hill who wish to go on for the PhD in art history must write a formal letter of application to the Art History Graduate Committee as soon as their MA Thesis has been signed and submitted for graduation.
