What does a Post-Bac student’s schedule look like?
All Post-Bac students are required to take one Latin and one Greek course per semester. Most students take the Post-Bac seminars, which meet one, two, or three times per week for a total of 2-3 hours of class time. Some students, after consulting with the Post-Bac director, instead register for elementary or intermediate Latin and/or Greek. In addition, Post-Bac students are asked to keep Wednesday lunchtimes open for our noncredit proseminar series, in which faculty members and current graduate students meet with Post-Bac students to talk about their research, their path towards their current position, and give advice about graduate school and careers. Students are encouraged to attend as many outside lectures as possible; the Classical Studies department holds a weekly series on Thursday afternoons, and the Center for Ancient Studies has a Friday lunchtime series. Finally, some students opt to take extra class(es); see above.
