Where do students wind up after the Post-Bac program?

Of the students who come to us as Post-Bacs, about a third decide that graduate training in the field is not for them and go on to many different careers. About a third go into terminal master’s degree programs, either in professions like teaching or curatorial work or alternatively in academic fields like classical studies or philosophy as a further step in preparation for applications to Ph.D. programs. About a third are admitted to Ph.D. programs in classical studies, ancient history, linguistics, religious studies, and other related fields. The placements of the 2009 -2010 class are representative:

  • Cornell University
  • Princeton University
  • Stanford University
