Receipt of the BA degree or the equivalent from a regionally accredited institution is a prerequisite for admission to the MA program. Applicants must have completed course work equivalent to a major in the target language or be able to demonstrate the equivalent level of linguistic proficiency. The GRE is not required.
All graduate students (regardless of academic track or program option) must successfully complete an initial 6-week graduate summer session on either the Vermont or California campus before establishing their candidacy for the MA degree.
The MA degree requires successful completion of 12 course units. Middlebury awards one unit of graduate credit (equivalent to three semester hours) for each graduate course. The normal course load is 3 course units per summer.
You may enroll in courses in one MA program only. You are, however, welcome to apply to more than one program; to do so, you must submit a complete application packet for each program (including a separate application fee).
Qualified students who would like to take courses for professional development but do not intend to earn an MA are also welcome to apply.
