Master of Arts in Medieval Studies

at University Of Toronto

• MA students must pass the Level One Medieval Latin examination upon arrival or else attain credit in MST1000Y (1.0 full-course equivalent [FCE]) in the first year of enrolment in the MA program.

• For the coursework option, students:
   

  • Who pass the Level One Latin examination upon arrival must successfully complete 3.0 FCEs.

  • Who do not pass the Level One Latin examination on arrival must successfully complete 4.0 FCEs (including MST1000Y).
     

• In the MA program, course training in Latin is given at two levels. All students are expected to arrive with knowledge equivalent to at least a first-year university course in Latin language. MST1000Y Medieval Latin I is the MA-level course. While this course is preparatory to the departmental Level One Latin examination, a pass in the course does not guarantee a pass of the departmental examination at the corresponding level. Advanced seminars are open to those MA students who have achieved a pass of the Level Two Latin examination.

• Applicants are admitted under the General Regulations of the School of Graduate Studies. Applicants must also satisfy the Centre for Medieval Studies' additional admission requirements stated below.

• An appropriate bachelor's degree from a recognized university with an average grade of at least a B+ in previous courses. Coursework in the medieval period must have formed part of the program.

• Applicants are required to have taken at least one full-year Latin introductory course with a grade of at least B+ or equivalent.
