A Chronicle

I'm a senior to graduate in May with a BA in Classical Studies. This blog will record my aspiration to become a classicist; it will share advice and things I've learned along the way during my undergrad years, as well as my current progress applying to graduate schools for Classics. My eventual goal is to obtain a PhD.

Admittedly the field is small - however, I hope that I might draw other aspiring classicists to this site. Perhaps undergrads who are unsure whether to choose Classics as a major, or those who are looking to grad school and want to hear from someone who has been through the experience of applying. Or indeed, those who are already in the field, who seek a voice on the web.

Either way, regardless of this site's current or future readership, I am here to record my experiences and observations on the field of Classics going into the 21st century. I seek to enter that field.
