MA Programs in Renaissance Studies
As a fan of planning ahead, lists, and early modern Latin literature, I found myself searching for exciting graduate programs from the start of my undergraduate years.

Another program of potential interest is the University of Kentucky’s Certificate in Latin Studies, which I myself am pursuing online. This is perhaps one of the only courses in the United States that teaches Latin in Latin. The professors also make a point of reading Latin literature from the Early Modern period. In some modules they even focus exclusively on Latin of the Renaissance. The professors are absolutely amazing in respect to both their extensive knowledge and undeniable kindness.
