medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Interestingly, the OP is just down the street from the MA in Medieval Studies from WMU's Medieval Institute.....
For other ideas, you might check the CARA website http://acmrs.org/web_pages/online_resources/online_resources_cara.html

> I have a senior history
> major concentrating on Medieval Studies who has high hopes
> for getting a PhD at a good university and working in our
> privileged profession. However, I don’t think he’s ready
> yet for the Ivies (he just won’t get in for another
> thing). His Latin is imprecise and his writing is uneven.
> His preliminary GRE was mediocre. But he works very hard, he
> speaks well, and has great determination…qualities in the
> long run that will serve him well. It was suggested to me
> that a good master’s program with a record of sending its
> more successful students on to the Ivies or equivalents
> would be a good possibility.
> However,
> looking around at various sources, I don’t see a plethora
> of such programs: Toronto,, Chicago’s MA in humanities
> seem the best of the lot. Are there others out there that
> are of this level with a good record of placing their
> students? Is there another route I might recommend to him?
> This is really an extraordinarily promising student, but he
> needs more time and competition and experience. I would
> welcome any suggestions from the list.
