The BA/MA program is designed to allow undergraduates concentrating in Ancient Greek, Latin, or both to achieve advanced skills in language and critical methods by satisfying, in addition to undergraduate requirements, all requirements for the MA in Classics. The program prepares students either for the teaching of Latin or ancient Greek language, literature, and culture at the secondary level; or, if both ancient languages are studied, for the pursuit of a PhD in classics; or for advanced study in related humanistic fields.

For information on application and admission consult the Boston University College and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences admissions website.
