The Museum Studies graduate certificate is available to any student currently pursuing a graduate degree at UF.

Applications are reviewed formally twice a year: November 1 for a Spring semester start, and March 1 for a Fall semester start. However, interested students may reach out at any time during the fall and spring semesters to discuss the curriculum.

Steps for Current UF Students:
Step 1: Submit your admissions packet for review by emailing your materials to museumstudies@arts.ufl.edu. Your packet should include your: 

• Statement of purpose

• Letter of support from your graduate committee chair; where this is not possible, a letter from the graduate advisor of your discipline is acceptable

• Unofficial transcript

• Current resume

Step 2: Complete the UF Formal Certificate Application

• Currently enrolled UF students, apply here.
  You do not pay any fee and you will use your GatorLink username and password to apply.

• Contact laurar@ufl.edu if you are an SA+AH grad student after you apply! 
  If you are a grad student in another UF department, after you apply the application system is pending until your home department 'refers' the online certificate application to the College of the Arts. In order for our office to know of your application, please request that your Graduate Coordinator 'refer' the application within the Admission system. (This would be the same person who approves graduate admissions.)

  • Please ask that they email graduate@arts.ufl.edu so we know it is ready for the online decision.

• Upon the Museum Studies Director’s decision, notification will be posted in the same online certificate application.

• Email graduate@arts.ufl.edu if you have any questions.
