Upper-level Program Application Form
All classes at the Latin/Greek Institute are held in the CUNY Graduate Center in Midtown Manhattan, at 365 Fifth Avenue. While studying at the LGI, students are enrolled for the summer at Brooklyn College and receive Brooklyn College credits.
Four steps are required for successful enrollment in the Latin/Greek Institute:
- You must submit an application directly to the Latin/Greek Institute, with accompanying transcripts and a letter of recommendation. Have transcripts from every college/university attended sent directly to the office*; college freshmen and sophomores, and those who have never attended college must also send high school transcripts.
- You must have a letter of recommendation sent under separate cover directly to the Latin/Greek Institute. The letter should address your command of the language and your seriousness of purpose as well as your ability to thrive in a challenging and fast-paced environment. Your recommender will be notified to submit a letter on your behalf. Please follow up with your recommender.
- You must also complete a brief diagnostic exercise. We will contact you after the application deadline to make arrangements for the exercise. After your diagnostic is complete, we may reach out to you for further discussion of your diagnostic and application.
- Once you receive notification of your acceptance to the Latin/Greek Institute, you must register with and pay tuition to Brooklyn College, using the CUNYfirst online system. Instructions will be provided. Proof of tuition paid in full must be presented to the LGI before the first day of class.
