Notes:
The American School of Classical Studies at Athens, one of America’s most distinguished centers devoted to advanced teaching and research in the humanities, was founded in 1881 to provide American graduate students and scholars a base for their studies in the history and civilization of the Greek world. Today, 126 years later, it is still a teaching institution, providing graduate students a unique opportunity to study firsthand the sites and monuments of Greece. The School is also a superb resource for senior scholars pursuing research in fields ranging from antiquity to modern Greece, thanks to its internationally renowned libraries, the Blegen, dedicated to classical antiquity, and the Gennadius, which concentrates on the Greek world after the end of antiquity.

The School is open to qualified students and scholars at colleges or universities in the U.S. or Canada unless otherwise noted. The American School of Classical Studies at Athens does not discriminate on the basis of race, age, sex, sexual orientation, color, religion, national or ethnic origin, or disability when considering admission to any form of membership. A number of grants and fellowships are available.
