  1. A narrative statement of scholarly progress since entering the graduate program in History at UIUC . This statement should reflect on the students original ambitions when admitted; how these ambitions have changed as a result of coursework; accomplishments in courses; accomplishments outside of courses (e.g. conferences, reading-group participation etc.); and a look forward to the proposed preliminary fields and dissertation topic. The statement should be no longer than 3 double-spaced typed pages.
