To get started, you need to first complete and submit an online pre-registration form. Applications will reopen again on 8 August 2023.
Students will complete their study of Latin grammar and vocabulary, and read passages of continuous prose and verse from a variety of Latin authors with a view to acquiring fluency in the reading of unadapted Latin texts. The course also incorporates a study of the basics of ancient Roman culture and history through source material in the original Latin. The textbook is Latin via Ovid (Norma W.
