<p>I'm looking into Celtic Studies, and I was curious whether anyone else has looked into this. I'm only familiar with the program at Berkeley, but I've been trying to find other American undergraduate institutions that offer it.</p>
<p>Anyone know of any off-hand?</p>
<p>(Emphasis on American. I know that a lot of UK universities have the program, but as far as I know it would be extremely difficult for me to transfer there and afford to attend.)</p>
<p>If you are in Celtic Studies, care to share your experience?</p>
<p>Notre Dame has Irish language courses and some Celtic courses</p>
<p>You could try checking out some Catholic universities or Bostonian universities--basically places where there are a lot of Scottish/Irish/Welsh/etc people.</p>
<p>You'll have some difficulties finding lots of college that offer more than a few classes in it. I find this an interesting area of study and much like you would expect American Studies at an American Univesity, a lot more UK universities offer this program. :p</p>
<p>Come to Ireland! You know you want to :)
Seriously, if you want to do Celtic Studies, it's your best option.
<a href="http://www.ucd.ie%5B/url%5D">http://www.ucd.ie</a> Best college in the country for it... though I'm biased!
Tuition is 12,300 a year for internationals, but the Celtic Studies degree is only 3 years long.</p>
<p>As far as I can tell, warbler, Harvard's program -- the proper major, that is, instead of assorted classes -- is graduate only.</p>
<p>cmaher, that's an interesting thought. I hadn't made that connection, but it makes sense. Problem is that I probably wouldn't be a good fit for a Catholic school. Will look at other Boston schools.</p>
<p>celebrian25 -- I know! I was expecting this. I've done quite a few searches, and I always come up with a significant number of UK universities and very few American programs.</p>
<p>rainbow kirby: Believe me, I would love nothing more than going to Dublin to study this. It really makes sense. However, I really can't afford 12,300 a year (I could stretch if I really felt I needed it, but I'm not sure it's worth so much debt for a basically useless degree) and I don't think Irish universities are very transfer friendly. I already have a year of university study under my belt, and I'm going to have a year of community college study when I'll be entering next fall. I may look into other Irish universities for graduate studies, but I think I'm SOL for undergrad there.</p>
<p>That seems to be the general consensus on this topic anyways -- SOL for undergrad. ;) Not that I have a problem going to Berkeley!</p>
