    老师你好,我想咨询一下我本科是985大学哲学的,今年秋季要转专业去英国读一年的授课型的anthropology,雅思6.5(6),已经确定了杜伦大学,专业是cultural anthropology,偏研究方法方向。在英国毕业后我有机会申请到美国的人类学PhD吗?最好是有奖学金的那种,这样我需要什么条件才能申请上呢?我想提前了解,这样在英国这一年期间可以好好准备。

    Tulane University offers a strong Cultural Anthropology program, which emphasizes both ethnographic research and ethnohistory. Congratulations!

    In general, obtaining a Ph.D. position from a top U.S. Anthropology program is very difficult. This relates more to limited job opportunities offered to Ph.D. graduates than to applicants’ prior academic and research exposure.

    However, I believe that your chance to receive funding from at a U.S. Anthropology program remains high given your potential research in Cultural Anthropology that will be conducted at Tulane University.

    Certainly, strong academic records (evidenced with your potential GPA at Tulane), relevant publications, and a strong GRE score especially in the Verbal section, will significantly enhance your chance. In your case, a TOEFL/an IELTS score will be waived by some U.S. universities.

    Good luck to you!
