Journalism Major in California?
358832
I went to San Francisco State University for a BA in journalism (class of 2004). I LOVED the program there. You can do newspaper, magazine or online. USC is supposedly great. Berkley is good, but they only have journalism as a grad program. Long Beach and Northridge are also considered good J-schools in CA.

A communications degree would probably be preferred, especially a focus on Broadcast Communications (see Connecticut School of Broadcasting).  However, with Satellite feeds taking over most stations, it may become harder and harder to get on the air.

Editing what?  Movies?  Screen plays?  Books?  If you want to edit the written word, I agree that English/Journalism is best.  If you're looking at movies, the you want to co into Communications & Computer Science if your college doesn't have a multi-media major available.

Change majors!!! I come from a good university. I don't think that's something useful. I had a lot of friends in journalism. It was fun, we went to see plays, student movies, their classes were watching movies, I would join the class. But come on, what can you do with it? All my friends graduated have jobs such as working on a printshop, waiting tables, telemarketing. You could hardly call those jobs for college graduates. I know it's fun, but why would you want to spend 60% of your career looking for work.

Your best option would be a degree in Communications or Journalism.  Look for a four-year program from an accredited university, preferably one that will offer you a Co-op placement (where you work and get paid at a real magazine during the summer).  You'll also want to look for opportunities to showcase your writing skills, from writing for the local newspaper to publishing an intelligent blog.

I suggest you talk to an advisor.  You can take some of the requirements at your community college, but you have to make sure that the credits will transfer.  Definitely talk to an advisor though and you will need to complete those courses and take a standardized test.  You could also ask your brother for some advice.\n\nAnd I don't think that majoring in communications has set you back too much.  You may need to do another year of undergrad and take some courses over the summer so you don't overload yourself, but you can do it.

I assume you mean college campus. It gives students real-world experience with every possible aspect of running a newspaper. There are reporters, editors, designers, salespeople, and just about everything else a regular paper has.\n\nVery few newspapers will hire a recent grad without some experience on a college paper.

What track are you on? I'm Communication, writing track (journalism) double with poli sci and so I plan on being a journalist... if you're on a different track go with logical careers there... your career counciling center should help, Grad school is always a good option as well... not knowing you personally I cant be of any more help

The prior response from JetGirly is "spot on" - let me add a few practical considerations.\n\nExcept for a handful of institutions, colleges are in competition for students. They want you to go to their school. They obviously will have consideration for the applicants with a combination of the highest grades/GPA/"something to enhance the college" mix, but you don't have to worry about there being some mandated "we have too many RTF students so let's cut back" directive from on high.\n\nI ran a search on usnews.com of colleges in California with Film majors - it came to 28.  7 are UC and 2 are Cal State branches. \n\nYou can go to the individual websites and look at their admissions profiles to see which is the best fit for you. Or, you can sign up for the US News premium service [I think it is $14.95 for a year], plug in your personal information [SAT, GPA, major desired, distance from home, scholarship fund available, and so forth] and let their system make some suggestions. You might be pleasantly surprised.\n\nGood luck to you - this is an exciting time of life for you\n\nPS "RTF" is radio-TV-film

I've heard UCLA has a good program; one of the Marine Science Academy teachers at my old school took a program there. But also UC Santa Barbara, since it has the additional benefit of being right next to a beach. Also UC San Diego, I think.
