any majors similar to communications?

<p>i was a comm major hoping to transfer to ucla...but now i realized how competitive is so i want to switch majors...but there's nothing else im interested in. comm is really my passion.</p>

<p>are there any majors related to it? and please no saying, stick to this major if you love it because im a 3.6 now and will most definitely get rejected :(</p>

<p>There is Rhetoric at Berkeley.</p>

<p>Media Studies would be more appropriate than Rhetoric.</p>

<p>The Comm program at UCLA involves a lot of Sociology and Psychology courses. If you KNOW that you really want to get into a media/entertainment related field, I would apply to other schools. Comm at UCSB/UCSD and Media Studies at Berkeley. I can guarantee that you won’t get into the program at UCLA with a 3.6. I wouldn’t even bother. If you are dead-set on UCLA, I would do Sociology or Psych and try to do as many internships in the entertainment business as humanly possible.</p>

<p>Then what the heck is Rhetoric?</p>

<p>“Linked by a common interest in the functions of discourse in all its forms, faculty and students engage the theoretical, historical, and cultural dimensions of interpretation and criticism, in fields as diverse as political theory, gender, law, media studies, philosophy, and literature.”</p>

<p>Rhetoric is one of the arts of using language as a means to persuade…</p>
