Can any Media Studies majors share their experiences at Cal?

<p>I will be transfering as a junior!! I have no info on MS at Cal.
I am struggling to decide between UCLA communication and Cal Media Studies..</p>

<p>Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Search for the past threads about the major.</p>

<p>Long story short: Go with UCLA if you are serious about the major. At Berkeley, the classes deal with theory more than practice. In addition, the major has very little reputation and support compared to UCLA’s department.</p>

<p>seriously, go to ucla for comm studies. i got accepted to comm studies as well at ucla. but i’m going to haas next year. i might go to usc if they allow we to take courses from both annenberg and marshall and double major in business/broadcast journalism</p>

<p>I am a senior majoring in sociology and media studies. Sparetire basically summed it up, but you can read more about how I feel about the major here:</p>
