Communications/Media Studies Thread!

<p>I'm a Comm major and I applied to - and have yet to hear from - UCSD, UCSB, UCLA (Communication Studies), UCB (Media Studies) and USC.</p>

<p>I was just wondering what Comm majors' stats are like here in CC. </p>

<p>Also, has anyone applied for Media Studies in Cal? I dont think I've come
across one yet here. And would you happen to know what the average admit
gpa is like? I'm not really hopeful for UCLA anymore since the average admit gpa is 3.93 or something and I only have a 3.78
with 72 units done by this spring. Although I am already done with all the pre reqs
and IGETC. Sooo idk, what is Berkeley ave admit gpa like for this? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I’ve been accepted to UCSD Comm.</p>

<p>3.41
tag</p>

<p>I also applied to Cal as a Media Studies major, but I doubt I’ll get in. I’ve heard the avg admit is 3.7 so seems like you have a good shot! =) I applied to UCLA as a poli sci major.</p>

<p>@SMCguy I sure hope so. I’m wishing for the best for the both of us! I should’ve applied to UCLA with some other major! If only I knew a couple months back that the ave admit gpa was so high, I wouldn’t have had applied for it. :frowning: </p>

<p>If I don’t get in Cal or USC then I’m for sure going to UCSD. I just hope they notify me of my acceptance already since I still don’t have a school to go to until now. </p>

<p>Any other comm majors out there?</p>

<p>Hey Everyone.
I am a comms major as well.
Applied to UCLA, UCD, and UCB.
GPA:3.75
PRE REQ GPA: 4.0</p>

<p>unfortuantely I applied to Berkeley as a Rhetoric major, but I am hoping to switch to Media Studies if I get admitted. Anyone know how difficult that is? I feel pretty like my situation is pretty hopeless for UCLA, but its worth a shot.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>I’ pretty hopeless too for UCLA but I’m wishing for some kind of a miracle still. Lol</p>

<p>hey im a comm major too! oh wait…im not. oh god @hellostranger didn’t i say I was gonna stay away from cc? hahahahah
on a serious note: i think you guys have shots at cal :slight_smile: and depending on ec strength, ucla as well.</p>

<p>^^ i knew you couldndt stay away from cc :stuck_out_tongue: </p>

<p>cal, possibly. UCLA? hmmm…i’m just expecting the worst but hoping for the best! :)</p>

<p>lol hellostranger I feel exactly the same way. Only one more month!<br>
Any other Coms majors out there?</p>

<p>im thinking about majoring in communication. </p>

<p>@anyone
what sort of career are u planning to get from this major?</p>

<p>I applied to UCLA Comm Studies and Berkeley Media Studies. My GPA is 4.0. I also have all the prereq’s for Psychology at Berkeley because I’m interested in that as well.</p>

<p>You’ll most likeley get in SofieJ, lucky!</p>

<p>I’m currently looking up the stats of people from previous years that have gotten in in this major. Not doing so well right now. I still have a lot to go through. Lol</p>

<p>I also applied as communication/media studies, but also business admin for some at Cal, UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, and UCI.</p>

<p>So, only one person has heard from any school so far regarding comm? I have yet to hear from any of the released schools (UCSD, UCSB). Having heard from no one only makes my wait for UCLA and Cal all the more intense.</p>

<p>BUMP!</p>

<p>there’s gotta be more communications majors -____-</p>

<p>I applied to UCD, UCSB, UCLA (Communication Major) and UCB (Media Major)
and haven’t heard back from any school</p>

<p>I have borderline GPA so I’m freaking out. Thanks for creating this thread :)</p>

<p>Mind posting your GPA/Stats?</p>

<p>I’ve been accepted to UCSD and UCSB with a comm major.
GPA: 3.2~
tag</p>

<p>Just curious, what are you guys planning on doing with this major? I am still not too sure…</p>

<p>Applied to UCLA for communications, business for Cal/USC/NYU. going to get an MBA or go to law school. Stats: 4.0, one prereq in progress (for ucla)</p>

<p>@nyc what are your stats? I still havent heard back from UCSD :frowning: </p>

<p>@lisc949 i’m planning to get
in to public relations/advertising so i chose communications as my major. Communications is a broad major so i can have more options with what field to specialize in upon graduating</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>@hellostranger57 did you do tag? I hope you hear soon!</p>

<p>I was thinking about marketing/advertising/public relations…but UCSD’s communication major doesn’t have any of that :frowning: so idk what to do…I think I am going to have to talk to my counselor or something.</p>

<p>^^ yeah i did tag. I just want an official acceptance so i can finally look in to housing or something. </p>

<p>But yeah, communications is versatile. It will cover those mentioned fields one way or the other.</p>
