<p>Once again, sorry to post for the millionth time but I'm really having trouble. I had been planning on applying to penn state but I highly doubt that they will give me any scholarships/aid so I'm looking for private schools with more opportunities to reduce the cost. If I don't find a private school that interests me, then I'll stick with penn state. I've looked into Gonzaga, but other than that I'm not sure - are there any private schools with a journalism program that I should be aware of?</p>
