Graduate journalism application

<p>Hey
I'm new to this site, so this might be a vague question, but I'm English and want to come to the US for grad school. My biggest goal in life is to be head of communications for a UN body, but obviously I've got to start small!</p>

<p>I have been advised to look into taking a journalism/communications degree.</p>

<p>I can only afford a one year course, I'm predicted a good 2:1 which MAYBE like 3.5/6???? </p>

<p>The course I'm most interested in is the one at Columbia University, but obviously that's insanely hard to get in to.</p>

<p>How well regarded is USC-Annenburg school of communications? Even if you haven't gone there have you even heard of them? </p>

<p>Does anybody else have any ideas? Ideally (because of easier flight connections to the UK) I would be looking at being either on the East or West Coast, or Chicago(northwestern) area. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Ellie</p>
