<p>Hey everyone!</p>

<p>I'm a high school senior in Northern California, and right now I'm thinking about becoming an English major. So far my main goal is to study writing and photography and work as a freelance writer/photographer. I've won numerous awards in both subjects. I really want to go to Cal State East Bay since they literally have everything I want to study. </p>

<p>Does anyone have any comments on that school? Or suggestions on the best place to study English in California?</p>

<p>Most English programs are heavy into literature, criticism, and writing. Unless you’re very interested in literature and writing about literature, a better option would be journalism or communications. But if literature is your thing, you can’t go wrong with Cal, UCLA, Stanford & Pomona.</p>
