Hi, I’m a journalism major planning to apply to Emerson RD in just a few days. The question I’m referring to in this ask is “What influenced you to select your major/if undecided what attracted you to Emerson’s programs.” (100-200)
While I already had a draft of this question finished that focuses on journalism alone, (mainly informing the public to bring justice to the voiceless sort of thing) something else that I am genuinely interested in is video game journalism, specifically eSports. Emerson has a lot of programs dedicated to eSports and this definitely influenced my decision to apply, but would writing about the intertwining of two passions be a good idea? How much would the admissions counselors be expected to be familiar with this sort of thing? Or would it be better to keep it to “one topic” when considering the word limit?
Thanks for any and all help.
