I think that 10k is if you’re Mormon.
Mizzou is a good journalism school. Email them to know their rules about applying as a freshman if you have fewer than 30 credits. Internationals’ deadline is Juy 1st I think (not April 1st, although the earlier you’re admitted to Mizzou, the earlier you can get into the school of journalism. You need a 29 on your ACT and/or a TOEFL 100 but you can retake it up to the June session.) Also it looks like they’ll consider you a freshman applicant if you only have fewer than 24 credits.
