<p>How does NU's School of Communication compare to USC's Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism? I've applied to both for their communications studies major, knowing both have good communication programs. How do the schools differ and which one is better in general?</p>
<p>Does anyone know?</p>
<p>I do not know about the differences between the two programs. I can say after touring both schools, my DD felt there was a BIG difference between the two universities.</p>
<p>The general consensus is that we have Northwestern, Syracuse, and Columbia as the top-3 journalism programs and then everybody else.</p>
<p>As for communications, it’s difficult to compare since different schools offer different curriculum and emphasis. Note that at Northwestern, journalism and communications are in two different schools.</p>
