<p>What are some journalism programs with small class sizes that allow for more individual attention and training for your skills and writing? Just wondering to see if there's a surprising school I haven't considered in my search so far. Thanks</p>
<p>Check out Ithaca College - the Parks School of Communication is very impressive.</p>
<p>If your stats and passion are up to it, look at the Honors Tutorial College program at the Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University, one of the top ten journalism programs in the US. The journalism school is great, but the HTC gives a very small program environment. And class size? How about just you and the professor for many classes in your major?</p>
<p>Unfortunately, HTC probably only accepts 3-5 journalism students a year, so the competition is unbelievable.</p>
<p>But take a look: Ohio</a> University: Honors Tutorial College
and
Ohio</a> University: Honors Tutorial College:Journalism</p>
<p>Oh, and I forgot to mention that is you have the gpa/scores to get into HTC, you can probably get most of your tuition paid for.</p>
<p>the ohio program sounds pretty interesting and something I'll consider. Is it really just 3-5 students a year? The site only has GPA and SAT requirements for it. Thanks.</p>
<p>The HTC has about 200 students across all four years. The's 50 freshmen in the program. And spread across 25 majors, that's an average of only 2 students per major in the freshman class. Media Arts (was Telecommunications) and Journalism are two areas where they tend to accept more, just because they are so popular. But OU has a great journalism school, even without the HTC. And check out the automatic scholarships based on gpa/scores: The</a> Gateway Award Program: Ohio University Admissions</p>
<p>Beautiful campus also, and the university is known for the friendliness of its students (c<em>llegepr</em>wler.com)</p>
<p>Look at Medill at Northwestern.</p>
<p>Undergraduate size is remarkably small for a school with such widespread name recognition. Only about 160 or so in each graduation year (out of about 1900 undergrads from the university as a whole).</p>
<p>Most writing/production classes are limited to 12-16 students. Great individualized attention. The requirement that these classes be kept small coupled with the very low attrition rate accounts for the notorious difficulty of transferring in (even from Northwestern's other programs) after freshman year.</p>
