USC Annenberg?

Went to a USC admissions talk and found out the acceptance rate to Annenberg (journalism/communication school) is around 12%, which is less than the general admission 16%. However, I once read a thread on here that talked about how less qualified people apply to Annenberg (jocks wanting to be sportscasters, etc), so therefore it’s easier to get in if you are a somewhat competitive applicant.

Any thoughts? Does this hold true?
