Transcript: We require a copy of your transcript to be uploaded within our online application. In addition, we require all transcripts from colleges and/or universities attended that count toward any degree (beyond high school). A college senior should submit an official report of work completed in the first semester of the senior year as soon as it is available. All transcripts must be in English or an official translation. If you are admitted and decide to enroll, we will ask for an official copy at that time. Curriculum Vitae: We require the most up to date resume or CV for all applicants. Personal Statement: Write an essay explaining why you want to study science journalism. Include your personal experiences, what you expect to be doing professionally five years from now, what you expect from a career in the field, why you chose the BU College of Communication and how you expect your studies to help you in achieving your goals. Limited to 750 words. Recommendation Letter: We require three letters of recommendation written by people who know you well, and who can speak to your academic and/or professional backgrounds. These letters of recommendation must be sent online via our application service. We do not accept e-mailed, faxed, or mailed letters of recommendation. Periodicals: Discuss any websites, magazines, blogs, newspapers or other periodicals that you read regularly. What do you think of them? What is your favorite book, and who is your favorite author? How has she/he influenced your life and future plans? In a separate section, please include what social media you use (if any), and how you could apply that medium to your future profession. Video: All international students (non-US citizens) must submit a one to three-minute video. State your name and your intended degree program. Answer each of the following questions: 1. How do you plan to advance your community as a result of your study in the field of communication? 2. Discuss a significant person in your life and describe the ways in which you have been influenced (positively/negatively and why). 3. If you were to describe where you grew up to someone who hadn’t visited there before, what would you highlight? How to add your International Student Video to the application? Please speak directly into the camera, without reading from a script and do not use video editing or sound voiceover software. The video must be in your own words. Please post your video on a video hosting website, Vimeo. We prefer if you do not use a password to protect your video. If you must use a password, please use terrier2018. International students’ applications cannot be reviewed without this video.
