We require a PDF copy of transcripts from the undergraduate institution that awarded your bachelor's degree. Transcripts from other institutions are required if they include credits towards your bachelor’s degree that are not reflected on the same transcript that shows the completion of your degree. Request a copy of your transcripts, scan and upload the PDF document in the transcript section of the application. Hard copies will be required if admission is offered.

Recommendation Letter:
We prefer recommendations from professional journalists who know your work and can comment on your work ethic, reporting proficiency, and commitment to journalism.

You will be able to view the status of the receipt of your recommendations through your online account, but you will not be able to see the content of the letters. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
