Thank you! I'm a working magazine journalist with an editorial staff position on a monthly city/regional magazine. My bachelor's is also in journalism. I didn't apply anywhere else.

Made it!

Got the call Monday night.

I have not heard back from the school since the interview. Anyone else? I believe the school said that selected applicants would begin receiving notices around mid-February.

I would assume that the ones interviewed made it past the first cut.

Good luck! Hope to see you there in the fall.

Had the interview and writing test last week. It's pretty straightforward. They'll likely ask you why you want to go to Berkeley, why now, what you hope to do with your degree, what your media consumption looks like. The writing test is also basic. They give you hypothetical situations and ask you to describe what you would do. My best advice is to know yourself, be yourself, and have confidence. Hope that helps!
