I'm officially going to Syracuse. As you say, tough to go wrong with the top programs in the country, so I am ok not going to Medill. Syracuse's program is much more up my alley and closer to family. And cheaper!! The programs couldn't be more different though so if you're choosing amongst a group of top schools like I was it's best to choose the program you think is the best fit I think. Good alumni all around at these places. Have fun at Medill, I visited recently and it was great. Definitely less broadcast going on there, but maybe a more well-rounded journalism education, kind of depends what you're looking for, and Evanston is really nice. I'm coming from NYC so I actually want the opposite, small city is fine for me now! Good luck at Medill if that's what you choose, I'm sure you'll love it.

Since getting accepted a lot of info has come in about how to apply for assistantships and what is available

Just for clarification, I was accepted to Medill for summer term, so I heard about admission before those trying for fall.... I am heavily heavily leaning towards Newhouse (Syracuse), almost 100%

Medill called me in February

thanks! Nope not a peep about funding...

got into all 4 of my schools -- Medill, Syracuse, Mizzou, Arizona State -- no funding decisions yet -- decisions!

i got an acceptance email on friday to mizzou

Hi everyone, I am applying to Masters programs in journalism -- I found out a few weeks ago I got into Northwestern, and they have sent me all the resources I need to apply for financial aid. But I am still waiting to hear from a few others and I'm not sure where I am going to go -- so my question is -- should I go ahead and apply for financial aid at Northwestern, or do I need to wait to hear from everywhere to go through that process? Are there complications which can arise from getting financial aid offers (including loans, indeed I bet it will be mostly loans) from multiple schools? thanks!

I also heard on 2/14 by phone haven't heard anything about the program changing...

Hi everyone! I'm going back to school for Broadcast Journalism! I applied to Mizzou, Medill, SU Newhouse, and Arizona State I found out last week I got into Medill! SU has always been my first choice becuase of broadcasting-specific reputation (and sports reputation) as well as close to where I grew up, but now that I am into Medill I feel Iike am going to be very torn if I get accepted into Newhouse. Medill seems to have such a prestige that I feel like it might be the better choice for getting a job afterwards -- but at the same time I have an inkling Newhouse's program could be a better fit for me because it's more technical and has a bit more structure. But Medill's reputation is amazing and I think I could get an amazing education there too -- and probably a better overall journalism education, with maybe not quite as much broadcast support, but I just don't know! of course I havent gotten into SU yet but im already sweating the choice for some reason, any opinions are most welcome! btw, I havent heard a peep from Mizzou either as I read in earlier posts, and haven't heard from Arizona either although now that I'm into Medill I think both those options are out anyways
