Programs and Admissions
The goal of the School of Communication is to create a learning community that serves students and alumni throughout their lives. Many of our alumni started as "cherubs" in our National High School Summer Institute, going on to earn undergraduate and later graduate or professional degrees. New continuing education programs will provide postgraduate education and help realize the goal of lifelong learning.
The School offers outstanding undergraduate programs in every department as well as interdepartmental programs.
