Are you or someone you know thinking about applying for admission to the University of Mississippi School of Journalism and New Media?
On July 1, we encourage you to begin the application process.
Students will apply online at https://admissions.olemiss.edu/
It’s a simple process. Here are the steps:
- Students apply online, pay the application fee, or submit an ACT/SAT fee waiver.
- They must supply transcripts from high school and/or all colleges they have attended.
- While the university is currently considered test optional, students are encouraged to submit ACT and/or SAT scores for consideration for some scholarships and placement in some courses.
- Once all needed documents are received, the Admissions Office will communicate the admissions decision to the student.
Jennifer Simmons, former assistant dean of the School of Journalism and New Media, said she encourages students to apply even if they are unsure if they plan to attend.
“Students who apply to the UM School of Journalism and New Media will get hands-on, real-world experiences in their major courses that they can carry forth into the workforce,” Simmons said.
Fun classes await.
“There are opportunities to become involved with study abroad, internships, HottyToddy.com, the Student Media Center, and UM Athletics opportunities the first year,” Simmons said.
Students who attend other schools may wait until they are upperclassmen to be considered for similar opportunities.
Simmons said students can become involved in activities their freshman year that could catapult them into the careers of their dreams when they graduate.
