Beyond that, classes depend on your sequence. Review the catalog carefully to learn your sequence requirements. When you arrive, you'll be assigned an adviser and given a more detailed class orientation. While in Washington, all students work for the Medill News Service, an accredited news service. Print students are assigned to write articles for one of the client newspapers that subscribe to the news service.
All students concentrate on localizing national stories for the service's subscribers.
This is a very popular program. As a result, the Medill administration sometimes must determine during which quarter students may go to Washington. Talk to your adviser if you are interested in participating in this program. If you have any questions not answered here, please look in the graduate catalog that you received with your application materials. That has the official information on Medill, including course descriptions, information on financial aid and an explanation of the school's academic standards.
