For convenience, the FAQs are separated into 5 sections, which you can navigate between using the menu to the left. If you need more information after viewing these questions, contact JMC . The structure of our program centers around finding a balance between major classes and basic general education classes. All students will come out of our program with a traditional arts and sciences education, not just mass media experience. Students must complete 39 hours inside the major and 87 outside the major.
Students start their major classes the first semester they arrive on campus.
We feel it is very important to keep classes as small as possible. Introductory courses required by all majors are larger. Students have great flexibility in choosing which courses to take in any given semester. We always encourage students to take a balance of general education requirements along with their specific JMC courses. To become a major, a student must have a 2.5 GPA based on at least 30 hours.
