Students participate in local and national activities.
ACT lets students serve in leadership roles, develop professional skills, meet others working in ag communication and have fun. Students take agriculture, science, and economics courses in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and journalism courses in the College of Journalism and Mass Communication. Most courses taken in junior colleges transfer to the major, but students who take their entire coursework at the University generally find it easier to complete the requirements for the major within four years. A minimum overall grade point average of 2.5 is required for transfer admission into the program. They receive credit for the internship.
