Juris Doctor/MA in Journalism and Mass Communications in Omaha United States | University of Nebraska-Lincoln

The factors that weigh most heavily in admission to the College of Law are the applicant's undergraduate grade-point average (GPA) and the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) score. The GPA is evaluated in terms of the applicant's undergraduate institution, courses taken, major and trend of academic performance. An applicant is also evaluated based on letters of recommendation, a personal statement, work experiences, extracurricular activities and any other information supplied by the applicant. Admission to the Graduate College with the objective of the M.A. in Journalism and Mass Communications is dependent upon favorable recommendation of the Graduate Committee of the College of Journalism and Mass Communications. The committee considers the applicant's academic record, Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores, professional experience in the media or media-related professions, letters of recommendation, statement of goals and objectives, and portfolio of work. If the student has already been admitted to the UNL College of Law, the GRE requirement may be waived. Minimum English proficiency: Paper TOEFL 600, Internet TOEFL100, IELTS 6.5
