Course summary

Entry requirement for international students
Students must apply for a communication major at the end of the sophomore year and they are expected to have a 2.3 (C+) average in three CTA courses. Each candidate will appear before a review panel of CTA faculty for informal evaluation prior to admission. Prior to the interview, students must submit an essay about the chosen major and three samples of graded work. Students who are less than one calendar year from graduation are not admitted to the major. Students must choose a minor from another area, or a 20-credit directed course of study, a self-designed minor, or second major in consultation with their CTA advisor. A minimum TOEFL score of 550 (paper-based) or 213 (computer-based) or a 4 on the TWE are also required.
