Journalism Reputations?

<p>I was accepted to Ithaca and Northeastern for journalism, and I hear back from Boston U, George Washington, NYU and Syracuse in a few months. I’m looking at all of these schools, but I’d really like to end up at BU or Northeastern. GW and NYU are both reaches, and so is Syracuse with Newhouse, and BU is a target. Newhouse I know has a great reputation for journalism, but where do the other five fall into the picture? I’ve been looking at Northeastern a lot for its co-op program, but I’m not sure if that would be better or worse than a school with a better reputation. Which school(s) have the best journalism reputations?</p>

<p>From a well-known magazine under the Hearst (you should as a future journalist know who they are) Conglomeration of magazines: </p>

<p>Some of the more well-known schools for turning out students who work in the publishing industry are University of Missouri-Columbia, Northwestern University, Columbia University, New York University, Boston University, Syracuse, University of Georgia, University of Florida, and University of Southern California. And since New York and Los Angeles are the biggest cities for the magazine and publishing industry, schools in those vicinities may offer a greater number of internships during the school year or summer.</p>
