<p>I wouldn’t really bother applying to SCA if you don’t think you have a competitive application, it’s one of the most competitive programs anywhere at any school. You can apply for Annenberg and try to transfer to SCA after you get in, just be aware that it’s just as difficult to transfer into SCA internally as it is for a freshman or transfer student applying for the first time. Very few people get in. It is an often told saga around campus - the 'ole “I tried to get into another school but really wanted to go to SCA and then still didn’t get in” tale.</p>
<p>Also, FYI, Annenberg is also pretty competitive, and will be especially so when the new building opens this fall. The coverage on CBS This Morning and other media has elevate the school’s profile (which was already competitive with other top Journalism/Communications programs).</p>
