Northeastern could be worth an application. They have a dual major in journalism and poli sci that could be worth a look - lots of great co-op opportunities that could be a help in breaking into the field. And they give guaranteed merit for NMF - it was 30K when I last checked, a year or two ago. USC is also good for NMF merit (half or possibly full tuition) and has strong offerings and a lot of great opportunities in LA.

thank you so, so much!!! this is incredibly helpful. i wasnt aware of northeastern’s program!! that sounds really fantastic. ill definitely adjust my list based on all of this :)!!
