So… I don’t know much about the program you are applying for, but beefing up your ECs related to journalism might help. Seems to me that to get into a journalism program, along with good grades (esp. in English), more demonstrated interest might be good. Write for the school paper (or is that what your publications class is?), volunteer at the local public radio station, start a blog, etc. I know you have a lot of ECs already, so you will have to weigh that. If this is super important to you, then your ECs should back up your passion for journalism.
