Have you thought about any other big cities? What is it about New York that is so special? What about DePaul in Chicago? Sure this would be a slight stretch, but if you could pull off a GREAT essay, some volunteer hours, and a couple of good recs, i’d say you had a pretty good shot. University of Texas would also be a school worth looking into… Also, the University of Missouri has a great journalism program. One of the best in the country and it’s not so far away from Arkansas. Most people aren’t ready for a big commitment like going from Arkansas to New York right out of high school. I’d try being realistic about college. It’s not something that needs to be taken lightly.
Best of luck! :)
