I’m applying to one of the two offered joint degree programs with WCAS/Medill and Bienen Early Decision. I had a lesson with a professor of piano at Northwestern and he said I shouldn’t have a problem getting into the school of music early decision, so now i’m just worried about WCAS or Medill. Someone at Northwestern told me it’s literally impossible to transfer into the Medill school once you’ve been accepted, and that if I had any interest in journalism at all that I should apply for Medill and then transfer to WCAS if I don’t like it. Is it significantly more difficult to be accepted into Medill than it is for WCAS? I’m Editor-in-Chief of my school newspaper and have a well-written essay. Thoughts?
