美國(guó)是傳媒行業(yè)發(fā)展非常發(fā)達(dá)的國(guó)家，而且美國(guó)的教育也是世界一流的，擁有眾多傳媒專業(yè)的牛校。每年來(lái)自世界各地的優(yōu)秀學(xué)生，都會(huì)申請(qǐng)這些學(xué)校，競(jìng)爭(zhēng)這有限的名額。那么，這些傳媒專業(yè)的牛校，他們對(duì)學(xué)生最低的錄取條件是怎么樣的，哪個(gè)學(xué)校更好申請(qǐng)呢？下面威久留學(xué)美國(guó)研究中心對(duì)Missouri, University of-Columbia、UCSB、Syracuse University這三所傳媒牛校的官方申請(qǐng)最低要求和一些特殊條件來(lái)進(jìn)行分析，從這兩方面來(lái)看，評(píng)測(cè)一下三所學(xué)校申請(qǐng)的難度。

      Missouri, University of-Columbia在美國(guó)綜合排名是85，但是它是美國(guó)最早成立傳媒學(xué)院的大學(xué)，是傳媒專業(yè)的老牌牛校，非常注重學(xué)術(shù)研究。學(xué)校的研究生錄取最低要求并不高，但是實(shí)際的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)是非常激烈的。傳媒專業(yè)可以提供PHD學(xué)位，而且PHD學(xué)位的畢業(yè)率很高，達(dá)到了91%,遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)了平均傳播學(xué)PHD的平均畢業(yè)率。但是PHD只錄取Master學(xué)生，本科畢業(yè)的不能直接申請(qǐng)。研究生學(xué)習(xí)非本專業(yè)的，需要有選修或?qū)W過(guò)相關(guān)核心課程，所以對(duì)想申請(qǐng)PHD的學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)，有一定難度。需要注意的是申請(qǐng)傳媒專業(yè)，最好能夠有相關(guān)工作背景，并且學(xué)校要求提供Writing Sample。
