Admissions
Curriculum
The heart of a television, radio and film master's experience is a sequence of eight elective courses from a broad range of topics.
You will begin the program in early July. Most students finish with a major-market internship during the first six weeks of the following summer. You must take 36 credits and pass a comprehensive examination to complete the degree. You’ll also have opportunities to participate in weeklong industry seminars in New York City or Los Angeles.
Scholarships and Funding
Various scholarships, fellowships and instructional associate positions are awarded to incoming Newhouse students to help offset the cost of attendance. Since Newhouse does have limited funding to offer, the majority of these awards are partial and only applicable for the academic year (excluding the summer sessions). It is also a competitive process, and all awards are merit-based.
