Requesting a Course Waiver
Some students come to the Newmark J-School with advanced skills in certain journalistic areas that put them beyond the learning outcomes of first semester courses. In order to pass through a first semester class, students must demonstrate through a portfolio and, in some cases, through an interview, skills covering all the learning outcomes for a given course. This is more than demonstration of specific technical skills; the students must also be able to demonstrate the skills in a journalistic context. Students cannot just assert years of experience as a journalist. If you believe that you are qualified to receive a waiver for a course, you must complete the Advanced Journalism Skills Assessment.
