Emerson College has been ranked as having the number 1 journalism program in the country, which was a huge pull factor for me. I also love being in a city and love having a small campus feel while still being in a big city.
Course Curriculum
I like the course curriculum, however, some of the elective courses are a hit or miss. I also love the major course because I am able to do hands-on work in my field of study. I have learned a lot about important aspects of journalism and have been given the opportunity to practice them right away.
Fees
The tuition for Emerson College is around $68,000 a year, give or take with scholarships and financial aid.
Examination Structure
Exams vary for each teacher, however, they are usually project or essay based. Very few teachers choose to do handwritten test-like exams, however, they still occur. Exams throughout the semester vary from teacher to teacher as well.
Faculty
The faculty at my college is wonderful. Though there is some discourse regarding Emerson and it's lack of diversity within the faculty and students who were accepted, I have lucked out with the faculty and feel very supported by them and have learned a lot of valuable things from them.
