    GRADUATE PROGRAMS

    Application Dates(申请日期)

    Applications are accepted for fall admission only. Applications to each area of study, except BER, along with all applications for financial aid, must be received by January 4th. Late applications will be accepted if space remains available.

    Business & Economic Reporting (BER) will consider applications received as late as May 1, but admissions are done on a rolling basis from January 4 and so applicants are strongly encouraged to apply early.

    NYU undergraduates are not required to declare a major until second semester of their sophomore year, and are allowed to shift majors in subsequent years. As such we do not have a distinct cohort to track from the freshman year.

    Departing Seniors are defined as all seniors in an end-of-fall count of majors who do not appear in the next year’s end-of-fall count.

    Students are required to complete a second major in addition to Journalism, chosen from the other academic programs in the College of Arts and Science.

    At the Master’s level the Institute offers ten areas of study. Most M.A.s can be completed in three semesters (Fall, Spring, Fall) with the exception of the Global and Joint programs which typically require two years to complete.

    *Eventual graduation includes all degrees granted by the second summer after a cohort’s expected graduation. For 18-month programs this counts degrees received up to 3 semesters beyond the expected graduation date. For 24-month programs, this reflects degrees granted up to 2 semesters beyond expected graduation date.

    **Retention rate is calculated in the second summer after a cohort’s expected graduation and considers anyone who has not been enrolled for two consecutive semesters to be attrited.

    Data source: Institutional Research, Office of the Dean, Faculty of Arts and Science.

     

     

     

    Graduate students take 36 to 48 points for the Master of Arts degree, depending on the area of study they select. Up to 8 points of electives may be taken, including classes outside the Institute. Electives may include courses within the Institute (if prerequisites have been met), graduate-level courses from other programs and schools at NYU (if approved by that program or school), internships, or independent study.

    Up to 8 credits may be transferred from another institution (if approved by the Director of Graduate Studies and the Dean’s office). All application for transfer credits must be made within the first year of matriculation. Contact the graduate administrative aide for a transfer application.

    It is recommended that you at least take your initial journalism courses (first semester) before considering an internship (fieldwork). You can do an internship on a volunteer, paid or for-credit basis, depending on the employer’s program. If you intern for credit, you enroll in the Journalism Institute’s Credit Internship Course. An important change: Students can now take this course more than once and have the option of electing to earn 1, 2, 3 or 4 credits for the course.

    The Institute believes the program is best completed through three semesters of full-time study, although part-time students are accepted. It is not always possible, however, to offer part-time students a complete selection of courses.

    Students are expected to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 or B throughout their graduate career. Students whose GPA falls below 3.0 are placed on academic probation. Students on probation may be asked to leave the program if they receive additional grades below B.

    Please note that not all courses are offered every semester.

     

    At the graduate (M.A.) level, the Institute offers ten areas of study:

    Please note that Global and Joint Program Studies consists of joint programs with:

    For joint degrees, students must apply to and be accepted by both participating departments and should indicate their interest when applying.

    The Cultural Reporting and Criticism concentration in the Journalism Institute accepts candidates with bachelor’s degrees in any field and with a wide variety of experience. We prefer candidates with a strong liberal arts background and at least a year of work or travel experience after graduation. We look for evidence of writing talent, the intellectual ability and motivation to handle a demanding graduate program, and engagement with the cultural issues and phenomena on which this specific concentration is focused. We look carefully at the whole of each candidate’s application, but place particular importance on the essay and writing samples.

    Along with the completed application, the applicant must provide one copy of the official transcript from her/his undergraduate institution, three letters of recommendation, and three writing samples. Cultural Reporting and Criticism applicants must complete the CRC essay in lieu of the required statement of purpose.

    The essay should be specific and detailed enough to give the admissions committee a concrete sense of who you are as a potential cultural reporter and critic. It should address the following questions: Which cultural, social, or political issues and phenomena most engage you? Which cultural journalists do you admire, which do you dislike, which have influenced you–and why? What draws you to cultural reporting and criticism, and what do you expect to get from the program itself? Which particular courses attract you, and why? What kind of writing have you done and what do you aspire to do? What publications do you read regularly and why? Feel free to discuss any other ideas, or include any other details, that you consider relevant to your application. There is no required minimum or maximum length for the essay, though many are in the 1500 to 2000-word range.

    CRC also requires that you append to your essay a brief statement of your plans for financing your graduate work. All CRC applicants must include this statement, whether or not you are applying for financial aid.

    While we accept clips (published articles) as writing samples, and recommend that applicants submit any clips they have, samples need not be limited to published work. Essays, reviews, travel narratives, reported pieces, memoirs, op/eds may be submitted, whether or not they have been published. (Poetry and fiction should not be submitted.) Overall, the writing samples should represent the best the applicant has to offer and the work most indicative of her/his aptitude for cultural reporting and criticism.

    We strongly urge you to submit letters of recommendation from professors with whom you have studied, and who can speak specifically to your intellectual and writing abilities. Letters from employers should be submitted only if they can address those abilities (i.e. if you have been working in journalism, publishing, etc.). Letters from personal or family friends should not be submitted.

    Applicants should have an undergraduate grade point average of at least 3.0. CRC has previously recommended a score of 600 or higher on the GRE Verbal reasoning test. The updated GRE now scores on a 130-170 scale, and, accordingly, the program now recommends a verbal score of 160 or higher. (There has been no change to the scoring of the Analytic Writing portion of the GRE.) A “concordance table” to translate between the two scoring systems can be found here. No specific subject test is necessary.

    Non-native English speakers must also take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) unless they completed their undergraduate education at an institution where English is the primary language of instruction. A minimum TOEFL score of 100 on the Internet-based test, 250 on the computer-based test, or 600 on the paper test is required with a score of 6.0 on the Test of Written English (TWE). International applicants MUST have a fluent command of written English.

    Applications are accepted for fall admission only and must be received by January 4, though the Graduate Enrollment Services of NYU prefers that you meet the December 18 deadline if possible. Candidates for admission to the Cultural Reporting and Criticism concentration must apply directly to CRC. No transfers into CRC from other areas of study in the Institute are permitted.

    Questions? Please email cultural.program@nyu.edu

    Need an application?

    Applications are available from the GSAS application resource center starting in late September.

    Note: All application materials (including test score reports) should be sent directly to GSAS, not to the Carter Journalism Institute or CRC. Please visit the application resource center for further instructions.

    Frequently asked questions

    Q: Is there a word limit for the CRC personal statement?

    A: There is no formal word limit; however, most personal statements are in the 1500-2000 word range.

    Q: Do you need me to provide my major GPA? What if my undergraduate institution did not calculate a major GPA?

    A: We ask that you self report your GPA in the application. However, official transcripts must also be included in your application.

    Q: I took the GRE (or TOEFL) test one year ago and the score is not my best. Can I report the former score first and then make arrangements for a new test?

    A: This decision would be entirely up to you; however, we must receive the new scores no later than mid-February.

    Q: How much does the GRE or TOEFL score weigh in the assessment for admittance and scholarship granting of the applicant?

    A: There are many elements that make up a complete application. The admissions committee reviews all materials, supporting documents, and test scores in reaching a decision. There is no one item that is decisive.

    Q: Can I submit test scores and supplementary materials after the application deadline?

    A: Scores and other supplementary materials may be sent in after the application deadline, but should be received no later than mid-February.

    Q: What is the difference between the December 18th recommended deadline and the January deadline?

    A: Either deadline is fine.

    Q: My recommender hasn’t yet posted a letter to the online application; will you still receive the recommendation letter if I submit the application now?

    A: As long as you have registered your recommenders before you submit the online application, the letters will be added once they are submitted by your recommender.

    Q: I’ve worked mainly in TV and radio. Can I send a transcript of a TV or radio piece that I’ve worked on?

    A: Unfortunately, CRC cannot accept transcripts as writing samples.

    Q: What is the code for sending GRE test scores? Is there a department code?

    A: The code for sending GRE scores is 2596 (NYU GSAS). You do not need to include a department code. Please see the testing FAQ athttp://gsas.nyu.edu/page/grad.admissionsapplication for more information on the GRE test requirement, and let me know if you have any additional questions. You can self-report your scores, but we will also need an official report.

    Q: Have my application materials arrived at your office?

    A: Applications are sent to GSAS, and are not received directly by CRC or the journalism department. Please contact GSAS at gsas.admissions@nyu.edu for information on the status of your materials.

    Q: Are published journalistic writings in languages other than English acceptable as writing samples?

    A: All essays and writing samples submitted to CRC must be in English, either in the original or in translation.

    Q: Can I send my transcript and letters of recommendation by mail?

    A: The University does accept letters of recommendation by mail, although electronic submission is preferred. Just be sure to register your recommender on the online application. More information on letters of recommendation may be found on the “Letters of Recommendation FAQ” page, available here.

    Any additional questions about the online application or other application-related questions should be directed to GSAS at gsas.admissions@nyu.edu. For more information about the CRC program, please email us at cultural.program@nyu.edu.

    Graduates of our program earn a Master’s degree in Journalism with a concentration in Cultural Reporting and Criticism. Students take 9 courses for 36 credits. A full-time course load is three courses per semester, and students normally finish in three semesters (fall, spring, fall). Full-time attendance is required; after the first semester, students are occasionally permitted, under exceptional circumstances, to attend part-time.

    Students must apply and be admitted to the CRC concentration. It is not possible for journalism students enrolled in another area of study in the Institute to transfer to CRC.

    First-Semester Core Courses (12 credits)

    Writing and Reporting Workshop is designed to teach the basics of reporting and writing while getting students to think creatively about what constitutes news. Students write, read, and discuss articles on a wide range of cultural topics.

    The Cultural Conversation orients students to a broad view of culture and places cultural reporting and criticism in historical perspective. Through reading, writing, and discussion, the course focuses on the debates that have informed cultural journalism in the past half century — debates about such issues as high versus mass culture; the relationship between art and politics; universalism and multiculturalism. It emphasizes that “thinking like a critic” is an integral part of the reporting and writing process, and challenges the conventional distinction between theory and practice.

    The Critical Survey is an intensive course aimed at developing students’ ability to write criticism that combines clear, vivid prose and a distinctive individual voice with close analysis of specific works. At the same time, the class examines some of the major trends of 20th-century criticism, including the rise of popular culture as a critical subject and the meaning of modernism. Students read and discuss works by critics such as Susan Sontag, Pauline Kael, James Agee, Gilbert Seldes, Robert Hughes, Jane Kramer, Jed Perl, Greil Marcus, and John Berger, and work on perfecting the review.

    CRC Electives Include:

    • Cataclysm and Commitment: Politics and Violence in the 20th Century
    • The Longform Essay
    • Specialized Reporting: The Arts
    • Reporting Social Worlds
    • Perspectives on Race and Class
    • Political Cinema
    • The Critical Profile
    • Art of Argument and Polemics
    • Radio Reporting

    Additional Offerings

    • Eating New York: Covering the Politics and Pleasures of the Food World
    • Non-Fiction Narrative
    • The Personal Essay
    • Ethnography for Journalists

    CRC students may also take other courses offered by the Journalism Institute and, with permission, up to two electives within other departments at NYU.

    Internships: Almost all students do at least one internship while enrolled in the CRC program, though this is not required.
