Experience Journalism
Biola's Journalism program prepares students for many exciting careers! Our graduates work around the world in the cutting edge of journalism. Biola Journalism students and alumni have worked in places like the Washington Times, the San Francisco Giants, WTOP (Washington, DC), the Associated Press, Transparent Productions and Warner Bros Records. On November 10-12, come discover where Biola Journalism will take you!
Two options for this experience allow it to easily fit within your schedule!
Option 1: Attend on Saturday-Monday ($60):
For the first time, we'll be partnering with Biola University Day to help you get the most from your visit! This is a great option to get the full experience through and participate in Experience Journalism and University Day! Arriving on Saturday morning, you'll have the opportunity to attend chapel, stay in the dorms, visit a Journalism class, and tour campus. Plus, we'll have a special Saturday evening event where you'll get to meet other students. Lunch, dinner and accommodations are all included with this option! And, don't forget, you'll be able to experience "Midnight Madness" on Sunday--a Biola tradition that kicks off the basketball season!
Option 2: Attend Only on Saturday ($20):
If you're unable to be here the whole weekend, there is still plenty of activity to engage in on Saturday. Participate in sessions led by the program's faculty, interact with current Biola students and compete in a competitive journalism contest. Contest winners and strong entries play a prominent role in applications for scholarships available to incoming students.
You'll have the chance to find out more about the four emphasis of the major (Broadcast News, Writing and Publishing, Visual Media, and Public Relations) and connect with faculty who can help you find the best fit in the program. Whether or not you've had any prior experience in journalism, this is your chance to gain valuable feedback and insight to polish your skills.
Committed to diversity within the major, the Journalism Department is dedicated to helping students from a variety of cultural and economic backgrounds thrive in this program. Wherever you come from and whatever your experience has been, Biola's program offers you tools and training needed to make it in the world of journalism.
Experience Biola Journalism...and step into your future!
