The meeting served as an information session for prospective students about the American University School of Communication (SOC). Ana Maria and Tara explained that SOC majors typically require 39 to 42 credits and that students must complete a major or minor outside the school to apply their communication skills to another area of interest. They described the school's experiential learning approach, which includes three-hour classes focused on practice and feedback, internships for credit, and intensive programs in LA, New York, and the Cannes Film Festival. Ana Maria and Tara detailed the four divisions and seven majors, including Film and Media Arts, Journalism, Public Relations and Strategic Communication, Communication Studies, and Communication, Language, and Culture. They highlighted small class sizes, faculty who are active professionals in their fields, and the availability of dedicated SOC advisors. During the Q&A, they addressed questions about study abroad programs like FAMU, sports broadcasting opportunities, double majoring, and the admissions process. Massimo provided context on admissions, including the use of portfolios and the acceptance of AP and IB credits.
