If Im transferring from another college with a news or media writing course, will this satisfy the introductory newswriting course, Journ 207, requirement for the department?
Yes, if the class met the following requirements. It should be a class where you wrote stories not merely for a student newspaper, but, using AP style, wrote a variety of stories under deadline pressure in class and developed an understanding of news values and grammar. The class also should have provided writing such as single-incident stories, feature stories and speech stories, with some outside newsgathering assignments.
