I can not recommend the Bachelor of Journalism program at Toronto Metropolitan University enough. As someone who spent a year in a science-based field knowing all too well that this wasn’t where my heart was meant to be, I am so thankful that I took the leap and transferred into the program of my dreams. Although journalism does not have the smallest class size, the program itself feels extremely intimate and hands-on. I love how all of the faculty also have jobs working for some of the biggest broadcasting corporations in the world. This factor alone instantly creates connections and networking opportunities for students. In addition, TMU is bursting with state-of-the-art facilities and plenty of opportunities to gain experience in niche areas of your choosing. I’ve written for school papers, had the opportunity to speak on radio shows and I’ve even created a podcast with some of my closest friends in the program. If your dream is to become a journalist there truly is no better place to do it. Toronto as a city is bursting with networking opportunities around every corner and I promise you’ll find some of your best friends here. There truly is no place like TMU. So, if you’re thinking about it, my best advice is simple, just do it, you’ll be surprised at the places this university can take you!
