Mass Communication also requires majors to earn a “C” or better in the English essential core courses. Mass Communication majors are also required to pass a comprehensive examination as part of the requirement for graduation. Any student who has to repeat more than two required courses in the major, because of a grade of “D” or “F,” will be advised to change his/her major.
