Transfer Students

Keep COMM

Transitions teach us about ourselves. In the School of Communication Studies, we see transitions in college as a good thing. If you’re thinking about changing your major, look no further – COMM is a place that you can call home.

COMM is a flexible major that allows you to customize your degree to your interests and career goals. Students can finish the bulk of the major coursework in 3-4 semesters, and with many of our courses online, COMM can fit into your existing schedule, and help you graduate on time.

A degree in communication studies will give you skills and knowledge for a career in almost any field – in international organizations, businesses and corporations of all shapes and sizes, the health industry, media and more.
