Please wait to start your application until mid-August 2022, when the application will open to start the Medill MSJ program in summer or fall 2023. 

Our online application system is closing May 13 as we transition to a new system, and our 2023-2024 application will open in mid-August. Please note you will not be able to start an application between May 13 and mid-August. Also, we cannot guarantee that any applications that have been started but not submitted by May 13 will be transferred to our new application system. Please look out for additional information in late summer 2022 about accessing the new application system to complete and submit your application. 

Applicants must choose ONE program specialization on their admissions application. The selected specialization will determine when you start the MSJ program (summer or fall). It is important to select a specialization that matches your desired quarter of entry.

Visit our application requirements page to learn about the items that are needed when you apply.

If you have any questions, please contact our admissions team.
