Admissions

Welcome to Newhouse!

It’s a great place. We think you’re going to like it here.

Choosing where to go to school is a big decision. We get it.

At Syracuse University, we know Newhouse is the best communications school in the nation. But don’t take our word for it. We encourage you to figure that out for yourself.

So, take a look at our website. Look up our graduates. Ask your guidance counselor and your teachers. If you have a question about Newhouse, ask our admissions team. Or reach out to our @newhousesu social media team—it’s staffed by students who were in your place a few years ago and they are more than happy to answer your questions.

Feel the (Newhouse) Love

Here’s another point to consider—Newhouse graduates love Newhouse and they love their Newhouse Family. Seriously.

Whether it’s making the right introduction, moving the resume to the top of the pile, helping with career advice, or giving feedback on work—the Newhouse Network is strong.

He says he got his start in play-by-play through years of coaching from a Newhouse alum. Take a look at this clip from an interview with Jack Gordon ’24, during the 2024 Newhouse Super Bowl LVII reporting trip.
