Broadcast news anchor and current MSL student Nick Ciletti said, “I love that USC offers the MSL program entirely online, and it’s really convenient for my sometimes-unpredictable schedule — you never know when breaking news will happen. I also really appreciate the one-on-one attention my advisers and professors are able to provide us and that’s something that sets USC and Gould apart.”
