There’s still time to launch your journalism career at one of Canada’s leading graduate programs.
The UBC Master of Journalism program is extending its application deadline to May 1, 2025, recognizing that recent changes in personal or professional situations may have created new opportunities for aspiring journalists to advance their education and careers.
Pursuing graduate studies is a significant decision, influenced by busy careers, personal responsibilities, and the changing nature of journalism.
Our decision to extend the deadline reflects our understanding that pursuing graduate studies in journalism requires careful planning and consideration, especially when balancing professional responsibilities, personal circumstances, or the fluid demands of journalistic work.
We hope that this additional time allows prospective students who missed the original deadline to complete their applications thoughtfully and thoroughly. We strive to build a diverse, engaged, and dynamic cohort each year, and we believe inclusivity in the admissions process strengthens our entire community.
If you’ve already submitted your application, it remains fully considered and on schedule. This extension provides an opportunity for more qualified applicants to join the program.
Remember: The new deadline is May 1, 2025. Your story in journalism begins at UBC.
