My point remains. He needs to get into the graduate program based on Merit.

Wingnut

4/20/19 1:59pm

His merit is he has a degree while playing major college football. How many grad students can say that? NEXT!

monkeycowboy

How is all of that going to help him succeed in a graduate program?

Did you get a Masters in Communications? Ty'Son isn't pursuing an elite program

Check your facts Yes there is. Masters of Mass Communications.

If it's that easy, he should have no problem getting in without help

Wingnut

4/20/19 9:39pm

Problem is that USC has a MA in Mass Comm. He has to be admitted to a program at BYU that USC doesn't have.

Look. They easily use BYUtv component to make their program unique.

You're spinning. Nobody's saying any of this. Let him earn his way in just like any other student.
