Workload - there are 3 or 4 assessments per subject, usually one presentation/seminar, one short piece of work and one major work. Typical first year program is 4 subjects comprising of one media, one politics/history, one cultural and one writing subject each semester. Second and third year is 3 subjects a semester with one writing, one cultural and one elective.

You can expect jobs in editing/publishing or as a freelance writer if you're damn good at what you do and if you take the appropriate electives you can also land jobs in advertising, public relations, journalism, information management or teaching in secondary schools.

The cut-off is very soon, and sometime before the late rounds are released I believe so I'd make your decision as soon as possible.
