I wouldn't look at just writing programs but a social science discipline that interests you a good school will teach you both good writing and good research. Think about a degree in Political Science for instance. When I got my undergrad degree, in Sociology, many of the classes I took required a 20 page research paper. I learned writing and research. You can also write for the school newspaper when you are in school so you can put together a portfolio of your clippings. This will help you land a job after you graduate. As for schools consider any of the members of the American Association of Universities http://aau.edu/ these are the tops schools in the country. Here is one list of "best" college newspapers http://www.campusgrotto.com/best-college-news-sites.html I think the Princeton Review also ranks college newspapers.<br><b>References : </b><br> If you are interested in a career as a journalist you need both good writing and good research skills.
