This field prepares people for work as print journalists, news editors, and news managers. It also supports work in news production and related journalism practice.

For international students, tuition is around the median for US programmes. The institution admits about 78% of applicants.

Saint Augustine, Florida, is the setting for Flagler College and a central part of the student experience. The city is described as the nation's oldest, giving students opportunities to preserve history, explore shipwrecks, practice Spanish on a galleon, and learn beyond a typical classroom. Surfing, art, poetry, tennis, and other activities also shape life outside class.

Academic work combines close faculty relationships with practical experiences. A 14:1 student-to-teacher ratio supports regular contact with professors, while facilities and faculty and staff support help students explore their interests. Students can take part in dolphin research, stage plays, work at The Alligator Farm, or pursue programs in areas such as hospitality and tourism. Science Week showcases student research and community involvement, and hospitality students can gain experience through events in New York City.

International students should know that FlagSHIP gives every student an opportunity to study abroad, away, or in the community. The program begins in the sophomore year and can include studying hospitality in Scotland, examining water scarcity in Jordan, or exploring farming in Costa Rica. Learning may happen on a research vessel, in a community setting, or through travel. Six months after graduation, 90% of students were employed, interning, or pursuing further education.
