从学校的专业设置来看，每个学校的侧重点都有所不同。例如：哥伦比亚大学的传媒学校没有像其他学校那样开设很多的学科，学科的设置主要集中在新闻学传播领域，纽约大学主要的研究领域是在传播新闻学方面，尤其是采访技巧，新闻播报等实用性方面。
纽约大学和哥伦比亚大学同样是以新闻报道而出名，所以他们的学科设置上也有很多相同之处，但是纽约大学与哥伦比亚大学相比更偏向于商业新闻报导这一领域。他的专业设置多以Business and Economic Reporting为主，并且在这一领域有很强的权威性。
密苏里大学的新闻传媒学校是全美几大最知名的新闻学校之一，也是美国最早提供新闻传媒高等教育的学院，并且密苏里大学的新闻学院规模非常大，师资力量强大。教授的领域也非常广泛，主要分为广告，新闻编辑、照片、杂志、新闻、电台六大方面。在课程设置上也比较注重学生在新闻采访和写作技巧方面的培养，同时这所大学所教授的课程大多是以研究性为主。
雪城大学在美国是以文科著名的院校，全美排名50左右。传媒学校的计算机房全部采用的是苹果机，所以准备去那就读的学子们可以现在就开始适应下苹果机的操作系统了。并且她的传媒学校师资力量达到60名之多。可见其传媒学院之庞大。他们学院的Media Studies偏重于学术类，所以申请的本土人并不是很多，所以他们的这个专业每年有三分之一招收的都是中国学生，非常受中国学生的欢迎。
