Health and Safety

Students participating in internships with external companies and organizations must comply with all health and safety rules, including those related to COVID-19 prevention, set by the external companies or organizations. For example, external companies/organizations may have different masking or vaccination rules than the University, including in some instances stricter rules, and students must comply with those rules, in addition to the Syracuse University rules.

Failure to comply with a company or organization’s health and safety rules may prevent a particular placement or result in the loss of a placement.

If you have any questions about requirements for specific companies or organizations, please let us know.

In addition to Syracuse University tuition, Newhouse LA entails a program fee and applicable housing costs.

Existing financial aid, grants and scholarships will be applied to your Newhouse LA semester. Additional costs to consider are books, groceries/meals, entertainment, personal expenses, transportation (car/gas/metro/Uber) and travel to Los Angeles.
