Editor, Apple News

As a JRMC student, I gained the practical and theoretical skills that equipped me for my graduate studies. The faculty’s guidance and support helped me become a well-rounded journalist. My time at The Caravan especially provided me with a real-life newsroom experience that taught me the ins and outs of the industry and gave me an edge in the job market. It’s something that still comes up in conversations with editors and recruiters to this day.

Rawan Lasheen'15
Member of the Egyptian Parliament 2021-2026

GAPP isn't just a school that gives you the needed learning experience; it is a community that you become part of and it pushes you toward achieving your goals. Teaching through hands-on experience, preparing you to face all your career challenges, never forgetting its alumni and where they're so far in their dreams are all qualities of the GAPP School at AUC.
