“ Belmont provided me a great opportunity to study and intern in a top media market. I transferred from a large state school to Belmont and while many of my former classmates had to move to small cities to start their television careers, I was able to stay in a great market like Nashville to begin mine.” MICHAEL PONCE Headline Country

“ The opportunities presented to me in the Video Production major and the guidance I received from my professors in the Media Studies program helped me develop my skills as a videographer and land an incredible job as a video producer at a record label.” ERIC IRVIN Average Joes Entertainment
