Ideally to study Masters in any subject you should have completed Bachelor's degree in that subject. If not the entire duration of the course, you should have atleast studied that subject for atleast one semester. In your case if you have studied BA Eanglish and want to pursue MA Journalism, that is going to be difficullt through regular mode because you do not have Journalism or Mass Communication as a subject during your Bachelor's degree/ Now having said that, you can pursue MA Journalism through Distance Education where in Bachelor's degree from any discipline is considered valid. For example, IGNOU offers MA Journalism and according to the eligibility criteria mentioned in the official website http://www.ignou.ac.in/ignou/aboutignou/school/sojnms/programmes/detail/690/2 , Bachelor's degree in any discipline is allowed. All you need is access to Computer, Internet and basic knowledge of word processing. But IGNOU is an Open University which means this course is a Distance Education Course.

Hello,

You can start with doing interships, it'll make your foundation stronger,you'll also get an idea about how to write catering to different audiences, you can start your own blog and pen down whatever interests you, law can be your option as you're a graduate in the same field, there are many onlines sites as well where you can contribute, this in a way will build your body of work. When it comes to the pay package it varies depending on experience and expertise. Companies often look for people who have published body of work, with experience and enough expertise people do well in this industry, but then one needs to work hard for that, it's not all of a sudden a person starts making lots of money, it's a continous process.

Coming to whether a course in journalism is required or not, many people have entered into this field without any degree in  the relevant field, with experience and opportunity they've learnt the craft, a course definitely helps you  learn the finer intricacies, you can choose to do Master's Degree or Post Graduate Diploma, some of the best colleges are IIMC(Delhi), Jadavpur University, IPU, Amity University, St Xavier's College,Asian College of Journalism etc.
