National Association of Black Journalists Scholarships (Visit this link)
Annually, NABJ awards deserving students interested in pursuing a career in journalism awards of more than $30,000 in NABJ scholarships. Each scholarship is worth up to $5,000. Scholarships are open to any foreign or American born students, currently attending an accredited four-year college/university in the U.S. or those who are candidates for graduate school. For more information about scholarships, contact program development manager Ryan Williams at 301-445-7100 Ext. 113 or ryan@nabj.org. Requirements To be considered and to receive a scholarship, all applicants must be a member of NABJ. The requirements make up one complete packet for this program. Students who want to apply for the program must submit four complete packets to the national office. This includes students looking for the broadest internship. Because students normally have to pay for each official transcript, NABJ will accept three unofficial, and one official instead of four official transcripts. To ensure your application is ready to be submitted, have an instructor or counselor review your package to confirm that: # Your resume is clear and highlights each of your accomplishments # Your essay is readable and tells us why you want to be a journalist # You have explained your financial need # Your recommendations highlight your strengths # Your transcript is current and is an official copy # You have included your samples of work # VTF only: - Print: Twenty examples of photos, page design, typography, illustrations, informational graphics, etc., (JPG or PDF format) preferably on CD - Broadcast: Two, 30 second to 3 minute clips (VHS format) that demonstrate your editing, photography, design, and/or graphic skills # Other scholarships: - Print: Six of your published works that demonstrate your reporting, editing, and/or producing skills - Broadcast: One audio (cassette or CD) or video (VHS format) no longer than five minutes in length of your broadcast works that demonstrate your reporting, editing, and/or producing skills Remember: Read the application instructions carefully! Only completed and timely applications will be reviewed. Judges will also consider each student's degree of financial need. Note: All materials must be typewritten (double-spaced). All materials become property of NABJ and will not be returned. All materials must be submitted on 8.5 x 11 paper. Do not staple papers. Use binder and/or paper clips. INCOMPLETE APPLICATIONS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. Check back soon for the 2007 application.
