DONALD W REYNOLDS – BUSINESS JOURNALISM FELLOWSHIPS 2009 FOR COLLEGE JUNIORS / GRADUATES
The Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism will nationally award eight non-renewable scholarships of $4,000 to college juniors or graduate students for their following academic year.
Deadline for applications is Feb. 2, 2009, with scholarships awarded March 17, 2009 for the academic year that commences in fall 2009.
The scholarships are for business journalism majors, or journalism majors with a concentration in business journalism, who are seriously interested in pursuing a career in business journalism. In some cases, other students who have gained experience solely through opportunities such as business journalism internships will be considered.
A journalism faculty member must nominate the student following the directions below.
The Reynolds Center will review the qualifications of the candidates before the final eight selections are announced. Each student through his or her university will receive $4,000 that will be applied to the coming academic year.
Students must be enrolled full-time. Financial need is not a criterion.
The postmark deadline for scholarships is Feb. 2, 2009.
The scholarship winners will be announced March 17, 2009.
