NAJA, NYU Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute full-tuition scholarship applications due!

NAJA Scholarship deadline NAJA Scholarship deadline
The New York University Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute is proud to offer a new full-tuition scholarship to a Native American Journalism Association (NAJA) member admitted to one of the ten NYU Journalism graduate programs in the fall of 2021. This full tuition scholarship is worth greater than $70,000.
The goal of the NYU Journalism-NAJA scholarship is to support an exceptional journalist who might not otherwise have the opportunity to earn a graduate journalism degree in one of the school’s top-level NYU graduate journalism programs.  Interested candidates only need to complete the regular NYU Journalism application.

Proof of membership in NAJA must be submitted at the time of accepting the fellowship award. Applicants may join NAJA upon receiving the offer. Please note that membership in the NAJA is open to individuals of all racial backgrounds, and this scholarship is as well.

The deadline to apply is Feb. 10, 2021. Some flexibility is available with the deadline and interested candidates should contact NYU with any extension requests.
