The Virginia SPJ,SDX Educational Foundation invites applications from students at accredited Virginia colleges and universities for fellowships to support their summer 2022 internships at print and electronic news organizations. Each fellowship will include a cash stipend ranging from $500 to $1,500, which can be used for expenses incurred in performing a supervised, full-time summer internship of at least six weeks.
The application deadline is April 15.
The amount of each stipend will be determined by the foundation trustees based on an applicant’s estimated out-of-pocket internship costs, such as living expenses, equipment, professional attire, travel costs, publications, subscriptions, supplies and so on. Fellowship winners will be announced in May.
The fellowship recipients each will be responsible for securing an internship, which can be paid or unpaid.
Stipends will be paid upon independent confirmation of an internship offer by the fellow’s host news organization. An evaluation provided by the fellow’s supervisor will be required upon completion of the internship.
