Kroc Fellowships

The NPR Kroc Fellowship was established to identify and develop a new generation of extraordinary journalists for the public radio system.

NPR is looking for a diverse pool of applicants who aspire to work in public radio. Candidates must be just completing college or graduate school, or be out of school for one year or less as of December 31, 2007. They do not need journalism or radio experience, but must demonstrate exceptional potential and drive.

Three Kroc Fellows will be accepted into the program this year. The Fellowship begins on August 20, 2007, and lasts one year. It includes a stipend of more than $37,000, plus benefits, which includes paid vacation. Fellows will get rigorous, hands-on training in every aspect of public radio journalism — writing, reporting, producing and editing, for both radio and the Web. Kroc Fellows will work primarily at NPR headquarters in Washington D.C., though each Fellowship will include an assignment to an NPR member station.

Applications will be accepted beginning November 1, 2007 but must be postmarked no later than December 31, 2007. Visit www.npr.org/fellowships for complete details and to download an application.
