Journalism Contests

McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism

April 14, 2025
_

Do you -- or a reporter you know -- have a great idea for high-impact investigative or enterprise story that "Follows the Money," but few resources to take it on?

Applications are now open for the Spring 2025 McGraw Fellowships for Business Journalism, an initiative of the Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. The Fellowships provide experienced journalists with a grant up to $15,000 and the editorial support needed to produce deeply reported enterprise and investigative stories with a strong economic or financial angle. The deadline to apply is April 14, 2025. Previous McGraw Fellows have explored a wide variety of issues — and you don’t need to be a business reporter to apply. Many have been generalists, or cover areas such as health care, inequality or the environment. Given the enormous changes in federal spending and policy priorities now taking place in Washington DC, we are particularly interested in story proposals that examine the impact of these changes during this round. The Fellowship is open to both freelance and staff journalists in all forms of media with at least five years’ professional experience. Journalists from diverse backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply. If you’d like to learn more, go to www.mcgrawcenter.org, contact us at mcgrawcenter@journalism.cuny.edu or join us on Zoom for McGraw Fellowship Office Hours every Tuesday from 3/4/25 to 4/8/25 at 12-1 pm ET. We accept applications twice a year; Fall 2025 applications will be due Oct. 13, 2025.
