Princeton
University Summer Journalism Program
All
expenses, including travel costs to and from Princeton
, will be paid for. This will be the sixth year of the
program, and if this summer is anything like the last
five, it will be a great experience. Our last five classes
of journalists were taught by writers from The Washington
Post, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Miami Herald, and
The New Republic; toured The New York Times and ABC News,
meeting with editors and producers; attended and covered
Yankees, Mets, Jets and Liberty games; and reported, wrote,
edited, designed, and produced a 12-page edition of The
Princeton Summer Journal on the program's final day.
The
program is also designed to give students a taste of what
life is like at one of the best colleges in the country
- students live on campus and eat in one of the university's
cafeterias. Students meet with the Princeton
University 's president and the school's dean of admissions
- people who are able to offer guidance on the difficult
decisions about college that high school students face.
The program is staffed by young alumni of Princeton, current
Princeton students, and students who attended the program
in past summers.
To
apply for the program, you must meet the following qualifications:
1) You must be entering your junior or senior year of
high school in fall 2007.
2) You must have at least a 3.0 grade point average (out
of 4.0).
3) You must have demonstrated an interest in journalism.
4) The combined income of your custodial parent(s)/guardian(s)
plus child support payments, if any, must not exceed $45,000.
This
program is intended for students from underresourced financial
backgrounds. If the combined income of your custodial
parent(s)/guardian(s) plus child support payments, if
any, exceeds $45,000 and you still wish to
apply, you can attach a note explaining why you believe
your family qualifies as financially underresourced.
The
application must be postmarked by February 15th. More
information and the application materials are available
