The Freedom Forum-NCAA Sports-Journalism Scholarship Program

The Freedom Forum, through a grant to the NCAA, supports eight $3,000 scholarships to college juniors who have career goals in sports journalism and major in journalism or have experience in campus sports journalism.

The program assists deserving full-time students in their final year of study and is designed to foster freedoms of speech and press while promoting quality sports journalism education at the collegiate level

Applications for these scholarships are available in late August from the institution's NCAA faculty athletics representative, journalism department or school newspaper office.
