The NYWICI Foundation, in conjunction with NYWICI, annually awards scholarships based on academic excellence, need, and involvement in the field of communications. We award up to $10,000 per scholarship.

 

Scholarships are open to graduating high school seniors and undergraduate and graduate students who intend to pursue or further a career in communications. To be eligible, you must have an overall GPA of 3.2 or better (or the recalculated high school equivalent) and be a permanent resident of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, or Pennsylvania or be an undergraduate studying at a college or university in the five boroughs of New York City.  Graduate students must be members of NYWICI in good standing. An applicant must be majoring or (for high school seniors) declaring a major in a communications-related field, including but not limited to advertising, broadcasting, communications, English, film, journalism, marketing, new media, or public relations.

 

We are accepting applications for the 2010-11 academic year and they must be postmarked by Friday, January 29.
