NLGJA: The Association of LGBTQ+ Journalists is now accepting applications for two scholarships supporting LGBTQ+ journalism students.

The Leroy F. Aarons Scholarship awards up to $5,000 in tuition assistance to an LGBTQ+ student committed to a journalism career and to advancing fair, accurate coverage of the LGBTQ+ community. The Kay Longcope Scholarship awards up to $3,000 in tuition assistance to an LGBTQ+ student of color who plans to build a journalism career with that same dedication.

Both scholarships are open to current or incoming undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in a U.S. community college or four-year university. The deadline to apply is midnight ET on Friday, May 15.
