The Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute of New York University offers annually The Reporting Award, [1] a grant to support a significant work of journalism in any medium on an under-reported topic in the public interest. Ineligible to apply are NYU affiliates, NYU graduates with degrees dated three years prior and thereafter, and journalists holding staff positions at established media outlets that are in a position to fund such projects on their own. The institute will select one or several winners of the Reporting Award. The total award comprises $2,500 on announcement of the winning proposal and up to an additional $10,000 on completion of the project. Deadline: Mar 18, 2024.

2025: The Reporting Award will be on hiatus for one year. We expect applications to open next year in January 2026.
