Are you a journalist with a great idea for a high-impact story that “Follows the Money,” but few resources to get it done? The McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism – Fall 2022 would like to hear from you.

The Harold W. McGraw, Jr. Center for Business Journalism provides experienced journalists with grants up to $15,000 and the editorial support needed to produce deeply reported enterprise and investigative stories that delve into critical economic, financial or business issues across a wide array of subjects. You don’t need to be a business reporter to apply; many of their previous Fellows have been generalists, or cover beats such as health care, education or the environment. Others have focused on issues such as economic inequality or corporate accountability.

Benefits from McGraw Fellowship

• The Fellowship provides a grant of up to $15,000 for each project. The exact amount will depend on the time it takes to complete the project and the expenses needed. Freelance journalists may use some of the funding as a stipend for living expenses during the Fellowship.

Eligibility for McGraw Fellowship

• Open to anyone with at least five years professional experience in journalism.
• Freelance journalists, as well as reporters and editors currently working at a news organization or a journalism non-profit, may apply.

Application of McGraw Fellowship

Applicants should submit a well-focused story proposal of no more than three pages through the accompanying online form.

Think of it as pitch, much like you would submit to an editor at a newspaper, magazine, audio or digital outlet: give them enough preliminary reporting and documentation to demonstrate that the story is solid. The proposal should highlight what’s new and significant about the story, why it matters and what its potential impact might be.

The proposal should also note where significant stories on the subject have run elsewhere and how the proposed piece would differ. Applicants should also briefly outline a proposed reporting plan and a timeline for completing the story. And while you don’t need to have a media outlet lined up for your story before you apply, if you do have one, let them know that in your proposal.
