The National Press Foundation is offering two all-expenses-paid fellowships for the annual Wharton Seminars for Business Journalists at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, from October 16-18, 2023.
The seminars offer participants an opportunity to expand their knowledge of business by attending courses conducted by leading Wharton faculty, hearing guest lectures by business leaders, and competing in an intensive, computer-simulated strategic management exercise.
Cost
- The fellowship includes full tuition, housing, most meals and round-trip transportation.
Eligibility

- All U.S.-based journalists whose work represents the highest standards of business journalism are eligible to apply.
Application
