Out of concern for the health and safety of Fellowship students and staff, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 CBC-UNC Diversity Fellowship. We hope to resume the program in 2022. The application period for the 2022 Fellowship will open in the fall of 2021. Here is some advice from our Fellowship alumni for students embarking on their job searches in television news.

Each spring, WRAL and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill welcome a dozen student journalists from across the country to participate in an intensive program to prepare them for future broadcast media careers. The young journalists collaborate in groups and individually to craft stories. They also enjoy résumé/reel critiques and the production of their own newscast. The journalists-in-training write stories that are posted to WRAL.com and mated with the on-air report that the students researched and produced for their fellowship newscast.
