How much is the fellowship stipend and what does it cover?
All stipends are awarded on the basis of length of fellowship and project need, for up to $50,000 for a nine-month fellowship. Applicants need to submit a budget outline and an estimated timeframe for their project, and the Kaiser Media Fellowships Program, in conjunction with the National Advisory Committee, awards each Fellow a stipend that takes this into account. In addition to the stipend, the fellowship program also covers project expenses, including travel, laptop and telephone/internet. Academic coursework is an option, although not required.
