Flint Hills Publications Workshop – Scholarships
Our vision-high school journalism matters more than ever.
The student scholarship deadline is Thursday, June 1 at 5:00 p.m.
The Flint Hills Publication Workshop, in cooperation with the A.Q Miller School of Journalism at K-State, knows that high school journalism matters in our state. We believe in giving an opportunity to all high school journalists to be a part of our summer experience in Kedzie Hall.
What scholarships do we offer?
Through the generosity of the A.Q Miller School of Journalism, The Collegian Media Group will be offering six full-ride student scholarships to our journalism workshop, July 16-18, 2023, to cover tuition, room and board, and meals throughout your stay at the Flint Hills Publication Workshop.
Four 1st Generation Student Scholarships
Our 1st generation student scholarships are aimed at high school sophomores and juniors who will be the first in their family to attend a college/university in the foreseeable future.
Four Diversity Scholarships
This specific scholarship promotes equal journalistic opportunities for minority students; this includes race, cultural background and sexual orientation.
Four Need-Based Scholarships
We at the Collegian Media Group believe that all student journalists should have the ability to better themselves professionally through our summer journalism camp, and this scholarship targets students whose families have experienced financial hardships in the past year or two.
