Job description

McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism

Apply by 10 / 13 : Grants up to $15K for Education Stories that “Follow the Money”

Applications are now open for the Fall 2025 McGraw Fellowships for Business Journalism. If you have a great idea for a high-impact education story that “Follows the Money” but need funds to get it done, we’d love to hear from you.

The McGraw Fellowships, an initiative of the Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY, provide experienced journalists with a grant up to $15,000 and the editorial support needed to produce deeply reported enterprise and investigative stories that delve into critical issues related to the economy, finance or business. Given the enormous changes in federal spending and policy priorities now taking place in Washington DC, we are particularly interested in story proposals that examine the impact of these changes. Both freelance and staff journalists in all forms of media with at least five years’ professional experience are eligible. Journalists from diverse backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.

The upcoming deadline to apply is October 13, 2025

Previous McGraw Fellows have explored a wide variety of topics — and you don’t need to be a business reporter to apply. Many have been generalists, or followed beats such as education, health care, the environment or corporate accountability. Here are some examples of their work :

  • Inside the controversial tree farms powering Apple’s carbon neutral goals — MIT Tech Review
  • FDA Approved – And Ineffective — The Lever
  • Developers See Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal as an Alluring New Waterfront. But for Years, It Stunk — Inside Climate News
  • The Revolution That Died on Its Way to Dinner — NY Times
  • ‘They Were Traumatized’ : How a Private Equity-Associated Lender Helped Precipitate a Nursing Home Implosion — Politico
  • Across America clean energy plants are being banned faster than they’re being built — USA Today
  • Black Farmers and Ranchers : It’s a Dying Deal — Center for Public Integrity
  • The Problem with PLUS : How Parents Buckle Under the Weight of College Debt — US News & World Report
  • Private equity sold them a dream of home ownership. They got evicted instead. — Insider.com
  • Who Killed Overtime Pay? — Capital & Main
  • Hurricane fallout creates financial ruin for Puerto Rico seniors with reverse mortgages — USA Today and Centro de Periodismo Investigativo
  • In Texas, teachers see savings eroded by bad bets on exotic stocks — The Street

Interested, but have questions about the program or a story idea you’d like to discuss? Please join us on Zoom for our McGraw Fellowship Office Hours, which we will hold every Thursday at 12-1 pm ET through 10 / 9 / 25. You’ll also find more information and an FAQ at www.mcgrawcenter.org, or you can contact us directly at mcgrawcenter@journalism.cuny.edu. We accept applications twice a year, in fall and spring. Spring 2026 applications will be due April 13, 2026.

The McGraw Center for Business Journalism was established at the Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY in 2014 by the family of the late Harold W. McGraw, Jr., former chairman and CEO of McGraw-Hill and long-time publisher of BusinessWeek magazine. The Center is dedicated to enhancing the depth and quality of business and economic news coverage through training, student scholarships and support for veteran journalists.

The Newmark Graduate School of Journalism in midtown Manhattan is the only publicly supported graduate journalism school in the Northeast. Led by Dean Graciela Mochkofsky, the School offers 16-month Master’s degree programs in Journalism and in Spanish Language Journalism.
