Applications for the Princeton Summer Journalism Program, an all expense paid summer camp and college mentoring program for students from low-income backgrounds, are now open. Pass it along! 

Who is eligible? This program is intended for low-income students with excellent academic records who are committed to pursuing a career in journalism. To apply for the program, you must meet the following qualifications:

- You must currently be a junior in high school.
- You must live in the United States.
