Fellowship for foreign journalists

Here's a journalism fellowship opportunity for non-U.S. journalists:

The Humphrey Fellowship Program offers a 10-month stay at a journalism college in the United States to study journalism and undertake professional affiliations at U.S. news organizations.

"The programme includes financial support for studies, travel, workshops and seminars, a monthly stipend, funds for books, and a computer subsidy," according to the website. "Applicants should have a minimum of five years of substantial professional experience, limited or no experience in the U.S., and demonstrated leadership qualities and commitment to their communities. Most applicants have English skills and undergraduate degrees, but some exceptions are allowed."

Nominations are due by Oct. 1, so get working on your application ASAP.
