The Jack Shelley Scholarship is presented by the Northwest Broadcast News Association to recognize outstanding promise in the field of broadcasting. The NBNA awards one $1,250 scholarship each year to be used for broadcast education.
Applicants must be full-time college or university students with an anticipated graduation date of August ’14 or later. The scholarship is awarded based on the following three criteria: dedication to broadcast journalism as a career; academic achievement; and experience in the field of broadcast journalism, which includes internships, part-time or full-time jobs and volunteer work. The award is named for the late Jack Shelley, long-time anchor and News Director at WHO/Des Moines and Professor Emeritus at Iowa State University.
