Internship deadline extended

The Dow Jones News Fund has extended the deadline to apply for summer 2013 internships in digital, news and sports editing and business reporting to Nov. 8 because of Hurricane Sandy. The extension includes completing the reporting and editing exams.

Applications are online on the Fund's website at https://www.newsfund.org.
For more details, visit the College Internships page.

Participating news organizations must pay interns at least $350 per week for a minimum of 10 weeks. The average salary is $450 per week.

Interns will be trained at Dow Jones headquarters in New York and several college campuses -- the University of Missouri, Western Kentucky University, Temple University, Penn State University, the University of Nebraska and the University of Texas -- before reporting to work. The Fund covers travel costs to and from training then to newsrooms. Students who return to school after a successful internship will receive $1,000 college scholarships.
