Each fellow is free to design an individual course of study. Some pursue classes in a reporting specialty.

There is no nomination process.

Candidates nominate themselves by submitting an application and supplementary materials.

There is no age limit.

There are no academic prerequisites. No college degree is required.

The Nieman Fellowships are open to international journalists each year.
