LIN Expands Minority Training Program

LIN Media has expanded the eligibility for its Minority Scholarship and Training Program to both sophomores and juniors, and is now accepting applications until March 31. The company will award one broadcast television scholarship/internship and one digital media scholarship/internship in May, to commence this summer.

Each student will receive either a one-year or two-year scholarship for up to $10,000 per year, which can be used toward tuition, fees, books and room and board. In addition, LIN Media will provide each student with hands-on training through a paid internship program at one of its television stations or digital businesses around the country.

The Minority Scholarship recipients will be assigned full-time positions at LIN Media upon graduation and successful completion of the training program.

The application and criteria for LIN Media’s Minority Scholarship and Training Program can be accessed via the company’s website here.
