2025 VA Journalist of the Year Application Checklist

Mary Kay Downes, JEA State Director
January 6, 2025

Virginia Journalist of the Year applications materials MUST be received ([email protected]) by 11:59 p.m. Feb. 15, 2025.

In addition to the links below, feel free to share this checklist with any students who are applying or thinking of applying.

Please note two things: students cannot apply directly to the national competition. They must go through the state competition first. I will submit the winner’s application by the March national deadline.

Send questions to Mary Kay Downes ([email protected]).
