Portfolio was founded five years ago in order to help NYU Journalism graduate students learn how to develop a coherent,
well-reported body of work. In the fall of 2009, its work will continue within the new Literary Reportage
concentration. Applicants interested in pursuing the kinds of pieces published by Portfolio students
should apply directly to Literary Reportage.
During the transitional 2009-2010 period, select students from other programs and concentrations may still apply to participate in the Portfolio writing seminars. Acceptance will depend on the strength of your application and the space available to non-Literary Reportage students.
