Ian Parry Scholarship For Young Photo Journalists 2016 

Thank you for your interest in the Ian Parry Scholarship.
You can apply for the Ian Parry Scholarship now via the online application platform.

The application deadline for the Ian Parry Scholarship 2016 is 7th July 2016.

This year, 2016, we have made significant adjustments to the Scholarship awards.

There will now be two awards, The Award for Achievement and the Award for Potential, the entry criteria for both will remain the same and the judges will make their decisions based on the individual merits and appropriateness of the entries.

We have also introduced a year long Mentorship Programme for the winner of the Award for Potential.

Entrants must submit a portfolio and a brief but clear proposal of a project they would undertake if they won the scholarship.

The award is open to all full time students from any country of any age including recently (within the last year) graduated students and BA, MA and MFA students. It is also open to photographers (not attending a course) from any country who are 24 years old or younger.

It is important to read the entry criteria, failure to meet the requirements will eliminate the entry.

• Send a 12 image portfolio, which can be a photographic essay or single images with clear captions for each image.
• If sending a photographic essay, it does not have to be related to your project proposal.
• A brief and clear proposal of a project you wish to undertake should you win, mapping out the scope and purpose of your project.
• You should include your research and a basic budget with your proposal.
• There is no fee for entry.

The award will be judged by our Patron Don McCullin, our Trustees and invited judges, leading figures from the international photographic community.
