About the Olympiad
The Journalism Olympiad is a global news reporting tournament that gives you a chance to do interviews, investigate, fact check, and craft a story worth publishing.
Face off against high school students for a chance to win prizes, boost your college applications, and see if you're ready to learn how to be a journalist.
Compete nationally, win globally.
The Journalism Olympiad is an individual tournament where participants will be asked to go out and find a story to then craft a newsworthy narrative. Participants will be expected to investigate, interview, research, fact check, and write an article that we will publish on our website.
All submissions will be done in article format where participants will be asked to submit their work (with a 1000 word limit for the national round and a 1500 word limit for the international round) to info@journalismolympiad.org.
The Olympiad will be entirely online and is NOT a team tournament.
