MÁRCIO MOREIRA MULTICULTURAL FELLOWSHIP

The Márcio Moreira Multicultural Fellowship was created in partnership with McCann Worldgroup and the Black Alumni of Pratt to honor the late creative executive and former Vice Chairman of McCann Worldgroup, Márcio Moreira. It recognizes Pratt’s top academic students by offering three selected recipients paid summer internships (June–August) at one of McCann Worldgroup’s highly awarded creative agencies in New York City. One of the three students will also have the chance to win a $5,000 scholarship, but must complete the full duration of their internships to be eligible. This fellowship is open to Junior students in the Communication Design, Film and Video, Writing, Digital Arts, and Photography departments. Ideal candidates are creative, innovative thinkers, and budding entrepreneurs who embody collaboration, entrepreneurial spirit, integrity, curiosity, and persistence. 

PRATT PRE-COLLEGE PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIP

Each year BAP awards scholarships to high school juniors and seniors who wish to attend Pratt’s Pre-College Summer Program. An arts competition, judged by BAP Advisory Council Members, Pratt faculty, staff, and students, is held to select the awardees. Please review the eligibility qualifications and application form carefully.
