Apply to intern with The Tab Pitt
You can get course credits
The Tab is America’s leading college news network. You might have heard of us because we broke the story about Malia Obama going to Harvard and from when we asked Donald Trump what he is going to do for people leaving college.
At Pitt we have broken stories about about politicians like Bernie coming to campus, and interviewed Pitt athletes like Tyler Boyd about their experiences in the NFL draft.
The Tab has a grassroots network of the most talented student reporters at over 70 colleges in the US, and a global audience of five million readers.
Applications are now open for The Tab Pitt Fellowship. The Fellowship is a remote internship recognized by leading media companies and journalism schools, available to the most talented student journalists and writers.
Fellows will provide sharp reporting on campus life, and will also have the opportunity to cover election events for Electoral College, and contribute to Babe, the fastest growing women’s site on the internet.

There are ten spots on The Tab Fellowship at each school.
Tab Fellows produce three stories a month, and they work with a campus editor and a professional journalist in New York to write quality stories with sharp angles.
Rewards include limited edition Tab merchandise, LinkedIn recommendations from senior journalists, and internship opportunities at The Tab’s New York office and their media partners.
Although The Tab has only been in the States for a year, we have already had stories with weekly traffic surpassing the biggest stories in publications like The Washington Post, and The New York Times.
These articles were written by students like you, and with the right ideas, your stories could be next.
For questions about applying, reach out to your campus editor Melanie Haas at [email protected], or our campus representative in NY, [email protected].
This isn’t your school newspaper.
Our first informational meeting will be at Schenley Plaza on September 2nd. Exact time and location TBD. Check back for details.
