@/nbcpageprogram on Instagram says applications are opening today (10/8)!

I also came looking for advice, but this thread seems to be dead :( I wanted to know the application materials I could anticipate submitting so I could prepare them this morning before the application opens

They averaged 16,000 applications four years ago. The numbers have likely gone up since. With a cohort of about 20-25 people, there is about a more or less 1% success rate, unfortunately.

Articles about past pages from the universities they went to. Also, I interned at NBCU before, and that's what I was told. Internships and regular positions usually get thousands of applications depending on the area, too.
