“New York, NY (May 8, 2023)- Columbia University today announces the 2023 Pulitzer Prizes, awarded on the recommendation of the Pulitzer Prize Board.
By January 25 of every year, about 1,100 journalism entries have been submitted to the Pulitzer entry website, where they will be reviewed by jurors. Those entries may be made by any individual based on material coming from a United States newspaper, magazine or news site that publishes regularly during the calendar year and adheres to the highest journalistic principles. In late February, more than 80 editors, publishers, writers, and educators gather in the School of Journalism to judge the entries in the 15 journalism categories. More than 2,500 entries are submitted each year in the Pulitzer Prize competitions, and only 23 awards are normally made. The awards are the culmination of a year-long process that begins early in the year with the appointment of more than 100 distinguished judges who serve on 22 separate juries and are asked to make three nominations in each of the 23 categories.”
“23. What do Pulitzer Prize winners get when they win? There are 22 Pulitzer categories. In 21 of those categories the winners receive a $15,000 cash award and a certificate. Only the winner in the Public Service category of the Journalism competition is awarded a gold medal. The Public Service prize is always awarded to a news organization, not an individual, although an individual may be named in the citation.”
