Your real odds
The 2025 cohort had four fellows, so you are competing nationally for a very small number of spots.
This is an annual program run in partnership with Adobe and NAACP Studios, and the program is relatively new and still growing, which means the applicant pool and selection criteria are both still taking shape.

Worth knowing
Fellows work on live NAACP Studios productions and receive a full video editor's kit plus a 3-year Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, so the total value of the fellowship well exceeds the $14,000 stipend, and most applicants underestimate that gap.
