The Emerson Review

There are presently no open calls for submissions.

The Emerson Review is Emerson College’s oldest literary
magazine, and strives to publish meaningful fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and
artwork each year. We accept submissions between August 1 and February 1 for our annual issue, which is
published in April. 

Submissions are reviewed by our genre editors and general
reading staff, who are all undergraduate students at Emerson College. Expect
a response within two months; we frequently include comments in our decision
emails.

Simultaneous submissions for multiple genres are
okay, as long as each submission follows the respective category guidelines. Please note that we will not accept works that have already been published or are set to be published. If applicable, please include any trigger warnings in the header of your submission.

Every contributor receives three complimentary copies of
the issue in which their work appears. Additionally, we will be paying contributors. Amount TBD. We will update this page and notify contributors when the amount is finalized. Unfortunately, due to legality issues, we cannot pay Emerson College students at this time.

We look forward to seeing your work!
