Submit to the Applause Journal

Applause is an annual online journal staffed by students at the University of Arkansas Fort Smith. We want to showcase the best undergraduate writers across the country and the globe.


We only consider previously unpublished work from currently enrolled undergraduate writers, and we ask for First North American Serial Rights. Work selected for publication will receive publication through our website and national exposure through our social media. Our response time is approximately three months.

We only accept submissions through our online submission manager.
