Submissions for ’25-’26 Edition

We only accept work from Oregon State University students. The submission deadline is December 5 at 11:59pm PST. Fill out the required fields and attach up to five submissions. If you submit more than five pieces (including cloud links for audio/video and raw files for visual/written; and including multiple submission forms from one artist) we will ONLY consider the first five. Please keep in mind that the overall total of file uploads cannot exceed 40 MB. If your files exceed 40 MB, please submit another form.

All content submitted for magazine consideration may also be published on our website and/or social media. We reserve the right to format prose or visual pieces based on what is best suited for the print edition. We forbid the use of AI in the creation of your submissions. If you have any questions, email us at [email protected].

Read the following for submission guidelines:

The theme for this year’s issue of PRISM is Visions. How your submission relates to the theme is up to your interpretation but please explain its connection in your artist statement. For more information or inspiration on the theme, visit our blog post.

Titles are required for all submissions. Do not put “Untitled” as your title. If your piece does not have a title, it will not be considered for publication.

Literary Submissions

700-word limit for prose pieces, use a readable 12-point font, save as pdf or doc only. If you are submitting an excerpt from a longer work, please make a note at the top of page. DO NOT write your name anywhere in the file(s) you upload.

Visual Art Submission

300 PPI quality image, JPG or PNG format. Do not have your name anywhere in the file(s) you upload. (Note: an illegible signature is fine.)

Video & Audio Submissions

Under 20 minutes long, submit by sharing a Google Drive or other cloud sharing link to your file rather than uploading the file directly. Use the text submission boxes titled ‘video or audio link’ to copy and paste the link into the form.

And remember to have fun! Our theme is meant to provide a starting point, and we are looking forward to seeing the inspiration you draw from it. We can’t wait to see what you submit!
