The U is an online magazine (www.theu.co.uk) that has recently been set up with a target audience of university students, we are looking for writers who are currently at university to write articles and range of topics including music, design, style, sport and entertainment. To apply, please use the contact from below and tell us about yourself, which topics you would be interested in writing about and a previous piece you have written.

What type of blogs are you looking for?:

We are looking for our writers to cover the topics which take their interest or that they have a considerable amount of experience in. In the music topic, we are looking for writers who are up to date on current releases, you do not have to write about all genres of music, specialisation is preferred. In the design topic, we are looking for writers who take an interest in current projects and would be able to write about recently completed projects including projects that have been undertaken by students. In the style topic, we are looking for writers who are interested in covering both mainstream collections and indie/streetwear brands; writers with their own fashion blogs would be preferred. In the sports topic, we are looking for writers who are able to cover university sports, for obvious logistical reasons we only expect a writer to cover one or two sports from their own university, the ability to provide pictures would be preferred.

Preferred geographic location of the blogger:

United Kingdom

How might you compensate the blogger?

Nothing

How else might you compensate the blogger?

As a business, we are not yet in a financial position to pay our writers. However, we do offer writers the opportunity gain experience and exposure; and in the future when we are more developed as a business we will recognise those writers who have been with us since the early stages.
