Pegasus Submission Form

Procedures for Submitting Work

Any Delaware County Community College student is invited to submit work for consideration for publication in Pegasus, the College’s literary magazine.

For full consideration, work should be submitted according to the guidelines (see below). Entries are reviewed and considered for selection by a jury of students and faculty based on a specific set of criteria. Only the coordinators know the authorship of each work until the selection process is complete.

All items of short fiction, creative nonfiction, drama, artwork, or photography must be submitted electronically with this form and all of its required fields complete.
Please see the most recent Pegasus ad in Canvas for deadlines.
