U.S. Studies Online is now considering international submissions

U.S. Studies Online is the official postgraduate journal of the British Association for American Studies. Originally founded to enable postgraduate students at British universities to have their work published in a refereed environment of the highest quality, the journal has now decided to open the submissions process to postgraduate students from outside Britain, as well.
