Washington Square Review (usually shortened to ON SQU) is a nationally distributed literary magazine that publishes stories, poems, essays and reviews, many of which are later reprinted in annual anthologies. It is the graduate equivalent of NYU Local and Washington Square News.
Founded in 1996, the journal is based at New York University and edited by students of the university's Graduate Creative Writing Program. The Washington Square Review sponsors an annual literary contest and hosts biannual benefit readings in New York City.
