NYU'S OFFICIAL
INDEPENDENT STUDENT
NEWSPAPER
welcome.It is with great pleasure that I introduce the Washing-ton Square News, the award-winning student newspa-per of New York University—America’s largest private university. Let us help you cut through the saturated Village consumer market and reach your target de-mographic: our university community. Since 1973, our newspaper has served as the source of news for the NYU community of 66,000 students, faculty, and staff. From restaurant specials and fash-ion discounts, to event and entertainment advertise-ments, we want to guide our readers to the best busi-nesses in town! Our newspaper publishes 5,500 copies a week, every Monday during the academic year. We distribute to over 40 locations in lower Manhattan from Gramer-cy to the Lafayette Street residence hall in SoHo. You will find a WSN newsstand in virtually every NYU res-idence hall, administrative building, library, and sports facility. Returning advertisers will notice that we have rede-signed our website (nyunews.com), which receives 200,000 online impressions per month, and have launched a brand new mobile news app. Our e-deliv-ery service is also growing daily.
Our business office prides itself on providing atten-tive and courteous service, with advertising options tailored to your needs. Any of our friendly managers or sales representatives will be happy to assist you. We also have a talented design agency should you need help with your artwork or any other creative print, digital, or multimedia projects. Thank you for taking the time to introduce your busi-ness to our readership, an ethnically diverse, intelli-gent community that is constantly seeking new expe-riences. We encourage you to make an appointment and visit our office, located at 838 Broadway.
Place a campaign and join the NYU community!

Column Inches ExplainedIn order to line up ads with the editorial content of the newspaper, ad width is measured in columns, rather than inches. Ad height is measured in inches. A “column inch” is a measure of area, equal to one column wide multiplyed by one inch high.A column is about, but not exactly, 1.88in wide. See below for exact conversions.
1 columns = 1.88 inches2 columns = 3.91 inches3 columns = 5.94 inches
4 columns = 7.97 inches5 columns = 10.0 inches
Note: Ad height is still measured in inches.
Color or No Color?Color can make your ad much more eye-catching.
Here are the different color options that are available.
