ASNE/MCT Campus High School Newspaper Service

To get started

To apply, go to this page. We will need :

  • The completed form/online ticket
  • A school credit card or a school check for $100 (We do not accept POs.). We will also accept personal credit card or personal checks provided the teacher will be reimbursed.
  • One copy of the most recent edition of your school newspaper (or URL if your newspaper is online). If you do not have paper, write "No paper yet" on the application.

ASNE and McClatchy/Tribune Information Services have teamed up to offer a wire service to high school newspapers that dramatically improves the resources available to scholastic journalism.

MCT Campus is provided to hundreds of college newspapers for an annual fee. Through an exclusive arrangement with ASNE, MCT Campus is offering stories, photos, graphics, illustrations and Web content to high school newspapers.

ASNE Foundation is charging a one-time application fee of $100. There are no other charges.

Every week, MCT Campus moves about 125 news and feature stories, 20 story packages, five news graphics and four feature graphics, eight editorial cartoons, special Web content, plus horoscopes, crosswords and comics.

By signing up with ASNE, you will have access to a moving two weeks' worth of visual material, which is updated constantly. You are not cut off the service after two weeks. What it means is that after two weeks, material goes into a paid archive. Therefore, you should check the wire at least once a week and download what you need now and might need in the future.

More than 1,700 high school newspapers have already signed up for the service.

MCT -- not ASNE -- controls access to the archive. There are more than 1 million images and stories in it. MCT charges an additional fee for access. To see everything that MCT Campus has to offer, please explore this link
