<p>This may be a bit of a dumb question, but when grad apps ask you to list publications and articles published, this refers only to peer reviewed academic journals, right?</p>
<p>The reason why I ask is that I have been working as a journalist since I graduated, so I have published quite a few articles, but these of course are in newspapers and magazines. So i wouldn't list them under articles publsihed in my grad apps, would I?</p>
<p>What sort of graduate program is it?</p>
<p>Are you applying to journalism school? If so, I think they're referring to newspaper/magazine articles.</p>
<p>no, i decided against j-school for a number of reasons, though i haven't ruled out returning to journalism as a career after graduate school.
I am applying to masters degrees in East Asian Studies. So any thoughts to the original question? thanks!

<p>They mean academic articles. </p>
<p>There is a "however" though: if you've published relevant articles as a journalist you should include them under a sub-head like "Non-academic Publications". Take a look at the CV's of some professors in your field to see just how they do it.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
