Sign up.

Firstly, register yourself at academicminds.co.uk. We will vet you, carrying out a qualifications check – remember, we’re looking for scholars who have studied at Oxbridge, red-bricks or pre-eminent international universities and have a track record of academic excellence. A First or 2:1 degree is essential.

If we approve your qualifications, there’s then a writing test, typically between 1,000 and 1,300 words, on your specialist subject.

A phone interview follows, and then a reference check. Finally, you will receive an induction on how to be a successful freelancer with us.

Ours is a thorough process designed to admit only the best. Our writers are proud that years of outstanding academic achievement have earned them the right to be part of such a prestigious institution.
