How does this appeal to its audience? 
By using bold colours to highlight its title it is easier for its audience to understand what magazine it is. It would also appeal to its audience as it is giving them help and advice if they are finding college difficult. The picture which is used on the front is also the same age of the person which this magazine would apply for.

How can you tell its audience?
By using a girl as there front cover who looks about 16 makes it clear to people that this is a magazine with the target audience of people who are thinking of going to college. Not only people who are at college but people who are at the college.

The layout - images, fonts sizes?
The layout is clear and easy for its audience to understand, the colours stand out and give off a professional look.
                                                   
How does this appeal to its auidence? This front cover would appeal to its auidence as it is not full of a lot of information which could lead to the target auidence not reading it because it could be boring. The magazine articles also would appeal to its auidence who would be around 16-18, who are looking to go to Universty or who are currently at this campus.

How can you tell its audience? I believe the audience are people between the ages 16-18, the front cover helps us to have a clear view on its audience by the person they have used on the front cover. By using the story lines "Win an LG shine" this would make people want to read it more.

The layout - images, font sizes? The image which they have used to be the main cover again helps to appeal to its audience. Also the title "Campus Life" attracts the readers.

                                                    
How does this appeal to its auidence?
By having three simple colours on the front cover it is easier for people to read and extract information from it. By having an highlighted title saying "alternate route" this would make the audience want to read this as they could be looking for a different route.
How can you tell its audience? Again the use of the image of a young girl shows its audience, and what she is dressed clearly shows what she is trying to advertise what her college is portraying.

The layout - images, font sizes?
The fonts and the story lines apply to its audience as they are offering a different route to people.
