OFU

An Official Fanfiction University is a school for fanfiction writers to improve their knowledge and portrayals of canon. The creator of the first OFU is Miss Cam, who is responsible for the Official Fanfiction University of Middle-earth. Since the first OFU, close to a hundred spin-offs have been written. These are all linked here.

Rules of OFUs, written and unwritten
It is traditional for an OFU to be headed by a Headmaster/mistress who is an incarnation of the author of the OFU. Assisting that character is a number of canon characters who are made into staff members for the duration of the university. The OFU usually follows one original character who, caught at bad writing, is forced to attend the school. In order for other students to attend, readers submit applications to the OFU head, whereupon they are fictionalized and rendered as whatever species they wrote down. (Be careful what you wish for, new applicants!)

OFUs are infamous for their exacting standards of behavior, and fans who treat canon or grammar poorly are soundly admonished, usually with the help of the university minis. Only one OFU is allowed per fandom; in order to create one, it is generally the done thing to let the Board know. This isn't a prerequisite, but most people do it anyway. Do not go to Miss Cam over it; she no longer gets involved with OFUs.
