TRANSCRIPT
Information for Submitting Articles to Law Reviews & Journals _____
January 2019
The following are two charts useful for the law review/journal article submission process. The first
chart contains information gathered from the journals’ websites about the following topics:
Methods for submitting an article (such as by e-mail, ExpressO, Scholastica, or regular mail);
Any special formatting requirements;
How to request an expedited review; and
How to withdraw an article after it has been accepted for publication elsewhere.
The second chart contains information about rankings of the journals and the law schools associated
with them. The first three columns are the overall ranking, academic/peer assessment score, and
lawyer/judge assessment score for each school from the most recent U.S. News & World Report
rankings. The other three columns are data about each journal from Washington & Lee’s law review
ranking website. The “citation ranking” is the total number of citations to the journal over the past
eight years. The “impact factor” is the number of citations per article per year. The “combined rating”
is a weighted combination of the citations and impact factor data. You can find more detailed
information on the Washington & Lee website at https://managementtools4.wlu.edu/LawJournals/.
We hope this information is helpful. We provide it with several important caveats:
o First, the charts cover only “general” law reviews, not specialized journals. There are excellent
specialized journals on many topics. Anyone submitting an article to law reviews will want to
consider the specialized journals relevant to their article and particular area of expertise.
o The charts cover 203 schools and their journals. We have tried to be comprehensive; any
omissions are inadvertent, and we’d be happy to hear what we missed so that we can add them.
o We do not mean to imply anything about how much importance, if any, should be given to
numerical rankings of law schools or law journals. These sorts of rankings are certainly an
incomplete, if not badly flawed, way of evaluating schools and journals. We provide the
ranking information because it is something that many people consider to some extent in the
submission process. Obviously each author can decide what to make of it.
o The chart is based on the information provided on each journal’s website. Some journals may
have alternative methods of submission (such as ExpressO or Scholastica) that are not
mentioned on their website and therefore not included here.
For a helpful and more detailed discussion of the submission process and related issues for law
professors, see Nancy Levit, Scholarship Advice for New Law Professors in the Electronic Age,
16 Widener L.J. 947 (2007), at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=939007.

Because this journal publishes
electronically, page limits are not as
relevant as they are in the world of print
publications. The journal is happy to let
authors take advantage of this greater
“bandwidth” to include material they
might otherwise have to cut to get into a
print journal. But authors should exercise
some discretion with respect to length.

Gonzaga Law
Review
Accepts submissions by Scholastica or by
e-mail to [email protected]
Accepts submissions on a rolling basis
and encourages authors to submit work
whenever they believe it is suitable for
publication.
Encourages authors to submit pieces to
Gonzaga Law Review exclusively for two
weeks. During the summer, suggests
authors not submit to other journals until
August 24. Authors submitting on an
exclusive basis should indicate in their
submission e-mail the date on which the
piece will be sent to other journals.
Prefers Microsoft Word.
Double-spaced.
Encourages gender-neutral language
when possible.
Bluebook citation format.
Strongly encourages submissions of less
than 25,000 words.
Include a short abstract detailing how the
argument fits into the current literature
and how the argument differs from those
of other authors.
To enable anonymous review, remove all
identifying information (name, affiliation,
and acknowledgements) from the
manuscript, file name, headers, and
footers. Make sure the title is on the first
page.
If you have another offer for
publication, please request expedited
review via the header in your e-mail
submission. Expedited review provides
no competitive advantage in the
process. Any request for expedited
review for less than three weeks from
Gonzaga’s initial receipt of the piece
may be disadvantaged.
The review process is time-
consuming and extensive, so
please let them know as soon
as possible if you decide to
withdraw your submission.
