Simultaneous Submissions Policy:
Simultaneous submissions are strictly prohibited at IUCJ. In the publishing industry, it is standard practice that authors submit their manuscripts to only one journal or magazine at a time. Our editorial board puts many hours into reviewing, deliberating, and providing detailed feedback for every submission we receive. Simultaneously submitting the same work to two publications at the same time wastes the time of both editorial boards and is normally grounds for blacklisting at most major news outlets and academic journals. We pledge to do our best to promptly provide a decision and feedback, but good editorial work takes time. Should you wish for an update on your submission or wish to withdraw your submission so that you may submit it elsewhere, please email us at submissions@iucj.org.
Other Considerations:
Copyright: The Intercollegiate US-China Journal understands that authors retain full ownership over their research published in this journal. Any images used in submissions must be the author’s own or in the public domain.
Open access: All work published in the Intercollegiate US-China Journal will be made publicly available.
Further questions: Questions regarding the eligibility/fit of your research for this publication should be directed to the Editorial Board at submissions@iucj.org.
