Submission Guidelines
Although the Journal does not have strict length requirements, we generally look to publish submissions of approximately 25,000 words (including footnotes). Please note that the Journal does not generally publish book reviews, nor do we publish student notes by current law students who are not members of the Journal’s staff.
We look forward to receiving and reviewing your future submissions. Should you have any questions about our submissions process, please feel free to contact the Journal.
Expedited Review
Authors who wish to request expedited review should send an e-mail to the William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal. Please include the circumstances warranting the request (e.g., receipt of another offer) and a proposed deadline for expedited review. The volume of submissions often precludes granting each request, but the Artilces Selection Committee makes every effort to accommodate requests when possible.
