Nancy Levit (UMKC) & Allen Rostron (UMKC) have updated their incredibly useful document, which contains two charts for the Spring 2025 submission season covering the 196 main journals of each law school.
We have created hyperlinks for each law review to take you directly to the law review’s submissions page. Again the chart includes as much information as possible about what law reviews are not accepting submissions right now and what months they say they’ll resume accepting submissions.
The most interesting change here is the approximately sixty journals (that aren’t already open) that say they plan to reopen for submissions in February (February 1 is a popular date).
The first chart contains information about each journal’s preferences about methods for submitting articles (e.g., e-mail or Scholastica), as well as special formatting requirements and how to request an expedited review. The second chart contains rankings information from U.S. News and World Report (overall, peer, lawyers and judges), as well as data from Washington & Lee’s law review website (citation count, impact factor, and combined ratings).
