Liu Yuanfan
PhD candidate in Finance
Published in: Journal of Finance Research
As a PhD candidate submitting solo for the first time, the process guidance and upfront fee disclosure gave me real confidence.
Q1What worried you most as a first-time submitter?
Opaque processes and unclear fees. The site states the fees and timeline for every step clearly.
Q2Were the revision requests hard to address?
Comments were split into major and minor, and the editorial office provided a response template.
Q3Would you recommend it to peers?
Yes, especially the themed calls where the scope makes it easy to judge whether the work is a good fit.
