The Review of Higher Education

About The Review of Higher Education

Since 1977, The Review of Higher Education has been advancing the study of higher education through publication of peer-reviewed research studies, scholarly essays, and theoretically-driven reviews that address issues and questions of importance to students, faculty, administrators and policy makers. It emphasizes systematic and critical inquiry and practical implications.

Please note that The Review of Higher Education does not require potential contributors to pay an article submission fee in order to be considered for publication.  In addition, the official site for submissions is: www.press.jhu.edu/journals/review-higher-education/author-guidelines.  Any other website that purports to be affiliated with the Journal and that requires you to pay an article submission fee is fraudulent.  Do not provide payment information.  Instead, we ask that you contact the editorial office or William Breichner the Journal's Publisher at the Johns Hopkins University Press (wmb@press.jhu.edu).

For more information about the Review, see the Journal's info on the Johns Hopkins University Press website. For any other questions or concerns, please email the RHE editorial team at rhe@ashe.ws.
