Article Processing Charges (APC)

To support the publication of high-quality, openly accessible research, the Princeton Journal of Pre-Collegiate Research (PJPCR) charges an Article Processing Charge (APC) upon acceptance of a manuscript. This fee helps cover key publication costs, including DOI registration, editorial and administrative support, typesetting, and platform maintenance, while ensuring that all published research remains freely accessible to readers worldwide.

Standard Article Processing Charge (APC): $250

• Covers the full editorial review, feedback, and publication process if the manuscript is accepted.

• Typical turnaround time is 8–12 weeks.

• This fee is due only after acceptance.

Fast-Track Review (Optional): $250

• Provides a 2-week turnaround for the initial review decision.

• This is an optional service designed for authors working under time-sensitive deadlines.

• The Fast-Track fee is paid at the time of submission and is non-refundable.

Important Note:

• Choosing Fast-Track Review does not guarantee acceptance.
