Scholastica is a journal management product used in various disciplines, and it enables authors to submit manuscripts to multiple publications at a time. More than 500 law reviews accept submissions via Scholastica, and the current list can be viewed by going to https://app.scholasticahq.com/journals and selecting "Law Reviews" from the "Currently displaying" dropdown menu. From this alphabetized list, click "Read more" to view additional information about a particular law review, such as publishing timelines, contact information, and links to the publication's website.
To see the list of law reviews that are currently accepting submissions through Scholastica, go to https://scholasticahq.com/law-review-submission-season-hq and search or browse through the list.
