Waiver Policy
We understand that some institutions may have limited funding for their research activities. Thus, we have instituted a generous waiver system that may ease the payment of the manuscript handling fee when their researchers choose to publish their manuscripts in UJPR. Our primary goal, as stated in our mission, is to speed up the dissemination of knowledge through the publication of high-quality research articles. We are continually pursuing this goal without putting undue financial burden on researchers or their institutions. Hence, we have instituted the following waiver policy. We provide a waiver of article processing charges to authors based on country classification by the World Bank and processing charges decided as per countries classified World Bank Country Classification. We can also waive 100% in some special condition depending on if there is no funding and the author cannot charge any fees. In order to apply for a waiver, please request one before submitting your manuscript by emailing editor@ujpronline.com
Authors from Low Income Countries may be granted up to a 75% waiver.
Authors from Lower Middle-Income Countries may be granted up to a 40% waiver.
