Publication Fees

AJASE is a self supporting international journal and does not receive funding from any institution/government. Hence, the operation of the journal is solely financed by the processing fees received from authors. The processing fees are required to meet operations expenses such as employees, salaries, internet services, electricity etc. Being an Open Access Journal, AJASE does not receive payment for subscription as the journals are freely accessible over the internet. It costs money to produce a peer-reviewed, edited, and formatted article that is ready for online publication and camera ready version for hard copy print publication, and to host it on a server that is freely accessible without barriers around the clock.
