If manuscripts appear to be a cut/paste from a dissertation, they will be returned to the author and not considered further — manuscripts are to be a “review” of doctoral research and rewritten in the voice and tense appropriate to an audience of practicing school leaders, the professorate, and fellow doctoral students in education administration programs.

The rationale for this preliminary step is to catch any basic formatting problems up front, before the manuscript is considered for formal consideration.
2. Upon approval from the editorial advisor, the manuscript is subjected to a double-blind review by reviewers, editors and editorial advisors.
3. Authors should expect to respond to revision and editing requests from editorial advisor and editors in a timely manner.
