Manuscript Handling Fee
The review process is an important aspect of the publication process of an article. It helps an editor in deciding on an article and also enables the author to improve the manuscript. OASIS Journals operates a blind peer review system.OASIS Journals is a self-supporting organization and does not receive funding from any institution/government. Hence, the management of the Journals is solely financed by the handling fees received from authors. The manuscript handling fees are required to meet operations expenses such as employees’ salaries, internet services, web hosting, application development and support, electricity, etc. Being an Open Access Publisher, OASIS Journals does not receive payment for subscription as the journals are freely accessible over the internet.
Authors are required to pay a fair manuscript handling fee for the processing of their articles. However, there are no submission charges. Authors are required to make payment only after their manuscripts have been accepted for publication. See Manuscript Handling Fees for each journal below.

Waiver Policy
At OASIS Journals, 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 any of our journals. Our primary goal as stated in our mission is to accelerate the dissemination of knowledge through the publication of high-quality research articles. We are continually pursuing this goal, without putting an undue financial burden on researchers or their institutions. Hence, we have instituted the following waiver policy.
- 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.
Also, it is also not unusual for authors to be granted full waivers, especially authors from low-income countries. To request a waiver, kindly send an application to support@oasisjournals.org. Waiver application should contain the manuscript number and state the reason for requesting a waiver.
