Publication Fees & Service Charges

Southern Cross Academic Press operates as a dedicated open-access publisher. While we do not charge for the access, distribution, or reading of our scholarly content, Article Processing Charges (APCs) are required to sustain our high-quality publication infrastructure. These charges are only applicable after a manuscript has successfully completed the peer-review process and received a formal acceptance notification.

The APC covers essential operational costs including technical editing, manuscript handling, digital maintenance, and permanent global archiving to ensure the long-term visibility of your research.

The following processing fees apply to authors and their affiliated institutions upon the acceptance of a manuscript:
