Submissions for the Volume 110 print edition of the Minnesota Law Review are open as of July 18, 2025 and will remain open until August 15, 2025. We will accept submissions via Scholastica and email at mnlawrev@umn.edu.
Minnesota Law Review generally accepts articles between 20,000 and 30,000 words, including footnotes. An ideal article is 20,000 to 25,000 words. We also consider shorter essays between 12,000 and 17,500 words, though this is a flexible guideline. We do not accept book reviews or student submissions.
If a manuscript receives an offer of publication from another journal before we have reached a decision, we encourage authors to request expedited review of their submission through their account on Scholastica. Due to the high volume of submissions we receive, we cannot guarantee expedited review, but we strive to honor all requests for expedited consideration.
We appreciate your interest and are happy to answer any questions at mnlawrev@umn.edu.
