Who can submit?
Tolle Lege accepts submissions from scholars, judges, practicing attorneys, law clerks, and law students not already on a journal at the Villanova Charles Widger School of Law.
Tips for Submitting
Authors can submit articles for review via Scholastica, ExpressO, or by emailing tollelegesubmissions@law.villanova.edu.
Submissions must be in Microsoft Word, double-spaced, and use Courier, New Courier, or Times New Roman fonts. While Tolle Lege has no upper word limit, the ideal submission is between 3,000 – 7,000 words.
All manuscripts must conform to The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (20th ed. 2015), and The Chicago Manual of Style (17th ed. 2017).
Although not required, we encourage authors to submit a source list or ZIP folder of sources. Doing so ensures accuracy on our part and speeds the editing process so your work can be published while it is freshest.
