The Korean Journal of Women Health Nursing operates under an open access model to ensure the wide dissemination of scholarly research. To support editorial processing, peer review management, and online publication, an Article Processing Charge (APC) is applied to accepted manuscripts.
APC Amount
The APC for all accepted manuscripts is USD 220 per article.
Payment Policy
- The APC is payable only after the manuscript has been accepted for publication.
- No submission fee is required at the time of initial submission.
- Payment instructions will be provided upon acceptance of the manuscript.
Scope of Charges
The APC covers editorial handling, peer review coordination, typesetting, online hosting, and long-term digital archiving of the published article.
Waiver Policy
Requests for partial or full waiver of the APC may be considered in exceptional cases. Authors must submit a formal request with justification at the time of submission. The decision on waiver requests rests solely with the editorial office.
Refund Policy
Once the article has been accepted and processed for publication, the APC is non-refundable.
Open Access Statement
All articles published in this journal are freely accessible online immediately upon publication. Users are permitted to read, download, and share the content for academic purposes with proper citation.
