Call for Journal Submissions: Due June 6th

With the relaunch of The EnglishUSA Journal as an open access publication in partnership with Syracuse University last year, all past and future issues of the Journal are now freely available to everyone on the Surface platform. 

This transition to open access reflects EnglishUSA’s ongoing commitment to expanding access to professional knowledge and scholarly insight across the field of English language teaching and administration.

This new model also provides increased visibility and reach for our contributors, ensuring their work is accessible to a more diverse and expansive readership. Continued engagement with EnglishUSA—through membership, active participation, and collaborative initiatives—remains vital to sustaining this effort and strengthening the impact of our shared mission.
