There's no fixed deadline since reviewers are volunteers, but most submissions move through Eligibility, Quality Assessment, and Integrity checks within a few weeks. You can follow progress at any time from Track Progress using your tracking code.
You'll receive an email with the rationale behind the decision. You may file one appeal within 30 days if you believe the process wasn't followed correctly — see the Appeal Policy for details.
It means your journal meets the core criteria but has specific, correctable issues flagged by the committee. Once you address them and resubmit the required corrections, your journal can move to full indexing.
Not directly through the form. Contact us with your tracking code and the details you'd like to correct, and the coordinator will update it on your behalf before assessment begins.
No. SCILEX does not charge journals to submit, be assessed, or be listed in the directory.
Use the tracking code you received by email on the Track Progress page. You'll also get an automatic email update every time your submission's status changes.
Each submission is scored independently by committee reviewers who don't see one another's assessments. Anyone with a conflict of interest is automatically recused, and that recusal is recorded.
