The Cortland Review does not accept simultaneous submissions or previously published work. To have your work considered, please follow our general guidelines:

  • Submit 3-5 poems at a time.
  • Please do not submit more work if we are still considering your previous submission.
  • Do not query; we are currently accepting unsolicited submissions.
  • Include a cover letter with some biographical information.
  • Make sure your entire submission is submitted in one online submission form.
  • All work should be single-spaced.
  • Do not use ALL CAPS, even for titles.
  • For postal submissions: always include a SASE. Please note that we no longer accept unsolicited submissions via postal mail.
  • Read the fine print below

Please query first before submitting a book review as most of our reviews are solicited.

The Cortland Review reports within 6-12 months, sometimes earlier depending on the quantity of submissions we receive. Editors seldom comment on rejections. Writers accepted for publication receive pre-publication galleys. We cannot afford to provide payment for work accepted.
