Submissions

We will be open for submissions from April 15 – May 15, 2025 and again in the Fall..

The Cortland Review is open to considering poetry and translations. Send us your best work!

We accept simultaneous submissions, but kindly ask that you notify us as soon as possible when you have placed submitted work elsewhere. Please don’t “withdraw” the submission unless you plan to withdraw the entire submission; for single poem withdrawals, just send us a message attached to your submission.

Submit up to 5 poems at a time. Consider sending at least 4-5 poems, which gives us more to select from.

Please do not put poem titles in all-caps. Left-justify all poems (do not center poems) and use a 12 point font.

All submissions must be previously unpublished.

The Cortland Review does its best respond to all submissions within 3-4 months.
