Charges Policy

Open Access Philosophy

The Journal works with the vision that a published work should be visualized by more and more people for their intellectual benefits. Therefore, we provide all published work unrestricted and open for readers online.

In order to bear the variable costs associated with online publishing and journal maintenance, we depend solely on author contributions. These contributions also support collaboration services, global promotion, and citation enhancement—ultimately increasing manuscript visibility.

Discount and Waiver Facility

We offer discounts and waivers based on:

• Quality of data interpretation and analysis
• Robustness of methods used
• Originality of manuscript objectives
• Ethical considerations of the study

The Journal provides up to 50% waiver for authors with genuine financial constraints or those from underdeveloped countries. Authors must request the waiver at the time of manuscript submission.

No Submission Charges

AAC does not charge any fee at the time of submission. APCs are only applicable upon formal acceptance. There are no hidden charges, and authors are not billed for rejected articles, figures, or supplementary data.

In case of financial hardship, authors from countries listed by the World Bank as low or lower-middle income are eligible for fee waivers.
