The last check before pressing submit on ScholarOne Manuscript Central. AERJ is masked, so the single most common avoidable failure is an under-anonymized manuscript or identifying metadata. Verify volatile specifics on the official page before relying on them.

| Failure at upload | What it breaks | Avoidable fix |
|---|---|---|
| Author name in text/metadata | Masked review | Strip identifiers; move them to the title-page file |
| No clear AERJ fit | Editor/reviewer match | Name the dominant education lens and field-wide significance |
| Abstract over the limit | Format compliance | Trim to the stated word range; verify the figure |
| Over-length manuscript | Inclusive page count | Cut to the page limit counting tables/figures/refs |
| Mixed citation styles | APA-7 compliance | Run a single clean author-date pass |
A team is uploading a mixed-methods evaluation of a community-schools initiative to AERJ. The preflight catches three things: an acknowledgments line thanking a named foundation (breaks masking), an abstract of 134 words (illustrative, over a 100–120 target), and a figure note citing "our prior district study" (a self-citation tell). Fixing all three before submission — moving funder thanks to the title page, trimming the abstract to 118 words, neutralizing the self-reference — converts a likely desk return into a clean send-out. Confirm the exact length and abstract limits against the journal's current submission guidelines.
