Aims & Scope

The Journal of Higher Education and Student Affairs (JHESA) is affiliated with the Georgia College Personnel Association (GCPA). JHESA aims to promote scholarly work and perspectives from graduate students, practitioners, and scholars, reflecting the importance of professional and academic research and writing in higher education. The journal's scope is focused on state, regional, and national higher education research, concepts, and practices that have implications for practitioners and scholars in the HE/SA field.

In addition to peer-reviewed manuscripts using various methodological forms and perspectives, JHESA will consider publishing other scholarly contributions such as case studies, media reviews (blogs, websites, books, videos, reports), articles highlighting best practices or current trends, and practitioner reflections. Special attention will be paid to include scholarly contributions from graduate students, new professionals, and junior faculty when possible. In addition, the JHESA may periodically call for proposals for theme-focused editions and volunteers to edit such editions.

JHESA publishes articles in the following sections:

• Research and Scholarship in Higher Education and Student Affairs
• Research and Scholarship for HE/SA Professional Preparation
• Research and Scholarship from Emerging Scholars (Graduate Student Manuscripts)
• Book, Media, and Technology Reviews
