Two awards will be given to the best English papers submitted during the Symposium:
(1) The first one will be The Best Paper Overall; and
(2) the second one will be The Best Student Paper.
All the accepted papers, from both lecturers and students, qualify as contenders for The Best Paper Overall prize.
The contenders for the Best Student Paper will only include the papers written by undergraduate students.
The prize for The Best Paper Overall is $400.00 (as of 27 Feb 2024 equivalent to IDR 6,263,220.00 or PHP 22,464.00).
The prize for The Best Student Paper is IDR 1,000,000.00 (equivalent to $ 63.86 or PHP 3,586.66).
The Prizes will be given out if the paper fulfills the minimum quality standard for publication.
The Prize winners will later on be asked about the best way to hand over the prize to them.
You can access the rubric that will be used to peer review your paper by going to the Rubic for Peer Review page.
All the approved papers have a right to appear in the Proceedings that will be published after the Symposium. These proceedings will have an ISBN number.
The Symposium Committee, on the other hand, will respect the desire of any writer to publish his or her article in another publication or journal as long as that desire is communicated to us before the publication work on the Proceedings is begun.
The winner of The Best Paper Award may take into consideration that the cash prize given will be useful for any cost of publication in another publication or journal.
