Table of Contents
As a researcher who has invested time and effort perfecting a manuscript after years of research, you might be aware of how disappointing it is to receive a “revise and resubmit” notice from your target journal. The good news, however, is that there is still scope for your manuscript to be accepted subsequently—an outcome which is far more desirable than a complete rejection ! How can you improve the chances of your manuscript getting accepted upon resubmission? A well-written cover letter accompanying your manuscript can definitely help!
So, what is a cover letter?
A cover letter is a brief document that introduces your research, submitted along with the manuscript. Here are a few important points to note about it:
- It is usually written and submitted by the corresponding author.
- It is required by most peer-review journals.
- It should include the name of the editor and the journal, the importance of the manuscript, and other relevant details.
- It should include the date of and a brief statement to note the resubmission
What tips should you follow to write a cover letter for resubmission?
Here are some important tips you can follow to ensure that your cover letter is appreciated by the editors and prompts them to revisit your work:
The cover letter to the editor should be brief, formal, and polite. Even if the remarks on your manuscript are rude, do not get upset. Remember that they are not a criticism of you as an individual, but about your work. They are meant only to improve your work.
Provide accurate details
Include your manuscript details such as the title, the corresponding authors’ names, the manuscript number, and a brief statement to note the resubmission.
Draw attention to the changes made
Highlight all the changes you have made to the manuscript. This will form a positive impression on the editor and encourage him/her to consider that your resubmitted work is fit for publication. For example: “I have made every attempt to fully address these comments in the revised manuscript.”
Be positive in your approach
After mentioning the changes you have made to your work, acknowledge that your reviewer’s comments and feedback have helped you enrich your manuscript. For example: “I believe the additional analyses discussed above have helped to substantially improve my manuscript.”
Respond to specific comments
Make sure that you respond to every comment of the reviewers or the editor separately. In case you were unable to make the changes, explain or state the reasons underlying the same. For example: “This is a good point that has led to a rewrite of this section of the paper. As suggested, I agree that…”
Express gratitude
Include a note of thanks to the editor for the opportunity to improve and resubmit your manuscript. For example: “I would also like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude/thanks to the reviewers for the positive feedback and helpful comments that supported these revisions.”
Add a preview for the content
Do not forget to add an at-a-glance roadmap on how and where to check for revisions in the manuscript. It will make it easier for the editor or reviewers to go through the draft. For example: “Below, I have outlined how I have handled Reviewer 1’s comments. I have reiterated each suggestion in (bold/italics).”
In addition, ensure that you dedicate sufficient time to draft the cover letter. This way, it will not come across as a last-minute, hurried addition, but as an informative, comprehensive, and well-thought-out document. Despite these tips, should you still require help, Elsevier Author Services is here to help you. Our experts can guide you through the entire process and help you produce an excellent paper ready for publication!

Thesis resubmission for re-examination
Information on what steps to take if your thesis requires resubmission for examination.
PhD and MPhil resubmission for re-examination
Following the oral examination, examiners may decide that your thesis requires substantial revision and therefore recommend resubmission of a thesis - Reg 23e for PhD or Reg 24e for MPhil. The examiners' recommendation will be sent to the College Office on the Part II (oral examination) examination report form. The examination paperwork will be sent to the next Board of Examiners meeting for approval. You will then receive an official letter from the College Office notifying you of the recommendation to resubmit your thesis for re-examination and your new thesis submission deadline. You will also be sent copies of the report and examiner notes detailing what revisions are required. The examiners will specify a further period of study under supervision usually not exceeding 12 months (maximum 24 months). You will be required to pay Continuation Fees for the additional study period and a Resubmission Fee to resubmit your thesis; the Resubmission Fee is currently £690 for session 2018-19.
Your new Resubmission deadline which will appear in your MyEd Portal. This deadline is as strict as your initial submission deadline; late submissions will not be examined. In very exceptional occasions it may be possible to request an extension to your Resubmission deadline.
Board of Examiners
Resubmission fee
2 months before resubmission
You must notify the Informatics Graduate School and the College Office at least 2 months before you intend to resubmit your thesis. Please read the '2 Months Before Submission' page for information on the Intention to Submit forms you are required to submit. This will trigger the Nomination of Examiners process again.
The examiners generally remain the same as for the initial examination. It is the responsibility of your supervisor to ensure the College Office has current mailing addresses for your examiners.
Thesis binding
You are required to submit at least 2 soft-bound copies of your thesis to the College Office. If you have been or are currently a member of staff at the University you may be required to submit 3 soft-bound copies for examination; you should discuss this with your Supervisor.
Each copy of your thesis must contain the following:
- Signed declaration page
- Abstract of Thesis
- Electronic copy of Thesis (including Abstract and thesis) - please ensure the electronic copies are suitably attached to each Thesis.
The University has printing and binding services on the King's Buildings Campus (James Clerk Maxwell Building) and in the Central area (Infirmary Street). For further information on locations to have your thesis bound please visit at the Thesis Binding Information link below. Please note, it is recommended that you print your thesis single-sided at this stage so that examiners have space to make comments on the thesis. Your thesis must conform to the College of Science and Engineering Thesis Format and Binding Guidelines (link below). The 'Temporary Binding' paragraph in the document relates to the requirements for a soft-bound thesis.
Thesis binding information
Thesis format and binding guidelines
Re-submitting your thesis for re-examination
You are required to resubmit on or before your thesis resubmission deadline (also known as the Maximum End Date of your programme). Your deadline date can be found on your MyEd Portal.
You must submit two soft-bound copies of your thesis (as described above) (three copies if a second external examiner has been appointed) to the College Office (Murchison House, King's Buildings):
College contact Info
If the addresses of your examiners have been confirmed by your supervisor to the College Office, the College Office will be able to send your thesis to your examiners within 5 working days. If the examiners details have not been confirmed yet, there may be some delay in sending your thesis to the examiners. If a viva is recommended by the examiners, it is strongly advised that your viva is not organised until your examiners have officially received a copy of your thesis and the re-examination paperwork from the College Office. This benefits you as it gives the examiners suitable time to read and preliminarily re-examine your thesis before the viva; examiners must complete a report form before your viva. Examiners will normally be expected to read the thesis within three months of receiving it; but candidates should allow for examiners' other commitments. If, because of visa restrictions, overseas candidates must return home promptly at the end of their period in Edinburgh, they and their supervisors must ensure that an allowance is made for this time when re-submitting the thesis.
The University takes plagiarism very seriously and is committed to ensuring that so far as possible it is detected and dealt with appropriately.
Plagiarism is the act of including in one’s work the work of another person without providing adequate acknowledgement of having done so, either deliberately or unintentionally. At whatever stage of a student’s course, whether discovered before or after graduation, plagiarism will be investigated and dealt with.
We strongly recommend you read the following Guidance document:
Plagiarism guidance
Re-examination procedure and Board of Examiners - first time for resubmission
Students are only permitted one opportunity to resubmit their thesis. Following re-examination, you may, at most, be asked to make minor corrections. It is important, therefore, to make sure you consult with your supervisor to make clear what is required to meet the requirements of your examiners.
The examination process for a resubmitted thesis remains similar to the initial examination. The internal and external examiner are each required to submit a preliminary (Part I) report. A second oral examination may not be required if the examiners felt the initial oral examination was considered to be satisfactory. However, a second oral examination must be held if the examiners recommend one.
When the reports have been received by the College Office, they will be sent to the Board of Examiners for approval. A few days after the meeting you will be sent an official letter from the College Office confirming the outcome of the re-examination. The following recommendations are possible after a thesis resubmission:
Postgraduate Research Assessment Regulations
When you have completed the required corrections to your thesis, you must send a copy (either electronic or paper - depending on the preference of your examiner(s)) of your corrected thesis to your internal examiner for approval. Your external examiner may also wish to see the corrected thesis. They will then read your thesis again and, if they are satisfied that you have completed the corrections, complete the Certification of Corrections form. The form will have been sent to your examiners with the other examination paperwork. The Certification of Corrections form should be returned to the College Office as soon as possible so that your examination paperwork can be sent to the Board of Examiners for final approval.
Once the examiners have told you the corrections have been to their satisfaction, you can prepare the Final Submission Documentation. This can then be submitted to the College Office. The sooner you submit this documentation, the quicker you will receive your award letter after approval at the Board of Examiners meeting. Please do not prepare this paperwork until your corrections have been approved by your examiners, they may ask you to make further corrections.
Board of Examiners - second time for resubmission
When the College Office receives the Certification of Corrections form from your examiner(s) they will send all of your examination paperwork to the next Board of Examiners meeting for approval. If and when the Board approve the paperwork, you will be allowed to be awarded - providing you have submitted your Final Submission Documentation.
Final submission documentation
Once the College Office has received all the necessary examination paperwork from your examiners and it has been approved by the Board, and you have submitted your Final Submission Documentation you will be sent your award letter. Again, please ensure the College Office have the correct mailing address for you. The College Office is only allowed to give you one letter, if you require copies of your award letter it is your responsibility to photocopy the letter. Please also read: Final Submission and Graduation.
Change of address
The College Office will use the mailing address that is listed on your EUCLID record listed as 'contact/ term-time address'. If this address is not correct then it is your responsibility to update this information. You can do so via the Student Personal Details channel on MyEd.

Tips on Manuscript Resubmission: How to Write a Good Rebuttal Letter
Following from ‘ Five Tips for Writing a Good Rebuttal Letter ’, we revisit the theme of manuscript resubmission to academic journals. The initial feedback from editors and reviewer’s about one’s work can trigger a variety of reactions based on its analysis. While authors seek positive feedback in general, the more realistic expectation is to address the reviewer’s requests for revision. Methods of writing a rebuttal letter can determine if manuscript revision is likely to be successful or a futile attempt at resubmission. Should the editorial outcome be negative with equally critical referees, the recommendation is to provide an appeal letter first. However, authors who receive positive feedback can revise in compliance with comments, and submit revisions along with a rebuttal letter.
A Writing Guide – Do’s and Don’ts
A rebuttal letter offers authors an opportunity to address reviewer’s concerns directly, defend aspects of work, and eliminate contextual misunderstandings. This stepwise breakdown of writing a rebuttal letter aims to assist authors during the revision to ensure grant of appeal.
Step 1: Say Thank You
Acknowledge the reviewers time, comments and expertise. Thanking the reviewers sets a positive tone to begin with, providing the basis for an ongoing amicable exchange. Do not insinuate reviewer bias or incompetence. Prudent statements from the author cannot result in a positive re-evaluation of the work.
Step 2: Be Modest
Acknowledge any misunderstandings on your part including a poor presentation that may have led to reviewer’s confusion. Do not imply reviewer incompetence or lack of expertise in the phrasing of your rebuttal. Be clear, avoiding ambiguous and blank statements.
Step 3: Keep it Short
Respond to each reviewer’s individual comments, by copying the full text within your rebuttal letter . Strive to keep answers brief, succinct and well versed. Explain how you intend to revise the concerns either experimentally or editorially. Do not plead for reconsideration based on lack of funding as one of the reasons surrounding your inability to complete key experiments. Original scientific articles require the full spectrum of research, and the inability to meet reviewer requests experimentally is not viable.
Step 4: Explain Everything
If data required is available as a supplementary article, which the reviewer may have missed, explain this in your rebuttal for clarity. If you are unable to address a point raised in the reviewer comments, explain your reasons for evasion. Do not blatantly ignore reviewer comments, while selectively answering a few.
Step 5: Major Comments and Minor Comments
Often authors receive feedback on their manuscript from the editorial and reviewers as ‘Major’ and ‘Minor’ comments. If reviewer comments deviate from the typical format, categorize the comments provided relative to your work, as major and minor:
- Major comments: delineate major comments based on its relevance to the integral scientific or academic content of your manuscript.
- Minor comments: concern data presentation, table formatting, suggested changes to figures and citation errors, including comments on syntax errors.

D. Cover Letter for Resubmission
When one submits the revised version of a manuscript, the cover letter is slightly different from the one for the initial submission. Authors will be expected to make clear how they responded to the suggestions of the editor and the reviewers. In many journals, the editor might explicitly mention a separate document to outline the revisions in detail. In such cases, the authors can start with a general statement of their changes in the cover letter, not forgetting to thank the reviewers for the time they spent on reading the manuscript. Then they can append the details of their changes in a separate document. Note that not all suggestions have to be accepted. In some cases, the author might feel that the suggestion might conflict with one’s own objectives for that paper. In such situations, the authors can explain their reasons for their opinion and explain the alternate strategies they adopted for their revision.
The detailed response can take many forms. In many cases, authors organize the response in two parallel columns. In the first, they mention the suggestions of the editor and each reviewer. In the parallel line on the second column, they indicate how they responded to that suggestion.
Others go line by line through the revisions to comment next to each of them and elaborate their own responses and changes.
It is important for authors not to ignore any major suggestions of the reviewers. In most cases, the revised version will be sent to the same reviewers for a second review. The reviewers and editor will decline publication when they see that the author has not acted upon some of the important suggestions.

Format, bind and submit your thesis: general guidance
You no longer need to submit a physical copy of your thesis. Please refer directly to the “Submit Your Thesis” section below.
This information is for research students submitting a thesis for assessment. It tells you how to:
- format your thesis
- submit your thesis
- bind your thesis
- submit the final copy of your thesis
There are different requirements for students of fine arts, design, architecture or town planning.
Find out more about these requirements
Format your thesis
UCL theses should be submitted in a specific format, this applies to both the viva and final copies of your thesis.
View the thesis checklist
Presentation
In the electronic version of your thesis, hyperlinks (including DOIs) should be functional and resolve to the correct webpage.
We would recommend using Arial or Helvetica fonts, at a size of no less than 12.
Find out more about the accessibility guidelines
If printed, please present your thesis in a permanent and legible format.
Illustrations should be permanently mounted on A4 size paper and bound in with the thesis; you may not use sellotape or similar materials.
A4 size paper (210 x 297 mm) should be used. Plain white paper must be used, of good quality and of sufficient opacity for normal reading. Both sides of the paper may be used.
Both sides of the paper may be used.
Margins at the binding edge must not be less than 40 mm (1.5 inches) and other margins not less than 20 mm (.75 inches). Double or one-and-a-half spacing should be used in typescripts, except for indented quotations or footnotes where single spacing may be used.
All pages must be numbered in one continuous sequence, i.e. from the title page of the first volume to the last page of type, in Arabic numerals from 1 onwards. This sequence must include everything bound in the volume, including maps, diagrams, blank pages, etc. Any material which cannot be bound in with the text must be placed in a pocket inside or attached to the back cover or in a rigid container similar in format to the bound thesis (see Illustrative material ).
The title page must bear the following:
- the officially-approved title of the thesis
- the candidates full name as registered
- the institution name 'UCL'
- the degree for which the thesis is submitted
The title page should be followed by a signed declaration that the work presented in the thesis is the candidate’s own e.g.
‘I, [full name] confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis.'
Please see the section below entitled ‘Inclusion of published works in doctoral theses’ for more information about how to indicate when you have re-used material that you have previously published.
The signed declaration should be followed by an abstract consisting of no more than 300 words.
Impact Statement
The abstract should be followed by an impact statement consisting of no more than 500 words. For further information on the content of the Impact Statement, please see the Impact Statement Guidance Notes for Research Students and Supervisors on the Doctoral School's website.
Find out more about the Impact Statement
Inclusion of published works in doctoral theses
If you have included any work in your thesis that you have published (e.g. in a journal) previously, then you will need to insert a completed copy of the UCL Research Paper Declaration Form into your thesis after the Impact Statement. The form, and information about how to complete it is available on the Doctoral School’s website.
Find out more about the UCL Research Paper Declaration Form
Table of contents
In each copy of the thesis the abstract should be followed by a full table of contents (including any material not bound in) and a list of tables, photographs and any other materials. It is good practice to use bookmarking within the PDF of the thesis in electronic form to allow readers to jump to the relevant section, figure, table etc. from the table of contents.
Illustrative material
Illustrative material may be submitted on a CD-ROM. If you wish to submit material in any other form, your supervisor must contact Research Degrees well in advance of submission of the thesis.
Any material which cannot be bound in with the text must be placed either in a pocket inside or attached to the back cover or in a rigid container similar in format to the bound thesis. If it is separate from the bound volume it must be clearly labelled with the same information as on the title page. Each copy of the thesis submitted must be accompanied by a full set of this material.
Submit your thesis
Viva copies.
You must submit an electronic version of your thesis to via the UCL OneDrive . You no longer need to submit a printed copy unless your examiners ask for this.
Find out more on how to submit via the UCL OneDrive
We will check your status and if your examiners have been appointed we will forward the thesis directly to them. They will then be able to download the copy of your thesis to prepare for your exam.
If an external examiner requests a hard copy of the thesis you will need to arrange for this to be printed and submitted to the Student Enquiries Centre during their walk-in operational hours. We will collect your thesis and post it on to the examiners.
If your examiners have not been appointed, your thesis will be held securely until your examiners have been formally appointed by UCL.
Covid-19 Impact Form
We have developed a form for you to submit with your thesis if you wish to declare an impact on your research. The form is optional and your choice to complete it or not will have no bearing on the outcome of your examination. It is intended to set the context of examination and is not a plea for leniency. Your examiners will continue to apply the standard criteria as set out in UCL’s Academic Manual and the joint examiners’ form. Please see the publication from the QAA on Advice on Doctoral Standards for Research Students and Supervisors for further support.
You must submit this form as a separate Word document or PDF when you submit your thesis via the UCL Dropbox as detailed in our guidance above. We will only accept the form if you submit it at the same time that you submit your thesis. This will apply if you are making an initial submission or a resubmission.
Download the Covid-19 Impact Form

Re-submission
If you need to re-submit you must:
- submit a new examination entry form to the Research Degrees office at least 4 weeks prior to the expected submission of the thesis
- you must submit an electronic version of your thesis to via the UCL OneDrive . You no longer need to submit a printed copy unless your examiners ask for this. Find out more on how to submit via the UCL OneDrive
We will check your status and confirm that your examiners are willing to review your revised thesis. We will then forward the thesis directly to them. They will be able to download the copy of your thesis for assessment.
If an external examiner requests a hard copy of the thesis you will need to arrange for this to be printed and submitted to the Student Enquiries Centre during their walk-in operational hours. We will collect your thesis and post it on to the examiners.
Submitting as a Non-Registered Student
If you do not submit your thesis by the end of your period of Completing Research Status, your registration as a student will end at that point. Your supervisor will then need to apply for permission for you to submit your thesis in writing to the Research Degrees section, at least 3 weeks before your expected submission date. You will be charged a submission extension fee at the point you submit your thesis.
Bind your thesis
If your examiners have request a printed copy of your thesis, please read the following guidance:
Theses have to be robust enough to withstand the examination process and be easily identified. They will need to have your name on the spine to distinguish them.
All theses (whether soft or hard-bound) must:
- be covered in medium blue cloth (e.g. water resistant material)
- be lettered in gold up the spine with degree, year, name and initials in the same form as UCL records, with letters 16 or 18 point (.25 inch) - thesis submitted for examination in November and December should have the following year lettered on the spine
- have no lettering on front cover of thesis
- have the spine text inverted if the front cover is facing up
An example of how your thesis should be presented.
Hard-bound theses must have the pages sown in (not punched) and soft-bound theses should have the pages glued in. Theses submitted in any other form of binding, including ring binding, will not be accepted.
You are responsible for making sure that your thesis is correctly bound by the company you select.
Final copies
UCL no longer requires a printed copy of your final thesis and we will award your degree once you have met the academic conditions and the Library have confirmed receipt of your e-thesis, the Deposit Agreement form, and you have cleared any outstanding fees.
You will need to deposit an electronic copy of your final thesis (and a completed E-Thesis Deposit Agreement form) via UCL's Research Publications Service (RPS). Please ensure that you remove, or blank out, all personal identifiers such as signatures, addresses and telephone numbers from the e-thesis. Any photographs that you have taken should not show identifiable individuals without their permission and any you have taken of children should mask their faces.
If you do wish to deposit a hard copy you can do so by sending it directly to the Cataloguing & Metadata department of Library Services by post, or in person at the Main Library help desk. You will find more information about the process on the existing webpage for e-thesis submission.

- Specify special considerations that should be given to the paper (if any).
- A brief background regarding the research involved or how the data was collected.
- Details of any previous or concurrent submissions.
- It's also useful to provide the Editor-in-Chief with any information that will support your submission (e.g. original or confirmatory data, relevance, topicality).
- The inclusion (or exclusion) of certain Reviewers (if propose/oppose reviewers isn't an available step in the submission process).
- Bring to the Editor’s attention any Conflict of Interest or Permissions information which may be relevant. Be sure to upload any accompanying forms or declarations as required to your submission.
