Reject - The rejected manuscript will not be published, and the author will not have the opportunity to resubmit the revised version to the Sciences du Nord Economics and Business Journal.

Reapply for Review - Submissions need to be reworked but are acceptable with significant changes. However, this will require a second round of review.
