Writing Center Services

Our Writing Center Team is here to help you strengthen your reading and writing skills. We believe that successful writers, whether beginning or more experienced, benefit from discussing their work with an engaged and supportive audience. That’s why we’re here to help at any stage of the writing process, from brainstorming to drafting and revising. We can’t wait to discuss your goals, review your work, and help you move forward.

You can schedule an online or in-person tutoring appointment through EAB Navigate or stop by the WC for walk-ins (though appointments are recommended). Sessions last 30 or 60 minutes, depending on your needs. If space allows, you may book more than a session in a day; however, we encourage you to apply what you’ve learned between visits. Also, feel free to use one of our laptops to work on your assignments. Come on in; we can’t wait to help!
