There is no limit to how often a student utilizes the Write Place services.

No.  During a consultation, students work one-on-one with a consultant.  Write Place Consultants do not “fix” essays; they work with a student to help improve the writing and the student's skills as a writer. The Write Place does offer a Digital Drop Off option through Isidore if a student would prefer to receive comments electronically. 

It is a good idea to have questions in mind about your writing.  What is the biggest concern?  What is the main goal for the consultation session? It is also helpful to bring a hardcopy of the paper, the assignment sheet or writing prompt. These should be provided to a student by their instructor. Students must present their student ID at every consultation session.

Writing consultants can assist with nearly any aspect of writing including organizing ideas, developing a thesis, clarifying or expanding points, developing evidence, following MLA or APA guidelines, and grammar.  Since consultants enjoy writing, they will often give a student tips on how to enhance their writing process.

It is best to come to the Write Place in advance of a paper’s due date.  This ensures that the consultant can spend enough time to address any concerns.  Consultants will do their best to work with a student given any time limitations.

Write Place consultants strive to improve student's writing. Write Place consultants are not instructors; they will NOT predict or guarantee what grade a student will receive. Please talk directly with instructors for an assessment of writing assignments.
