Graduate students are invited to book a 30-minute appointment to get individualized assistance with their writing, assignments, paper, or thesis.

Please note that the goal of these sessions is to support students by helping them improve their understanding of writing, the writing process, and their own writing issues. Please come with specific aspect(s) of the writing to discuss or questions about writing in general.
