Standard Appointment Information

We have three appointment times to fit various student needs. For most purposes, our standard 60 minute appointment time will be the most appropriate.

Additionally, in order to reach as many students as possible, we request students limit bookings to a maximum of 90 total minutes a week : 
​
  • Initial/ Follow-Up Appointment (30 minutes): This may be good for your first appointment - we can talk about your writing goals and devise a plan. Otherwise, 30 minutes can be scheduled as a follow-up. Generally, this appointment is not sufficient for first time editing or feedback.
  • Standard Support Appointment (60 minutes): This is our standard appointment time. These appointments can be used to provide feedback on specific assignments and/or work on writing fitness or micro/macro writing skills.
  • Extended Support Appointment (90 minutes):  For feedback on larger projects and/or grant proposals (e.g., thesis/dissertation proposals, NRSA applications), this appointment may be more appropriate.  Book a 90 minute appointment if you'd like more time to go over your writing goals, receive feedback, or begin a writing fitness program. ​​

Additional Appointment Availability

If you are unable to book an appointment during standard times, please email psychology.wsc@gmail.com or submit a request  to book an appointment at a more convenient time.
We also offer limited virtual appointments during and outside of standard appointment times for minor feedback. 
​Note that the writing center team may provide up to three hours of "requested appointments" per week; subject to availability.
