The COM Writing Center will be closed on Friday, Nov. 1, from 10-11am for a staff meeting.

The COM Writing Center is now open for the fall 2024 semester. Our hours will be Monday thru Friday, 10am to 6pm. We are closed on weekends and holidays.

Welcome to The COM Writing Center! The COM Writing Center has one objective: to help you become a better writer. Our clients often see great improvement in their writing, and they continue to come back time and again.

To make an appointment, please select a schedule on the left (or after you log in).

In-person appointments take place at the COM Writing Center (COM B27A).
You can also choose an online appointment. When it's time for your session to start, click on your appointment, click "Start or join online consultation" in the middle of the appointment form, and click "allow" to enable the website to access your camera and microphone. Your tutor will join you for this Zoom-like session.

Scheduling limits for the academic year:

Appointments last 30 minutes, but can be extended to 60 minutes using back-to-back appointments.
Each student is limited to 2 half-hour appointments per day and 4 half-hour appointments per week (from any schedule).

Additional policies:

Please be ON TIME for in-person appointments. Tutors will wait up to 10 minutes for you to arrive, but if you have not begun the appointment at that point, it will be marked a "no-show."
Please DO NOT schedule appointments for the same day that your paper is due. You might not have time to make edits to your paper after your appointment.
Please DO NOT cancel appointments at the last minute. The system requires you to cancel an appointment at least 1 hour before the start time; otherwise, it will be marked as a "no-show."
Students with repeated "no-shows" will be restricted from making future appointments. Decisions regarding "no-shows" are at the discretion of the Writing Center.
