The Writing Center
Writing assistance, through the Writing Center is available to all Cedar Crest students, and peer Writing Consultants can assist students with papers and written assignments for any course or subject. Writing Consultants are committed to fostering academic success by helping students develop and improve their writing skills and helping students learn how to navigate formatting manuals (APA, MLA, and Chicago). Writing Consultants do not edit student writing assignments. Please review the Writing Center policies (below) so that you understand the scope of assistance that may be provided by our Consultants. We recommend graduate students use Smarthinking professional tutoring (for info go to: My Cedar Crest, Current Students, Academic Services, then Smarthinking Online Tutoring) rather than peer writing assistance. Please refer to the "Resources for Writers" section on the right side of this page for some very helpful writing information and tutorials.
All Writing Center appointments are scheduled through the WC Online portal (under this section). First time WC Online users will need to register an account. In addition, you will need to disable your browser’s pop-up blocker by clicking the small red box that appears in the upper-right corner of your screen, then you can click the WCOnline link again. Please review the instructions and policies before scheduling an appointment.
Before making an appointment, please see the Writing Center Appointment Information section (center of page) for information about the types of appointments that are available, days/times of availability, and instructions for eTutoring appointments (if available).
