Writers' Workshop Appointments

The Center for Writing Studies, The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

In order to work with a writing consultant, it is recommended that you make an appointment so that you can see a consultant at your convenience. Writers without an appointment are welcome to stop by any Workshop location during open hours to see if a consultant is available.

:: Ways to Make Your Appointment Successful

: To get the most out of a session, we encourage you to schedule appointments as far before the due date of an assignment as you can.
: Please bring your assignment sheet with you. It helps our consultants to know the directions and evaluation criteria for an assignment.
: We have computers at all locations, so we encourage you to bring electronic as well as hard copies of your work. That way, you can make revisions during the session, if you wish. It is best to save your work to your Netfiles account and access it from there. You can also email your paper to yourself as an attachment or bring a memory stick.
