The Writing Center is now offering limited online asynchronous appointments where writers drop-off their paper by uploading it to WCOnline via the online schedule. Tutors will return feedback in approximately 24 hours. Try out this service on a draft of a paper to help guide your revisions! Access the directions on registering for these appointments on our website.
The In-person Writing Center is closed for the full week of Thanksgiving and closes for the term end-of-day Friday Dec. 13th. Limited Asynchronous Feedback from a Tutor is available during Thanksgiving week.
Advice from the Hofstra Writing Center
- Plan ahead! Writing right up to a deadline is unnecessarily stressful and less meaningful than working day-by-day towards your writing goals; break up your writing tasks!
- Visit the Hofstra Writing Center (102 Mason Hall) at any stage of your writing: from brainstorming and drafting to revision and editing. You DO NOT need to have a full draft to work with us, in fact, these are often our most productive and engaging sessions.
- Don’t write alone—book an appointment with us to meet your goals: https://hofstra.mywconline.com/
- For support doing research, make an appointment to meet with a research librarian.
- Need to cancel? Just log in to the schedule, click on your appointment (the gold-colored box on the schedule), and click on the "cancel this appointment" button at the bottom of the dialog box that appears.
- We now offer online asynchronous (paper drop-off) feedback from tutors M/W/F. Drop off a paper with specific requests for feedback and the tutor will upload feedback 24 hours later. This is not a copyediting service.
