The Writing Center opens for the spring semester on Monday, January 29th. The spring schedule is now available, so once you register and login, you can reserve an appointment up to two weeks in advance. We look forward to seeing you!

Free Sentence Clarity Workshops:

Want to work on clarity, correctness, or sentence "flow" in your writing? Join one of our small group Sentence Clarity Workshops! You will learn strategies for proofreading and improving sentence structure with instructors from the EWP writing faculty, and apply what you've learned to your own piece of writing.

NYU Writing Center Pledge

As a client at the Writing Center, I pledge to prepare for my appointment in the following ways:

• Prior to my session, I will reread my assignment and draft in order to determine a particular question or concern to take up during the session.

• I will bring all materials to the session that the consultant and I may need: the assignment, the course syllabus, previous writing, relevant research and reading, my professor’s comments, etc.

• If I am working on a draft, will bring two copies to my session, one for the consultant and one for myself.

I understand that:

• The Writing Center is not a proofreading or copyediting service. My consultant will not read through my paper line by line and fix the errors. Instead, when my consultant and I address matters of style or patterns of errors, we will focus on how I can learn to assess better and improve some aspect of my writing.

• During my session, I will be prompted to think actively, to compose new writing, and to discuss my thoughts about my paper and about my writing process.

• I need to schedule my appointment in advance of the due date for my paper so that I have ample time to revise after the session.

• I need to be reasonably fluent in English in order to use the Writing Center.

• I am allowed up to 6 appointments per semester.

• If I am more than ten minutes late, I will lose my appointment to someone on the wait list.

• If I cannot make my scheduled appointment, I need to cancel it. Until 11:59 pm the night prior to my appointment, I can cancel it online at https://nyu.mywconline.com/. If I need to cancel the morning of my appointment, however, I must call the Writing Center at 212-998-8866.

• If I miss two appointments without canceling them ahead of time, I will not be allowed to use the Writing Center again during the semester.

• If I work on a draft of an essay or an exercise for an EWP course, my consultant will send my teacher a short description of what we worked on and accomplished during our session.

I have read the policies of the Writing Center and understand my responsibilities.
