Writing Center Appointments

The Writing Center will be open for peer writing tutoring and oral communication consulting beginning on September 8. For specific tutor availability, please visit our scheduling website.

Click here to make or cancel an appointment.

Each student is permitted 1 appointment per day. Writing tutoring appointments are 1 hour in length. Appointments with the Oral Communication Consultants may be scheduled for 30-minutes or 1 hour in length.

To choose an online or etutoring appointment, look at the tutor names on the schedule: beneath the name you will see the types of appointments the tutor offers. Click on the timeslot on the schedule to make an appointment. The form that pops up allows you to choose your appointment type.

To cancel an appointment, click on your appointment box on the schedule, or look for "my appointments" under your name at the top left of the screen. Then check the "cancel" box. Make sure you also click on the "modify" button.

If you need more help, click on the "help" button in the top right corner of the scheduler.​​

To learn more about etutoring and online tutoring, check out Writing Center Services. 

Appointments begin at the top the hour or on the half hour. Please try to be on time! Your tutor will wait for around 10-15 minutes if you are not there on time. After that, they will need to mark you as a "no show" in order to be available to students on the waitlist for your appointment time.

More than 2 no-shows during a semester/session will result in the student's WCOnline account being disabled for the balance of the current semester/session.

Be sure to have the following available for your online appointment:

• Access to your draft (as a Word doc, PowerPoint, or pdf)
  
• Access to your assignment sheet or syllabus, if possible.
  

​Please make sure you have attached your draft and any other helpful materials to your appointment by the start time of the etutoring session. You will have been given the opportunity to do that when you made the appointment. To attach files after you have made the appointment, log back in to WCOnline (by clicking "make an appointment" on our homepage), find your appointment under "my appointments" beneath your name, click on the appointment, click "edit appointment" and attach your draft! Make sure to save the change.

You can expect your tutor to read and write response to your draft during the hour of your appointment. You should receive an email at the end of the appointment with feedback attached. If you do not receive this email, please contact us right away at writing-center@udel.edu, so we can fix what went wrong.
