Making an Appointment 

The CGU Writing Center provides 1 free consultation (either in-person or on-line) every week for all CGU students, faculty, and staff.

Both types of appointments are made through the same on-line appointment system. See below:

In-person  

One-on-one, in-person appointments are 50 minutes per session and are all held in the Writing Center house on 12th Street.

• To meet with a consultant in-person, go to our appointment system and be sure to “Click to register” (NOT to "log in").
• Fill in the required information. Then log in to the system with the password you just created.
• In each day's schedule, the WHITE boxes are open appointment times. Click on one that fits your schedule and then “save” it. Your appointment will be made, and you will receive a confirmation email.                                             

To cancel an in-person appointment, click on your blue appointment box for the appointment you want to cancel, then in the popup box scroll down and click both Delete and Modify as follows:

On-line

You may submit a paper as an email attachment and will receive comments from a consultant by email. The turn-around time for papers is:

• Papers up to 15 double-spaced pages: approximately 2 business days
• Papers from 16-50 double-spaced pages: approximately 7 days
• We do not accept papers over 50 pages in one submission.

To submit a paper on-line, go to our appointment system (the same one for in-person appointments). If you are not registered, be sure to “Click to register” (NOT to "log in"). Fill in the required information. Then you can log in to the system with the password you just created. 

Under each day's schedule, there is a blue line that you can click on and submit a paper as follows:   

After you submit a paper, the system will tell you that it was successfully submitted. You will not get an email confirmation.
