Writing Assistance
One of our primary objectives is to help you meet the rigor of N.C. A&T State University's writing requirements and thus improve how you communicate in academic and professional settings. We can assist you at any stage of your writing process with concepts such as writer's block, organization, development, thesis, audience awareness, sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation. We will assist you with a wide range of documents (course assignments, personal statements for scholarships or applications, resumes, cover letters, and more). However, we cannot edit or proofread your work because we believe that writing is a way of learning and that writing for you is unethical because you will misrepresent yourself as a writer if we write for you.

Register for an Account or Schedule an Appointment
The UWC uses an electronic system called WCOnline to schedule appointments and host all online sessions. If this is your first time accessing WCOnline, register for an account and then schedule an appointment with a writing consultant. If you have already registered for an account, schedule an appointment with a writing consultant. Log in with your institutional username and password. These are the same credentials you use for other institutional services.

Scheduling Protocol
To promote learning and to promote writing as a process, we do not meet with students on the day their assignments are due. Equally important, you need time to critically think about our feedback and revise accordingly, so you can produce a stronger product for your professor or another audience. Thus, we will meet with you at least 48 hours (Saturday is not included in these hours) before your work is due. Your appointment will be deleted if it does not adhere to our scheduling protocol. Upload your materials when you schedule your appointment, so we can prepare a meaningful conference for you. You may schedule two thirty-minute and one one-hour appointment per week

Scheduling Details
If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, call us at (336) 285-3531 at least 2 hours in advance of the appointment.

  • If you need to change your session from in-person to virtual, call us at (336) 285-3531 at least 1 hours in advance of the appointment.  
  • If you are 10 minutes late for your appointment, your appointment will be cancelled. If you are running late, call us at (336) 285-3531, so we can reserve your space. 
  • If you meet with a consultant less than 20 minutes for a 30-minute appointment, your appointment will be cancelled.
  • If you meet with a consultant less than 50 minutes for a 60-minute appointment, your appointment will be cancelled.  

We look forward to assisting you.  Schedule your appointments early! You may schedule weekly appointments.
