The Writers Workshop provides free support to all writers in the University of Illinois campus community across all forms of academic and professional writing, at any stage of the writing process. We offer writing groups, writing-related presentations, and writing consultations where we provide feedback on essays, research papers, personal statements, cover letters, theses and dissertations, manuscripts for publication, presentations, digital compositions, and anything between and beyond.
To receive feedback on your writing, you can select:
- In-Person Consultations by Appointment, where you’ll reserve a 50-minute appointment at one of our locations in the Main Library, Grainger Library, or MCB Learning Center.
- Video Call Consultations by Appointment, where you’ll reserve a 50-minute appointment to meet with a consultant in real-time via videoconferencing.
- Written Feedback Appointments, where you’ll reserve an appointment, upload your document(s), complete a detailed appointment form, and receive written feedback at the end of your appointment time. There is no live interfacing with the consultant in this format.
- Drop-In Consultations, where you’ll meet with a consultant in a 15-30 minute, first-come, first-served session.
