Writing Assistance for Students in the Washington D.C. Program Specifically for students who are participating in the Washington D.C. Program, The Center for Writing offers online support for any paper at any stage of the writing process.  We encourage students in this program to take advantage of this service.

The process for submitting and receiving help is as follows:

  1. contact us at centerforwriting@cmc.edu with a draft of the writing in question as well as any information about the paper and what you specifically want help with
  2. a Writing Consultant will be assigned to your paper and will assist you shortly afterward 
  3. the Writing Consultant will read over and comment on the essay using MS Word, sending it back to you promptly
  4. you may want to contact the consultant directly over e-mail (supplied in the consultant's reply to you), phone (909-607-4142), or other means (via the Internet) if you have further questions about your paper.

Please be sure your essay is saved in MS Word format.  Our consultants will comment on your essay through MS Word's comment feature.  We do not correct all grammatical or punctuation errors with "Track Changes" but will note them with explanations and recommendations provided in the comments.

Please expect a time span of at least two days before you will receive your paper with comments.  If you send us your paper after regular operating hours, we will begin the above process the next day we are open.

This service is extended only to students currently in the Washington D.C. Program.
