The University Writing Center
Graduate Writing Consultations
The University Writing Center (UWC) provides free programs to support and empower all UT graduate students as readers, writers and communicators. Trained graduate student consultants provide one-on-one feedback on any project at any stage of your writing process. Using a non-directive, non-evaluative approach to writing consulting means we focus on having a conversation about your work and your writing goals.
We offer 45-minute writing appointments to and graduate students at UT Austin. Graduate students can book writing appointments as needed but no more than one per day.
