Writing Center Appointment Policies

The Writing Center is not permitted to tutor students for work in the following courses: Education 106, 107, and 108. To get help with those courses, call the ESL program (292-6360).

Appointment Scheduling

You may schedule ONE appointment at our Mendenhall location each week. You may have one walk-in tutorial a night (up to four per week) at our satellite center.

People with documented learning disabilities may have two appointments per week.

Clients with too many appointments per weeks will have the overflow appointments canceled.


If you need to cancel an appointment, please call 688-4291 or go online to http://rich15.com/ohio/ AT LEAST ONE HOUR before your appointment. Canceling an appointment less than an hour before the appointment will count as a no-show (see below). If you call to cancel more than an hour before your appointment, you may, if we have openings, reschedule an appointment for later in the week.


Clients who miss an appointment without calling or visiting http://rich15.com/ohio/ AT LEAST ONE HOUR in advance are considered no-shows and may not hold another appointment that week.


If you're late, we'll hold the appointment for you for TEN MINUTES. After ten minutes, we'll give the tutorial to a waiting student.


The Writing Center does not proofread or edit writing for clients. This means that you cannot drop off or email your paper to us and get it back corrected. We will discuss surface-level errors such as grammar or punctuation and show you how to identify and correct such errors. Also, we maintain a list of people who edit and proofread for pay. We do not evaluate people on the list or guarantee the quality of the work.

Questions? Call 688-4291 or email wcenter@osu.edu .
