At the Writing & Multiliteracy Center, we have three types of appointments available: in person, synchronous online, and asynchronous online. Synchronous means that you will meet with a tutor "live" and have the ability to speak with them via video, audio, and/or text chat. 

We recommend booking at least twenty-four hours in advance, but you can schedule an appointment up to 10 minutes before the start time. Appointments can be made for a half hour or a full hour. 

Scheduling an In-Person Appointment

In-person appointments can be scheduled by speaking to a member of our staff in the Scholarly Commons when we're open.

You can also book an in-person session via . You will need to use your 麻豆官网D credentials to log in.  

Scheduling and Accessing a Synchronous Online Appointment

Online appointments happen in real-time. You can schedule an online appointment by dropping by the Scholarly Commons and requesting an online session, or by booking . You will need to be in order to meet with your tutor online.

Choose "Online" when you create your appointment, and you'll be set up for your session.

eTutoring: Asynchronous Feedback

Receive written comments by scheduling an eTutoring session. Book an asynchronous appointment by l and selecting "eTutoring" when creating your appointment. You must upload your draft as a Microsoft Word document (.doc or .docx) or PDF to schedule the appointment. You'll receive written feedback from a WMC tutor at the end of the scheduled time. 

Canceling and Missed Appointments

Appointments can be modified or canceled by speaking to a member of staff in the Scholarly Commons or by l. Clicking on your appointment will open a pop-up window with a "cancel appointment" button at the bottom right. 

Because last-minute cancellations prevent others from scheduling this time with a tutor, you will be unable to cancel your appointment within 15 minutes of the appointment's starting time. If a last-minute emergency prevents you from attending an appointment, please contact the WMC directly by emailing WMC.Info@umassd.edu. 

If you fail to show up for your meeting, or arrive more than 15 minutes late, your appointment will be marked as a "no-show." Three "no-shows" will result in an inability to access the scheduler, and your account will be deactivated. If your account is deactivated, you must contact WMC.Info@umassd.edu to initiate a conversation about reactivating your account.
