Individual Consultations by Appointment

The most effective help we offer all students is one-to-one consultations. We support graduate students as they work on seminar papers, proposals, conference presentations, and thesis/dissertation work. Depending on the project, we meet with graduate students for half- or full-hour appointments. Many graduate students prefer to set up a recurring appointment with the same consultant. 

Jump Start Writing Retreat

Jump Start is our four-day, writing intensive retreat for graduate students working on a research proposal, thesis, or dissertation. We offer Jump Start during winter break, spring break and summer term. The next Jump Start will take place Monday through Thursday, January 10-13, 2022, from 9:00am-2:00pm.
