Schedule an Appointment

How to Register for and Make Appointments at The Writing Center:

• Open The Writing Center Schedule (ucsc.mywconline.com).
• If you are a new user, you will need to register for an account by clicking on the link: “First Visit?: Register for an account.”
  • You will need to register for the account before you can return to the schedule and log in to make an appointment.
• If you are a registered user, enter your login information and choose the appropriate writing center schedule.
  • UNDERGRADUATES: The undergraduate schedule will be at the top of the page and is labeled "Spring 2025 Tutoring for Undergrads (WC)."
  • GRADUATE STUDENTS: Grads may schedule a tutoring session by selecting the schedule labeled "Spring 2025 Grad Student Tutoring - VOCES."
  • Once you are in the schedule, simply click on an open appointment to schedule your meeting with a Writing Mentor! We are currently available for online appointments only. 
    • You may schedule a synchronous appointment to meet online “in real time” with your tutor.  You may instead schedule an asynchronous appointment so that you may submit your writing to the tutor in advance, give the mentor time to review and comment on it, and then receive feedback either via email or in real time online. 
      

Writing Center Attendance Policies:

• Undergraduate writers can work with mentors for either half-hour or 1 hour sessions, once per day.   
• Graduate writers can work with mentors for 1 hour or 1.5 hour sessions, once per day.  
• Writing Center users may schedule recurring appointments in advance.  The Writing Center is a popular resource, so be sure that you either attend or cancel your scheduled appointments to be respectful of other student’s needs. To cancel or reschedule an appointment, return to The Writing Center schedule at ucsc.mywconline.com.
• Writing Center users who miss 3 scheduled sessions in a quarter will be blocked from making appointments until the next quarter begins.
