Need Online Assistance?
If you attend Troy University on a campus or site other than the Troy campus and need help with your writing, you may submit a paper online for review. Follow this link to our online portal, provide the requested information, upload your paper, and then choose an “appointment time” when your paper will be reviewed by one of our tutors. After the tutor has read your paper and made suggestions, he or she will send an email to you to let you know the paper and comments are ready for you to view.
About Us:
The Writing Center is a part of Instructional Support Services (ISS), the division of the University which provides assistance to students in areas of science and math, reading, and writing. The services of the Writing Center, as well as those provided by other Instructional Support Centers, are supported by the University and are provided at no cost to the student. Other ISS support centers include ComputerWorks (Eldridge 135), Natural Science Center (Eldridge 126), and the ISS Administration (Eldridge 117).
The Writing Center provides trained peer tutors who work with students and faculty to improve critical writing skills. The tutors work one-to-one or in small group settings to help students with all types of writing at any stage of the writing process. Our aim is to help learners to be more effective and more efficient thinkers. We attempt to help the student become a better writer and thinker, not just to improve a specific assignment. Our goal is to encourage true education.
