Drop-ins

Drop-ins across campus

At drop-in and pre-booked appointments, you can meet with a friendly and experienced peer tutor to talk about understanding your assignment , organizing your thoughts and ideas, communicating your ideas clearly, incorporating your research and citing sources, getting and staying motivated, and whatever else you need help with for your writing or communication assignments in any faculty!  

Winter 2026

Drop-ins hours in the SLC 

We hold drop-in hours at our Undergraduate Writing Café every Wednesday, 2:15-4:15, until April 1. SLC 3221. Come for the coffee and writing support and stay and write in our bright, sunny space! 

Drop-in appointments at The Write Spot 

Thursdays, 1:00-4:00, until April 2. 

Drop by The Write Spot on the second floor of South Campus Hall. Our receptionist will book you in for a 25–50 minute appointment with our tutor, depending on demand. Grab a coffee or tea and work in our comfortable space. Drop-ins are available for those who have already had 100 minutes of appointments in a week, but we will prioritize students who have not yet booked appointments that week.
