​​Submit a paper for
written feedback here

Receive written feedback on your writing project within 24 hours. No meeting with a tutor is necessary.

Submit a paper as a Microsoft Word or PowerPoint doc ONLY (NO pdfs or other file types) and receive an email with written feedback, typically within 24 hours. Available 7 days a week, excluding federal holidays. 

Special note: Our “written feedback” option only allows Microsoft Word docs and PowerPoints because we can add comments and edits. We cannot do this with PDFs. All Woodbury students have access to the entire Microsoft Suite through their school emails. Look for the blue Word icon on the upper left side of your email page.

Students can also download the suite through Microsoft by going to this site and typing in their Woodbury email address.

Finally, most other programs allow you to save your paper as a Word document.
