Welcome to the MSU Denver Writing Center

The MSU Denver Writing Center can help with any writing assignment, at any stage of the writing process. We also support writers across all writing levels and in any discipline. We can help with summary/response papers, journals, case studies, research projects, collaborative projects, digital projects, resumes, applications, presentations, and more! 

Appointments

50-Minute 1:1 Consultations

The MSU Denver Writing Center offers three different types of appointments: 50-minute 1 on 1 consultations, Documentation Drop (Doc Drop) appointments, and the RIDES program. 

The video on the left will show you, step by step, how to book a 50-minute appointment with the Writing Center. To book an appointment, select “Make an Appointment” below.

Doc Drop Appointments

Doc Drop consulting allows students to submit their work online for one of our writing consultants to review. Once your draft is uploaded, you can expect a response in four business days. Plan accordingly!

Consultants will spend up to one hour reading and responding to up to 10 double-spaced pages. If your submission is longer than 10 pages, please note which section you’d like the consultant to focus on. As with our other types of writing sessions, our consultants will prioritize giving feedback on higher-order concerns (such as ideas, organization, and thesis statement) rather than sentence-level or grammatical concerns, unless you specifically ask for feedback on particular aspects of grammar or punctuation. Consultants may offer feedback regarding patterns of grammatical errors if they impede their understanding of the paper. 

Ready to submit to Doc Drop? From the Writing Center’s “Available Schedules”, select “Submissions for Doc Drop Consulting” to submit your writing. 

The RIDES Program

Would you like to feel more confident in your English language skills? Would you like to develop a better understanding of grammar and/or punctuation? Want to spend some time adding to your English vocabulary? The RIDES Program is for you!

Note: We are currently not accepting new students for the RIDES Program. Current students, please reach out so we can connect you to your established consultants!
