- Professional consultants and Writing Faculty will be available and appointments are scheduled through WSSU’s online tutoring platform - UpSwing - which can be accessed 24/7. Consultants in UpSwing can tutor in any topic that is taught at WSSU, or in writing (at any point in the writing process, and for any course).
- In general, requests are answered within one business day. The best way to get the quickest response is via email although communicating via telephone, Zoom, and in-person (if necessary and possible) are also options.
