    Objective

    The GW Writing Center is an open, welcoming, professional environment within which members of the GW community can receive dedicated attention to their writing and research projects.

    The GW Writing Center holds the International Writing Centers Association’s policy on diversity that writing centers “inclusively serve all students, including members of underrepresented groups such as people of color, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people, and people with a range of abilities, economic needs, and linguistic expression.”

    Appointment Policy
