Faculty Consent to Review
We need your permission before reading over any exam or take-home essays you assign! Without this permission, we cannot read a submission that qualifies as an exam or take-home essay. 

 

 

Referring Your Students to the OWL?
As a courtesy to our writing tutors, we ask that faculty who refer their class to the OWL for a specific assignment provide notice at least one week before the deadline, excluding weekends, holidays, and university closures. 

If you plan to refer your students to the OWL, complete the form below.
