We will accept 25 submissions per week, after which the OWL will close until the Sunday of the following week.
When you submit your writing to the OWL, you will
a) first receive an automated email confirming that we have received your writing, and you willb) receive a second email after we've scheduled someone to respond to your writing. This second email will contain the date and time when we expect to respond to your submission.
Please understand that the second email is not automated, but generated by a real person, and we schedule OWL responses during normal working hours.
This system will help us manage the high volume of OWL submissions we receive and will let you, the writer, know when you can expect to receive your response and help you better plan your revision strategy.
This page allows you to send a copy of your writing to a writing assistant at the OSU Writing Center. Please follow ALL the steps below. It is very important that you answer all of the following questions about your writing. Without this information, the Writing Assistant will not be able to respond fully to your project´s purpose, context, audience, and concerns.
(provide the assignment description, page length, citation format, the due date, or any requirements. If possible, copy and paste the instructor's assignment description here.)
Be sure to include what you are trying to accomplish in your project, as well as any concerns or questions you may have. Here is an example: "I am writing an essay for my WR 121 class. Since this is supposed to be a rhetorical analysis, I want to make sure that I am not including too many of my own opinions rather than an analysis of the author's argument.
Describe what you think are your writing project´s strengths and weaknesses, especially those that you would like feedback on.
Describe the strengths and weaknesses of your project here.

Paste or type the text of your project here.
Once you have completed the above steps, press the SUBMIT button. To start over, press the RESET button. We will contact you and let you know when we will schedule your response. Thanks!
