Directions for Making & Attending Appointments
LIVE VIDEO tutoring: You meet with your tutor online, using visual and/or audio technology.
Making Your Appointment
- Use the space to the left to log into the Writing Center’s online scheduling service.
- Once the scheduling page appears, click the WHITE BOX (or the available appointment time) that best fits your availability.
- A new window titled “Create New Appointment” will pop up, which lets you schedule the length of your appointment (30 minutes or 60 minutes). We highly recommend that you book an hour-long appointment, even if you think you don't need that much time. The "30-minute" appointments are actually 25 minutes long, and the "60-minute appointments" are actually 50 minutes long, so it is always better to have too much time than not enough!
- In the “Meet Online” box, you will see one option: LIVE VIDEO. Click “Yes. Schedule LIVE VIDEO Appointment.”
- Fill out the remaining sections of the appointment form, including uploading your work. To upload your work, scroll to the bottom of appointment page and attach the files related to the work you want to review (i.e. assignment prompts, outlines, drafts, etc.). All files must be Word files (i.e., .doc or .docx files).
- Click “Create Appointment.” The online appointment is now scheduled!
Logging in for your appointment
Five minutes before your session:
- Log into WCOnline.
- Click on your appointment to pull up the appointment form.
- In the “Meeting Online?” box, click on the hyperlink that says: “Start or Join a LIVE VIDEO Consultation.”
- You’re ready for your appointment! The tutor will meet you when the appointment starts. You will receive a client report form summarizing the session and next steps by the end of the tutor's shift.
Fall and Spring ONLY
IN-PERSON Tutoring: You will meet with a tutor in 703 Byrnes. Byrnes is the building across from the Horseshoe on the corner of Sumter & College and is the same building with the iHub Apple Store. Enter on the College Street side of the building & take the elevator to the 7th floor.
