Writing CenterWelcome to the Writing Center at NVCC Alexandria Campus
The ability to speak and write in a clear, organized, and effective way is essential not only in school, but more importantly, in the real world. The WAC was established to help all the campus students strengthen their writing abilities. The central focus of the Center's services for students is peer review, provided through the writing conference program.


News and Updates:   

Summer Consultations will begin on Tuesday, May 27.  As a student enrolled in summer classes, you are eligible to receive one 40-minute session each day. 

Make an appointment by stopping by the center (AA 340)or call 703-845-6054.  See you soon. 


 

  • Each student is limited to one appointment per day.

  • If you cannot keep your appointment, it is your responsibility to let us know so we can give your time to another student.

  • If you arrive more than 10 minutes late, you forfeit your reservation to other students who may have come in before you.

  • If you arrive late or miss ONE scheduled appointment without notification, you must speak to the director before you may make future appointments.  Your name will be marked out until the director has talked with you and has approved future appointments.

  • If you arrive late or have skipped a scheduled appointment without notice more than twice in one semester, you lose the privilege of reserving time with a consultant for the remainder of the semester.  You may ONLY be served as a walk-in only.  There will be no exceptions to this rule. 

Our goal is to provide you with on-going quality reading, writing and ESL language assistance.  We depend on your assistance and reliability to keep our service active and able to help you in future terms.
