The Hixon Writing Center offers one-to-one appointments to discuss writing with our staff of professional and undergraduate peer tutors. We offer both in-person and online appointments. Our center is located on the 3rd floor of the Center for Students Services.
To make an appointment, Caltech undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdocs should be able to access the "Writing Center Scheduling" link viaaccess.caltech.edu. Following that link takes you into our schedule so you can review the times we are available to meet with you and select one that works for your schedule.
If you are Caltech staff or a visitor, you will not have access to our schedule via access.caltech.edu. If you wish to meet with us and cannot visit our schedule, please send an email to writing@caltech.edu. We accommodate such requests as resources allow. We do not offer appointments for writers outside the Caltech community, and we do not serve researchers at JPL.
We offer appointments year-round. We are closed during Caltech holidays and have reduced availability between academic terms.
You probably have more questions about who our staff are and what a meeting with us involves. See our Frequently Asked Questions for more information about the one-to-one support we provide to writers.
From access.caltech.edu, navigate to the "Writing Center Scheduling" app under Academic Services.
