POST-VISIT CONFIRMATION EMAIL AND SURVEY
The Writing Resource Center will send an email to all students who have completed a tutoring session. It will be sent on the day of the appointment after 9:00pm. This email can be used as proof of your attendance (provided that you don't cancel or miss your appointment). It also includes a link to a short survey that you may use to comment on your recent tutoring session.
If you need a copy of your proficiency exam, please visit the Writing Resource Center at 132 West 21st Street, 9th floor (weekdays, between 930am-430pm).
We cannot share PEs via email unless you took the exam online. If your tutoring session is online, you will need to type your essay (with errors) and share it with the tutor.

Public Speaking Lab (PSL) Reservation
The WRC will offer time each week to work with one of our trained speech and language consultants (in-person), who will help tailor your message and delivery to prepare you for an upcoming interview, speech, presentation, or other speech-related projects. Our consultants can also help with general feedback and support with your public speaking skills.
