What papers does the OWL accept?

Can I just send my paper to the OWL for the tutor to fix it?
No, the OWL tutors cannot proofread or “fix” the paper for you, but they can point out mistakes and make suggestions.

How many drafts can I submit to the OWL?
You can submit as many drafts as you want, but you should revise them first to incorporate the tutor’s feedback.

Who will read my paper?
The English coordinator and peer-tutors are usually the only people who see your paper.

How will the OWL tutor reply to my paper?
An English tutor will comment on your paper and then email it to you as an attachment.

When will the OWL tutor reply to my paper?
You will get your paper back within 48 business hours. We are closed on the weekend, so if you send it on a Saturday, you should get a response by the end of the day on Tuesday.
