Welcome to the George Mason Writing Center. I'm Eric, your friendly neighborhood webmaster here to show you how to create an account and schedule a tutoring appointment with one of our wonderful friendly tutors. So this is the Writing Center's homepage. You can access it at writingcenter.gmu.edu. From here, in addition to lots of other stuff, you can access our online scheduler, mywc online. First, though, this register link will take you to our policies page. And after you've registered, you can just log right in. But for this first time, we want you to be aware of how we operate, how long our sessions are, with your like, tutoring restrictions, what you can expect from our tutors, all that kind of good stuff. So once you've read through and agreed to our policies, click this button to go to the actual registration page. And you can see I've already filled out some of this information. So once you have all of that done, go ahead and click register. And then that will take you to our actual login page. So use your Mason email address. Yahu or Gmail will not work here. And the password that you just created. And then that will take you to the actual scheduler. So there are basically two really important things for you to know about this scheduler. The first is that we have multiple locations and types of appointments, which you can see with this drop down menu here. The second is that the colors on the schedule mean lots of different things. The most important one to know is the white blocks, which represent the times that are available for you to schedule with us. So once you click the white box, this window to schedule a appointment will come up. And here, just tell us the course that you're taking. The instructor, the assignment, so maybe a research paper, for example. And what you would like to work on. A lot of students want to work on grammar. And that's fine. But try to think of other stuff that would be helpful. So for example, maybe transitions, the organization of the paper, thesis statements are always good. And then tell us whether it's for an online course, and whether you've been referred to us by the Office of Academic Integrity. If you have been referred to us by the OAI, please let us know. It is important for a wide variety of reasons. Once you're done with that, just go ahead and click Save appointment. And you'll get a success window. And you'll also get a confirmation email to let you know that we did schedule the appointment. If you find that you made a mistake in scheduling your appointment or you can't make it, you can go ahead and click the gold box that indicates the appointment you just scheduled. Scroll to the bottom of the window that opens up and click Cancel Disappointment. Another success window. We love success here. And if you're trying to make an appointment, but you can't find one that fits your schedule, you can go ahead and click this clock to get onto our wait list and fill in the appropriate information. And once you join that wait list, you'll get an email if somebody cancels an appointment. And that'll let you know that the appointment is now available. It does not necessarily mean that you have the appointment though. Once you get that email, you need to get onto our scheduler and book the appointment because all of them here are first come first serve. So that in a nutshell is everything that you need to know about the Writing Center. And scheduling an appointment with us. We hope to see you in here. We really love working with students. So schedule an appointment, come and see us, and have a good day.
