Find writing resources to help you with your academic writing and assignments. You can also check out the Books on Academic Writing page to find a selection of books to help you enhance your writing skills.

Editing Assistance for Graduate Students

With the permission of their supervisor, graduate students who are writing a thesis or dissertation may seek an academic editor. Whereas a writing consultant’s goal is to develop the skills of graduate students, an academic editor does not provide writing instruction. Instead, their goal is to edit the work for clarity, concision, and grammar. If you wish to pay for an academic editor, we recommend reaching out to the Editors’ Association of Canada at https://editors.ca.

Generative AI

The Generative AI Guidelines outlines when you can use generative AI in a course and how to acknowledge its use.

The Assignment Planner

The assignment planner is your time management resource to help you stay on top of your assignments. It'll help you navigate through the various stages of the research and writing process by helping you break your assignment down to manageable tasks.
