Welcome to the Writing Centre!

We offer appointments for help with writing, reading and studio practice to all students, staff and faculty at Emily Carr University of Art + Design.

Our peer tutors help at all stages of the work process (brainstorming to final drafts) and with personal or academic projects.

SUMMER 2 TERM: The Writing Centre is open for appointments and drop-ins Mon-Thu – view the schedule here.

The Writing Centre space is open whenever Writing Centre staff are on campus, which is usually 9:30 – 5:00 but can vary with staff availability.

In the ECUAD Library (2nd Floor)
