The Disability Services Opt-In program was created to improve access to writing help for students registered with Disability Services. Students who enroll in the program meet with the same tutor at the same time each week.
Students admitted to the program determine a regular day and time to meet with their consultant. The Disability Services Opt-In Coordinator sets up the appointments at the beginning of the semester to ensure that the student is able to meet with the same consultant throughout the term. We can admit students to the program up to mid-term, or as long as the Writing Center schedule allows for consistent booking of an Opt-In consultant.
To apply for the Disability Services Opt-In Program, email dsoptin@gmu.edu to schedule a brief consultation with our Disability Services Opt-In Program Coordinator. During the consultation, you will review the Opt-In Program policies together. If the Disability Services Opt-In Program is a good fit for your goals, the Coordinator will set up your recurring weekly appointments.
Writers registered with Disability Services who do not join the Opt-In program are welcome to make their own appointments using our online scheduler.
