Steps to submit
  1. Email Jo Darden, Director of the Online Writing Center, at jdarden@ccbcmd.edu. Please include as much information about your submission as you can, including a copy of the assignment, any additional attachments that could be helpful and a working draft if you have one. 
  2. Within 48-72 hours, an OWL faculty member will respond to your submission. Use the feedback as a guide for your rewrite.
  3. Once you have used the OWL feedback to create a better draft of your assignment, you might want OWL to take a second look at what you’ve written. No problem! Send your “revised draft” to OWL and we will be happy to review it.
