Writing Assistance Center - Alexandria

Welcome to the Writing Assistance Center. The WAC was established to help all NOVA students strengthen their writing abilities.

  • Each student is limited to one appointment per day.
  • If you cannot keep your appointment, it is your responsibility to let us know so we can give your time slot to another student.
  • If you arrive more than 10 minutes late, you forfeit your reservation to other students who may have come in before you.
  • If you arrive late or miss ONE scheduled appointment without notification, you must speak to the director before you may make future appointments. Your name will be marked out until the director has talked with you and has approved future appointment.
  • If you arrive late or have skipped a scheduled appointment without notice more than twice in one semester, you lose the privilege of reserving time with a consultant for the remainder of the semester. You may ONLY be served as a walk-in only. There will be no exceptions to this rule.

Our goal is to provide you with on-going quality reading, writing and ESL language assistance. We depend on your assistance and reliability to keep our service active and able to help you in future terms.

Stop by AA 229 to sign up or call 703.845.6054 to make an appointment.
