One-on-one writing consultations are available for enrolled University of Maryland, College Park graduate students. Consultations are available when classes are in session during Fall, Spring, and Summer 1 and 2 terms.

Writing Fellows, as a service to the Graduate School, provide one-on-one writing consultation for graduate students. Fellows work with graduate students within their colleges on structure, argument, disciplinary expectations, citation, voice, syntax, and, as appropriate, usage and grammar.

Writing Fellows are a select, trained group of graduate students who are outstanding in their fields, who write eloquently, and who work well with their peers.

Writing Fellows do not edit, but rather work collaboratively with students on their writing.  Learn more about the Graduate School Writing Center.

The Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE) is now part of the Teaching and Learning Transformation Center (TLTC). TLTC is the campus’ central partner for improving undergraduate and graduate education. The TLTC responds to the needs of instructors, graduate TAs, programs, schools and colleges to ensure that the University of Maryland remains an international model of excellence in teaching and learning. The TLTC facilitates and supports new innovations in teaching, helps instructors teach more effectively, and works to ensure that all graduate student teachers develop as excellent instructors. For more information about the programs, events, and resources that TLTC provides to campus instructors, please visit tltc.umd.edu.

The Graduate Student Government (GSG) is the only campus organization sponsored, staffed, and run exclusively by graduate students. They are completely independent of the university administration, and they report only to the graduate student body. They advocate for graduate students on and off campus, bringing their concerns to University officials, USM officials, the Board of Regents, and lawmakers.  For more information, visit the GSG website.
