The Center for Writing & Learning (CWL) offers a variety of services that aim to help your student succeed. Students can stop by Howarth Hall 109 to meet with writing advisors, subject tutors, language partners, and academic consultants. The CWL staff can help with specific classes, general organization, and more.
The CWL also offers a calm and relaxed space for all undergraduate and graduate students to work and study during open hours, including evenings and weekends, no appointment required! With academic reference materials, fidget toys, and comfortable seating, it's a great place to get homework done.

|
Puget Sound recommends students look into purchasing renter's insurance.
