Community Writing Center

Writing Support Beyond the University

Writing happens everywhere, not just in the classroom. The ECU Community Writing Center (CWC) extends the University Writing Center’s support beyond campus by providing thoughtful, individualized writing feedback to all members of Eastern North Carolina.  

Whether you are preparing for a new job, applying to college, pursuing a scholarship, or working on your first novel, our writing consultants can help you strengthen your writing and bolster your confidence to finish your task!  

Who is the Community Writing Center for?

The CWC serves community members throughout Greenville, NC who are looking for support with important personal and professional writing. 

You do not need to be a current ECU student to work with us. 

What Can We Help With?

Our consultants currently provide feedback on: 

• Resumes 

• Cover letters 

• College application essays 

• Statements of purpose 

• Scholarship essays and application materials 

• Various forms of Creative Writing  

Rather than simply correcting your writing, our consultants provide feedback designed to help you make informed decisions as a writer and strengthen your final document. 

How It Works

1. Send us your draft.
   Email your document to communitywriting@ecu.edu.
2. Include helpful context.
   If you are applying for a job, include the job posting. If you are responding to an application or essay prompt, send that along too.
3. Receive personalized feedback.
   An ECU writing consultant will review your work and provide comments and revision suggestions.
