Writing Center
Mission
The purpose of the Seton Hall University Writing Center is to provide support for all students, staff, and faculty who require assistance with writing. Though the Writing Center commits a great deal of its resources to the First-Year Writing Program, we are open to anyone who is affiliated with the University - alumni, current students, faculty, administrators, and staff.

First Year Writing Program
All Seton Hall first-year students who take introductory English courses are required to visit the Writing Center as a graded part of their class work. Students taking College English I (English 1201) and II (English 1202) are typically required to attend one (1) session during the semester. Some students may have a slightly increased requirement. Students taking basic skills or linked 1201 classes are typically required to attend six (6) sessions at the Writing Center during the semester. Learn More »
