Arcadia England

We are excited to launch The London Center’s Academic Studio. New this semester, the studio is open to all students enrolled in study-abroad Arcadia programmes in England and Wales.

Resident faculty can advise and support you via weekly office hours throughout the semester. We encourage you to ask us about any aspects of academic life about which you are unsure. Individual sessions will run on a first-come-first-served basis and, during busier times, will typically last between ten and fifteen minutes. Skype tutorials are available for students studying outside of London.

The main services that we offer are:

• Editing essays and other coursework: please bring a hard copy of the assignment and come with specific questions and points of concern. Studio staff will not proofread work, and may not have time to read the entire paper or project.
• General writing support: students of all levels require guidance with the organisation, presentation, and argumentation of their written work. You can seek help in how to improve the general standard of your writing. We can also assist with issues surrounding grammar, syntax, and referencing.
• Research methods: receive support on how to conduct research, both primary and secondary, for your assignments. You’ll get advice on how to construct a strong bibliography of appropriate sources.
• Other academic advice: the Studio also offers assistance with the writing of applications for further study or experience, such as internships and graduate programmes.

*For appointments outside these times, or for skype sessions, please email london@arcadia.edu.
