Once registered with a valid email address, you can upload your written assignment/essay (maximum of 5 pages) to be reviewed by a Graduate Writing Consultant. Telephone messages will be accepted (Ext 2700) to assist students with online writing support.”
- University Library Services: Students can use the CSUDH Library's Text-to-Speech conversion (provided with the support of Division of Information Technology) This alternative way of reading provides students the flexibility to listen to their course reading materials while doing something else at home. In addition, we know learning/reading needs repetition! Students can easily revisit their reading materials using this service.
We thank you for your patience during this difficult time!
