Most universities allow students to obtain copy-editing services. This service involves correcting a piece of writing for grammatical errors including punctuation, spelling, sentence structure, verb agreement and tense.
The cost of editing a piece of writing in this manner will be calculated per hour, and this will depend upon the manuscript length and the extent of editing required.
(Note: in line with university regulations, this editing service does not include structural editing. No changes will be made to the structure, argument or ideas, and no advice will be given in relation to a task question. This editorial service is legitimate and aimed at ensuring your expression and grammar are polished. Your paper will not be written for you, so you will not be suspended from university!)
Please note that very lengthy academic work with strict deadlines will most likely not be accepted for editing.
If you wish to make use of this online copy-editing service to polish your essays, articles or short academic work, please submit a General Enquiry Form. You will then be contacted via email with an initial quote and instructions on how to make an up-front payment through this website and how to submit your manuscript for editing.
