HOW THE WRITERSWEEKLY UNIVERSITY CLASSES WORK: When you sign up, your email receipt will contain the date when your class begins. On the Friday before the class begins, you will get an orientation email with more information. A new lecture and assignment is sent to all students every Monday during the run of the class. Students participate at their leisure, anytime that week, via email. We know how busy everybody is, which is why we don't make everybody come to a certain webpage at a certain time on that day. All students correspond directly with the instructor during the course of the class. But, you can always email wwu-support - at - writersweekly.com if you're having any difficulties.
