THE PHILADELPHIA WRITING PROJECT

Middle and high school students (6th-12th grade) are invited to attend weekly drop-in sessions from October through December at the Philadelphia Writing Project, during which undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral students from the University of Pennsylvania will be available to discuss and collaboratively revise and edit students’ writing pieces. These pieces can include submissions to the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, college scholarship and admission essays, and school assignments.

Meetings will take place Friday nights from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. from October 1 through December 3 (no meeting 11/26) either virtually or in person on Penn's campus.
