How To Become a Peer Consultant

Babson’s Peer Consultants go through a multi-step process in order to become Peer Consultants. The timeline is as follows:

Fall Semester

Director solicits faculty recommendations for talented writers who are second- or third-year Babson undergraduates
Recommended students are invited by email to apply
Students submit an application form and writing sample to the Director by email
Some students are invited for an interview with the Director and current Peer Consultants
Selected students are invited to enroll in the permission-only course ENG4602-01, a 4-credit advanced writing course which also emphasizes tutoring strategies

Students enroll in ENG4602-01
Students who earn an A or B are invited to work as Peer Consultants in the Babson Writing Center, beginning the next Fall or Spring
