When you Need to Hire a Dissertation Editor Fast

"Hi, are you available to edit my dissertation? My deadline is this Friday."

If you’ve ever received these types of quick turnaround editing requests, you know there’s much more to learn about the project than just the deadline.

When you’re in need of edits fast, consider sharing this information when you first reach out to an editor to determine their availability:

  • The type of editing needed.

  • Dissertation length (word count, number of pages).

  • If you’re comfortable sharing a chapter or the entire dissertation, this can help the dissertation editor get a better sense of how much work will be involved.

  • When your dissertation will be ready for editing.

  • Your deadline for when you will select an editor.

  • Your deadline for receiving the final edited document.

  • Your phone number and availability to talk over the next 24 hours in case the editor has any questions.

  • The required style guide (APA, Chicago, etc.).

  • Any university/department-specific guidelines that need to be followed.

    The more details you provide right away, the quicker the editor will be able to determine if they can assist with your project.
