Editing vs. Dissertation Format Review
Adler University's format reviewers do not edit dissertations for spelling, grammar, or word choice issues. Their focus is on adherence to APA style and to departmental style guides. More information on this service can be found here.
Some students may want to have their work professionally edited as well. Adler doesn't provide that service, but we do have information on freelance editors you may choose to contact. Their contact information is below and they can provide you with their rates. In general, please allow for 3 to 4 weeks turnaround time.
