Hi. I have question for some essays i have to write. Basically i feel like im being left in the deep. My tutors apparently cannot look at my drafts.. so who can? Is it considered cheating if i pay someone to help me with my essays?

Collusion occurs when you work without the authorisation of the teaching staff to:

  • - work with one or more people to prepare and produce work
  • - allow others to copy your work or share your answer to an assessment task
  • - allow someone else to write or edit your work (except for the use of a scribe approved by Disability Services)
  • - write or edit work for another student
  • - offer to complete work or seek payment for completing academic work for other students.

Your tutor may not be allowed to look at your essay, but I'm sure he would help if you needed general assistance for an approach/direction to your essays. Same goes for any friends you may have.

Tutors can help you with specific questions, clarifications and structuring but they can't read the essay and give you general feedback as that would give you an unfair advantage as it would be getting your essay essentially marked before everyone else and a chance to fix it.

Not to mention tutors don't have time to check everyone's essay individually before submission date especially since 90% of inquiries would come in one or two days before it's due.
