What Sets Us Apart

Experience

Having a PhD doesn’t mean you’re qualified to edit somebody’s dissertation. An expert dissertation editor needs to have experience as a dissertation chair and committee member. Each of our editors is a veteran dissertation committee chair who has guided many students to completion. 

Comprehensiveness

Every dissertation we edit gets a far more comprehensive review than what most services offer. We go way beyond a traditional review of spelling, grammar, and APA style. Unlike other services, we also look at alignment, structural issues, and whether each section matches your university’s requirements. We also address each one of your committee members’ comments. And that’s just the beginning. 

Personalization

Your dissertation isn’t revised by a faceless editor. We schedule a video conference or phone call with each of our clients. We take the time to get to know you and your research, and even your chair’s idiosyncrasies. You will have access to your editor throughout the entire process and afterwards. If you get your paper back with more comments from your committee, we will help you address those free of charge.

The 3-Step Dissertation Editing Process

Step 1: Initial Consultation

You talk with your editor via Zoom or phone. They assess your needs and get a complete picture of your research needs and the goals of your academic scholarship.

Step 2: Editing

Your editor performs the comprehensive edit, making sure to address any comments from your committee.

Step 3: Continued Support

After the editing is complete, you have a call to go over the revisions with your editor. If your committee sends your dissertation back with additional comments, we will help you address those. For those enrolled in our Premium packages, we offer ongoing support for as long as you need it.

What is comprehensive editing?

Most dissertation editing services only cover APA style, spelling, and grammar. But what most people actually need to satisfy their committee are deeper, more thoughtful revisions. 

We cover the basics, but we also address structural and developmental issues, committee comments, alignment, institution-specific guidelines, style, and continuity in the document. We give you explicit instructions about how to address your committee’s comments and create a draft ready for acceptance.
