This service is for full or proposal dissertations or theses. I edit your work from the abstract to the appendices, covering everything from formatting, grammar, structure, academic voice, and compliance with your preferred academic style (APA7, MLA, etc.). I run a check on your references and make sure that your reference list aligns with in-text references, that your references are formatted correctly, and that references are alphabetized correctly in the in-text and the reference list. Your work will be returned to you within two weeks. You receive a copy of your original manuscript, a marked-up version, and a clean copy of your edited manuscript.
