Throughout the course of a dissertation, multiple rounds of editing and formatting adjustments may be required for a successful approval. At Optimum, we can format your dissertation draft so that your work meets the guidelines and is ready to submit for final review and upload. We will also provide you with tailored and highly specific feedback throughout the writing process. We’ll even point you toward other resources so that you become more familiar with your school or program’s chosen style guide and formatting requirements.

Our expert editors have graduate degrees and university-level teaching experience in literature, writing, and composition and rhetoric. With over 10 years of editing experience, we have detailed knowledge of APA style first and foremost, and CMOS, Harvard, MLA, and Turabian styles, as well.

As editors, it’s a point of pride that our clients’ work is clean and professional to an exceptional standard. We’ve worked with many clients who experience delays because their work does not meet their schools’ specific requirements for scholarly writing. Moreover, many reviewers at schools often focus on the technical aspects of dissertation writing to neglect the more fundamental aspects of a strong dissertation—which means that a perfectly edited submission will increase your chances of being readily approved. We can help you to present a finished draft so that your chair and committee focus their attention on your research, and only your research, throughout the dissertation process.

Also due to the unique background of our editors, we offer extensive assistance with any problems our clients have with references and citations. We can ensure that you are citing all sources correctly, and that the sources match up exactly between the chapters and the references page. We can also guide you into finding newer sources to meet the requirements of your program.

For researchers beginning their publication career or looking for a new editing service familiar with the ins-and-outs of APA editing and journal formatting, rest assured we can absolutely assist you, as well! Our team has experience editing for a wide range of audiences and on very short deadlines.
