Grammarly Premium

The Division of Graduate Studies subscribes to Grammarly Premium, providing 400+ points of grammar checking, a built-in plagiarism checker, and learning management system (LMS) integration. If you do not receive an invitation from Grammarly for membership at the Premium level at the start of your first quarter of graduate studies or at the start of your employment as a postdoctoral scholar at UCSC, contact Sonya Newlyn at snewlyn@ucsc.edu.

Premium Features

• The Grammarly add-in allows you to use Grammarly while you’re writing Word documents.
• Grammarly’s red underlining is easy to see and clearly marks where the error is, and it is easy to dismiss the advice.
