Using TurnItIn for Individual Documents

Caution: If you choose to use this method for your own research papers, manuscripts, or unpublished work, be sure to select “No Repository” in the “Submit Papers to:” drop-down menu. This prevents the submission from being stored in Turnitin’s repository and helps avoid false matches against your own work in the future.

 

Go to the main TurnItIn website (https://www.turnitin.com/). Under the Log In menu, select Log in as instructor or student.
