Writing up a personal statement can be a daunting task! Find yourself staring at a blank word document? Or maybe you decided to do a “free-type” session and ended up miles above the word limit? Either way, we are here to help you! 

 

First, for those who are unsure about what things to write about, we have you sorted! Check out our menu below where we have basically scoured the internet for cool (and often free!) opportunities which you can get involved with and then talk about in your personal statements. We tried to get everything all in one place so explore the different options and have a look at which flavour you may want to savour a bit longer! The personal statement is personal for a reason - you get to write about whatever you want; it’s just about demonstrating you care enough about your subject to explore beyond what school gives you. How you do that/what you do is your story so feel free to browse through and find your own resonance!

 

Now for those who are already pretty clear on what they want to say and just need help with structuring, we also have just the thing for you! Click on the typewriter below to check out our tips on how to put it all together, complete with a few examples!
