If you are looking to apply for an undergraduate degree writing a personal statement is an essential component of a winning university application. Having supported many students through this process, we can help and guide you, drawing on your experiences and passions. We will guide you on how to structure your personal statement and will review what you produce and we will provide you with feedback to help you improve it to ensure your personal statement stands out for the right reasons. Writing a personal statement is all about giving you a competitive edge when applying for highly competitive degree courses.
Your personal statement is an opportunity for you to demonstrate your skills, what you can bring as a student to that degree course, and importantly, why you want to study that subject area. There are different ways to structure a personal statement. Most universities want to see a balance of your academic performance and what you have achieved outside school (sports, work experience, internships, projects or any other significant achievements or ventures).
We will help you write a personal statement for the subject area you are applying for and will help you demonstrate how you have developed your study skills from your experiences in school, working in teams, through work experience, positions of responsibility working in your local community, or through voluntary placements you have undertaken.
