PERSONAL STATEMENT
The personal statement is one of the most important parts of your application. It’ s an opportunity to tell your chosen university why you’ re interested in this particular course and why they should choose you.
You may be aware that the UCAS personal statement has changed from one long piece of text to three questions. The three questions are:
Why do you want to study this course or subject?
How have your qualifications and studies helped you to prepare for this course or subject?
What else have you done to prepare outside of education, and why are these experiences useful?
