Applicant Support Programme: UCAS and Personal Statements

Do you want to know how to make a competitive application?

Sign-up to our Applicant Support Programme.

Your personal statement is an important part of your application and provides the best opportunity to stand out. In this online webinar, we will run you through everything you need to know about UCAS and personal statements, while giving you the tips you need to succeed in making a competitive application to the Foundation Year course.

We will discuss:

• What a personal statement is and why it is important.
• What makes a good personal statement.
• What we are expecting in your personal statement.
• What you should and should not include.
• Top tips for writing your personal statement.

We recommend you have a go at starting your personal statement before attending the webinar; this could mean you write anything from 3 lines to a first draft. You will not be asked to share this in any way. After the webinar, we hope you'll be able to take on board the information acquired to edit your draft.

This session is part of the Applicant Support Programme: a series of monthly webinars, to help you through the applicant process step by step.

All sessions in the Programme will be recorded and available for you to view until 26 January, 2022.
