Your personal statement is your opportunity to grab the admission officers’ attention.  To achieve this, we suggest opening with a relevant quote, personal anecdote, work success story, tag line, philosophical musing, or ethical statement about your latest jaw-dropping accomplishment.  Then, go beyond your opening quote or story: draw themes and patterns, mention soft skills, and reframe shortcomings.  Next, explain how you’ve grown, and how the university or academic program you are applying to will help you further hone your skills and help you achieve your career goals.

We’ll help you write an engaging personal statement that depicts your personality while highlighting your past achievements, present activities, and future goals so admissions officers can fully understand who you are, and why you would be an asset to their academic community.
