UCAS Personal Statements - price on application

professional-graduate-cv-writing-berkshire-hampshire-oxfordshire-buckinghamshire-wiltshire
Deadline:
​15 January 2017 - for most undergraduate courses


​Your UCAS Personal Statement is possibly the only part of your university application over which you have any control - apart from achieving the grades!

Used wisely, you can sell yourself to your chosen universities, playing on your strengths, your ambitions and your potential.  After all, universities want not just candidates with the best grades, but students who will work well and fully integrate into university life, joining some of the many societies on offer and playing a vital role in the student community. The more their students participate, the better it reflects on the university's reputation and academic standing.

 

Read our Testimonials
It can be difficult to be introspective about yourself... Some people "big themselves up", others undersell themselves.  If you're really struggling about what to say, it could be worth talking to us. 

UCAS Personal Statements are not dissimilar to CVs in that they must present you as a good match for the university and your chosen course(s), and it must present your strengths, skills, interests, ambition and personality in the best possible light, without being fictitious. 

You only write one UCAS Personal Statement, so if you are applying for different courses at different universities, you'll need to find a common thread which makes the personal statement a good match for all of your chosen courses.  That takes a bit of planning and you will likely need to draft your statement several times before you get it right. 

Don't leave it until the last minute. The deadline for the majority of applications is 15 January 2017 with some course deadlines being a little earlier and some arts courses a little later.

If you're struggling, give us a call. But don't leave it too late.

A word about plagiarising...

There has been a lot of media coverage about students plagiarising (copying) personal statements from the internet.  We advise strongly against plagiarising from any source. 

UCAS use special computer software to screen all personal statements for plagiarisation, and all suspected applications are "flagged" before being forwarded to your chosen universities. This is not the best way to create a good impression!

With our help you can create a unique statement, personal only to you.

Invest in your future and contact me today.
Absolutely no obligation.
