Personal Statement Writing Workshop
This hour-long, free workshop is aimed to help students at all stages of writing
their personal statements for graduate or professional programs. The first twenty
minutes of the workshop will feature a guest speaker with experience in the post-secondary
admissions process as she explains common errors or “red flags” that admissions
committees see in applicants’ personal statements. The remainder of the workshop
will be split into working groups dependent upon which stage of the writing process
students feel they are in: planning, writing, or revising. We will have discipline-specific
resources to provide students applying to health programs and academic programs,
and the session will be led by graduate and undergraduate tutors from a variety
of disciplines. Students are encouraged to sign up
here but registration is not required.
