SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Personal Statement Workshop
DESCRIPTION:PERSONAL STATEMENTS & GRADUATE SCHOOL APPLICATIONS\n\nOne of the biggest hurdles for many in the grad school application process is the Personal Statement. This workshop will support you in the writing process. The Personal Statement requires a different form and serves a different function than other forms of professional and academic writing.\n\nTogether\, with a Hub coach and your peers\, we will work together to establish what makes a powerful and effective personal statement.\n\nYou should attend this workshop if you are:\n\nA liberal arts and/or sciences (LSA) student\n\nInterested in learning more about the possibility (and realities) of grad school\n\nDeciding if advanced study is a step you want to take\n\nCurious about what writing a Personal Statement entails (i.e what even is it?)\n\nLooking for some guidance for assessing if your Personal Statement is aligned with your interests and goals\n\nWhat you’ll gain by attending:\n\nInsight into best practices when writing a Personal Statement from various perspectives\n\nUnderstanding of different requirements and formats for different graduate schools\n\nHow to attack the writing process in an order that makes the most sense\n\nExploring and deciding between your varied experiences to provide schools with a well-rounded portrayal\n\nDiscover resources available to you throughout your application process\n\nIdentify areas of improvement within your existing personal statement\n\nThe Opportunity Hub aims to deliver inclusive and accessible experiences and welcomes all LSA students to participate. This event is on the first floor of a wheelchair accessible building which includes wheelchair-accessible restrooms on the first floor\, a gender-inclusive and accessible restroom on the first floor as well\, and places to sit or stand during the event.
