Writing personal statements for UCAS


When you apply for university courses via UCAS, you will be asked to submit a UCAS personal statement. Significantly, this doesn't just apply to you, it also applies to everyone else applying for university courses, and the course tutors use the personal statement to help decide who gets on the course (and who doesn't). Not only do you need to impress the course tutor with your statement, but if you want to guarantee your place then depending on place availability, you also need to make more of an impression on the course tutor than your competitors do.

Consequently, a top quality personal statement can improve your prospects of landing a place on your preferred course.

DIY statements > doing it yourself

Some students write their personal statement themselves - and if you want to do this then that is entirely your prerogative. At the same time, just be aware that many students - literally many thousands each year - gain the advantage over their competitors by engaging professional writers to improve their statement; frequently making it slicker, more polished, more persuasive and expertly targeted.

And make no mistake, a top quality personal statement can (and often does) make a difference.

Copying personal statement examples

Can't I just copy an example?
Well you could. And no one is going to stop you if you did. However, just be aware that this is something that the course tutors could notice, and even if they don't then UCAS just might. In fact on their website UCAS specifically state that they screen all personal statements using special similarity detection software.

Significantly, a lot of example personal statements are poor quality anyway, and if you use them you risk writing something that comes across as both unimpressive and very artificial.

It therefore doesn't make sense to copy a personal statement template / example. Besides, the best treatments are all personal, original and tailored not only for your own circumstances, but also for your target.

How we can help you

In short, we can create a 100% original powerful and persuasive statement for you that is centred around you and your own circumstances and professionally optimised for your target.

We can (and frequently) do, help students improve the prospects of being accepted on their preferred courses.
