COVID-19 & Your Personal Statement in 2020
In these strange and uncertain times, people all across the globe are being forced to think about their futures in ways they had never before considered. As educational authorities attempt to manage cancelled exams, predicted grades, and university admissions, alongside the decision on when to re-open schools to the wider population, thousands of students face the same question: will Coronavirus damage their chances of achieving a place at university?
COVID-19 and Your Personal Statement
Whilst teachers across the UK continue to provide care and attention, both academic and pastoral, to their students at a time when their university applications appear under threat of delay, there has never been a more important time for students to invest time in the crafting of a unique and compelling personal statement.
The writing of a personal statement is a daunting task for every university applicant, whether at the undergraduate or postgraduate level. Personal statements submitted via UCAS must be no more than 4000 characters and should highlight the qualities of the applicant beyond their grades. The subsequent academic uncertainty resulting from the impact of COVID-19 means that in many cases exams have been cancelled and students are increasingly admitted to universities based on their previous academic achievements. Given these circumstances, there has never been a more crucial time to assist university applicants by helping them stand out from their peers in an increasingly competitive process. In many cases, those students requiring the most support with university applications and personal statements often do not benefit from the additional structure and guidance frequently associated with a public school education.
