Personal Statements Workshop Series – Presented by the Office of Undergraduate Research and Fellowships and the Writing Studio

Workshop #1: November 10th @ 4:30 via Webex.  

Workshop #2: November 16th @ 12:00 via Webex.  

Are you having challenges fitting your internship, research, or work experiences into a 300-word limit prompt? Trying to decide which accomplishments and experiences would be of most interest to a scholarship selection committee? Unsure how to tie your extracurricular activities anecdote into your interest in graduate school? We’re here to help! The Office of Undergraduate Research and Fellowships (OURF) and the Writing Studio at Georgia State invite you to join us for “Personal Statements 101.”

In this workshop, students will work with Writing Studio tutors and OURF staff to learn how to define the personal statement; identify personal statement do’s and don’ts; identify which writing process works best for them when constructing a personal statement; and start drafting (or revising!) their own personal statements. Students at any stage of the writing process are welcome!
