Where to put a personal statement

- What educational experience do you have?
- Do you have any relevant work experience?
- Have you completed any extracurricular or voluntary activities relevant to the programme?

Some programmes ask for programme-specific information in your personal statement. Check your programme in the Graduate Prospectus for details.
