Send us your personal statement

If you have already applied, the statement you actually sent is worth more to the next student than any amount of advice. Especially with the results attached — a statement with an outcome is evidence; a statement on its own is just writing.

It does not matter which year you applied. UCAS changed the form in 2026, but not what admissions tutors are looking for — depth over breadth, what you made of a book rather than that you read it, one idea taken seriously. Statements from the old single-box format are just as useful to us, and we want them.

What we do with it

It is read by a human here, and used anonymised to sharpen our coaching.
It is never published, never shown to another student, and never used to write anybody else’s statement.
We ask for your email only so we can come back to you and so you can withdraw it.
You can have it deleted at any time by replying to the email we send you.

Where you applied, and what they said

Please include the rejections. They are the more useful half and almost nobody sends them — everyone forwards the offer. A statement that got four rejections and one offer teaches us far more than a statement that got five offers, because it shows where the line actually sits. No university ever learns you told us, and this is never published.

Which form did you write?

Three separate questions, 4,000 characters in total.

Section 1 — why this courseSection 2 — how your studies prepared youSection 3 — everything outside your studiesAnything you would tell someone applying this year (optional)

I am the author of this personal statement. I am happy for Writ to use it, in anonymised form, to improve the coaching it gives other students. I understand it will never be published, shown to another student, or used to write anybody else's statement, and that I can email Writ at any time to have it deleted.

Are you 18 or over?

If you are under 18, we ask a parent or guardian to agree as well. That is our own extra care with your writing (the law lets you agree yourself from 13), not a judgement about it.

We need your name, an email, the subject, section 1, whether you are 18 or over, and the tick above.
