Personal Statement or Essay
Another aspect of your grad school application is the personal statement or essay. Before you begin, download the Personal Essay tipsheet (PDF) for information on what to include in your statement, how to highlight your achievements, and more.
Letters of Recommendation
Although grades and test scores factor most heavily into your admission decision, your letters of recommendation could be the deciding factor in whether or not you get accepted to your program of choice.
The best letter writers are those who know you well and can provide a thorough evaluation of your ability to perform and succeed at the graduate level. If you can, try to acquire letters from faculty and supervisors of your internships or jobs, preferably those related to your field of study.
