Should the statement align closely to the course content?


Do admissions tutors value Access to HE students who align their personal statement closely to the subject content of their chosen course?

It is very important for students to focus on the specific course they are applying for in both the personal statement and if they are invited to interview. The tutors are looking for students that have a passion for a specific profession and a commitment to study. Particularly as the Health Professional courses are demanding and require both academic and practice placement work.

It’s not just about proving you can handle the academic side, but also showing admissions tutors that you genuinely understand the profession you’re applying for, and that you’re motivated to take on the challenges that come with it.
