Description
Presented by CNS Career Services and the Office of Experiential Learning:
One of the most common questions we get from CNS students when they are applying to graduate school is “How do I write a personal statement or statement of purpose?” We hope to clarify what should be in your graduate school admissions essays in this workshop and give you tools to help you jumpstart the writing process.
If you can’t attend the event at the scheduled time, please RSVP anyway to receive the recording after the workshop. Past event recordings.
For questions about accessibility or to request an accommodation, please contact cns.exl@austin.utexas.edu at least 5 business days prior.
