Personal Statements

Hello Writers!

We will spend the next two weeks drafting and revising Personal Statements.  Everyone is expected to write these - regardless of your purpose.  You may want to submit these for college applications, some will use these for Scholarship requests.  Others will want to practice some short cohesive writing that allows you to think critically of your experiences and situations.
