UCAS Support

So, you've found your dream course...

now let's make it happen....

Writing a UCAS application is, I believe, simply an affirmation of the rightness of your chosen course. There is one remaining year for the personal statement, before it is replaced with three targeted questions, but all universities want is evidence that you are passionate about your studies, that you know what you are choosing to study and have some experience to show that you are well suited for these studies and will both be happy and successful. A win-win situation for both you and them.

Whilst initially daunted by the prospect, following a 1-1 session where I ask the right questions and support, all my students have gone on to enjoy writing their statement and are proud of their final version, believing it has helped them to gain their five offers. This has always been a favourite aspect of my job , and one that I am keen to offer online. I offer a 1-1 Zoom interview, give tips on how to structure the statement, asking leading questions to help determine what to include and then review and comment on personal statements until we are both happy with the final result.

Potential students will be asked to brainstorm and share all their relevant ideas before the zoom meeting.

"Mrs Jenkins was a tremendous help in guiding me through completing my UCAS applications. She took the time to give in depth comments on my personal statement, giving me solutions and suggestions to challenges I faced when I initially began writing and shwas dedicated to perfecting it regardless of how many drafts it took. It was with her help that I managed to secure four out of five university offers and make it to interview stage. Her dedication to ensuring each and every student is extremely well supported in submitting their UCAS application is commendable, and I truly cannot think of a better person to help other aspiring students with their own applications."
