A personal statement is just what its name implies—a statement that tells the admissions and enrollments department is reviewing your application something personal about you. The personal statement that has the most impact is the one that gives the admissions and enrollments department some insight into your aplomb and what unique qualities you would bring to the student body of the college. This is your best opportunity to highlight information about yourself that may be missing or lost in your application.

NB: All letters of recommendation MUST be sealed with signature of the recommender across the seal. Any letter with unsealed or broken seal will not be accepted.
