Personal Statement Workshop
The personal statement and supplemental essay questions are your chance to tell the admissions officers who you are, what makes you different, and why they should want you to join their institution.
Nestor Walters, a Navy SEAL turned Stanford student, has created these amazing (and hilarious) tutorials to help you with this tricky process. Follow along with the downloadable scripts, and stay tuned for more episodes. Of note, there is no right way to craft a personal statement; these are simply opinions. Reach out if you have any questions!
Special thank you to Nestor for his incredible insight and Jeffrey Parrish for editing each and every video.
