Hi there! I was wondering if anyone is still active here! This has been the only place I have been able to find others applying to the Blakemore Fellowship. I applied last year for chinese, but was not awarded a fellowship, so I will be applying again this year. After much review, I found that my personal statement is likely what needs work. I was wondering if someone might have some tips to offer of different things to include or discuss, or maybe the tone of the statement, length, etc. that might help. If anyone else is applying for the next cycle as well, I'd be thrilled to connect!
