Personal statements: Europe vs. US


Recommended Posts

I'm an American student applying for Msc degrees in the UK and The Netherlands. Has anyone had experience with writing SOPs for European universities? Are the expectations the same or different from US schools? For my apps there are handly any guidelines and since I've been enducated in the US, I have no idea what European school are looking for. Any advice?

hi EGMann,

 

I have some experience with EU schools. Generally they asked for similar statement with similar requirement served for similar purpose. You can just modify your SoP for US school to them. Though I think their criteria for selection is not the same as US schools. Nevertheless i think you can first get in touch with POI, if possible, and ask for their opinion.
