Writing a Personal Statement for Hong Kong University Applications: A framework

Step 1: Choose a topic

Start by brainstorming a list of topics that you are passionate about and that you think would be of interest to the admissions committee. Some possible topics could include your academic interests, your extracurricular activities, your work experience, your personal values, or your goals for the future.

When choosing a topic, it is important to be specific. For example, instead of writing about your interest in law, you could write about your interest in criminal justice or public interest law.

Step 2: Gather your thoughts

Once you have chosen a topic, take some time to gather your thoughts. What are your specific experiences and insights related to this topic? What have you learned from these experiences? How has this topic shaped your goals and aspirations?

It is also helpful to think about why you are interested in attending the university to which you are applying. What makes this university the best fit for you? How will your unique experiences and perspectives contribute to the university community?

Step 3: Start writing!

Now it is time to start writing! Begin by introducing your topic and explaining why it is important to you. Then, share your specific experiences and insights, and explain how they have shaped you. Be sure to tie your experiences back to your academic and professional goals.

In your conclusion, restate your interest in the university and explain how your unique experiences and perspectives will contribute to the university community.

Step 4: Proofread and revise

Once you have finished writing your personal statement, be sure to proofread and revise it carefully. Check for grammar and spelling errors, and make sure that your writing is clear and concise. It is also helpful to ask a friend or family member to read your personal statement and give you feedback.
