Good evening everyone,
Don't forget about our workshop tomorrow, we are brewing and baking for you all!

Information:
On Tuesday the 28th of March we are organizing a personal statement workshop in KA28 at Katedralskolan in Lund at 15.00.

Except for the delicious afternoon tea we will offer you, the purpose of the workshop is to spread awareness about the application to universities in the UK. We will hold a brief introduction to what a personal statement is (about 30 minutes) and then we will stay to answer any questions you might have.
The idea is then to have a follow-up workshop later on, where you can bring a statement and get our help to improve it.

Please note that if you want sandwiches, pastries and tea you are expected to stay for at least the presentation.
Everyone is welcome, even if you are unsure whether you will apply to the UK or somewhere else.

Kind Regards,
Education UK (Nora, Sofia, Sherina, Camille and Elsa - DP15)
