Personal Statement

Your personal statement is a crucial part of your application, within which you should explain your motivation for applying to University. It is important to showcase your drive and passion for the subject area in question, and any skills or experience you may have which will help you be a successful student.

Academic Reference

If you are at a school or college, a teacher or tutor will normally write your reference for you so you don’t need to worry about this section. If you are applying having already finished your studies, you will need to add the name and contact details of a suitable person (normally, a former teacher) who can be contacted by UCAS to provide a written reference. Please note that Loughborough University requires a reference from all applicants.
