Hi guys,

Anyone know how I should organize the personal statement pdf for the UofA? I know they want a PDF but there is no other specifications. I have only done applications where I insert my personal statement into a text box, so I am unsure if there are any specific guidelines I should follow, or just make sure its readable and reasonable.

thanks everyone!

Besides the word limit there are no specific guidelines, just make sure it looks readable and professional. I recommend using a typical 12pt font such as Times New Roman or Arial. I submitted mine single-spaced. As for title I just put "UofA Law Personal Statement" at the top, although I don't think you're required to have a title.

Also remember to separate your statement into paragraphs. Don't submit a 1000 word chunk of text.
