Event: Writing for Health Professions 1: Drafting

Prospective summer 2021 applicants to health professions programs and others are invited to the first in a series of spring writing workshops focused on the application process. We'll discuss writing for the Barnard Committee application as well as personal statements and other kinds of essays. The workshop is intended to be an interactive event (come prepared to do some writing!) and to help you set a foundation for work that will be developed throughout the spring semester.

This event will take place February 9 at 6pm eastern. Register via Handshake. 

Personal Statement Workshop 2/19/20

All prospective applicants to health professions programs are welcome to attend Writing for Health Professions 2: Revision on Wednesday, February 19, 6:00 PM. In this interactive workshop, the second event in our Spring Writing Series, we’ll consider what happens once you’ve completed a draft of your personal statement. Learn techniques for evaluating and revising your statement, and consider how your statement will function within your application as a whole. Attendees should plan to bring a hard copy of their personal statement, whether a first draft or a draft that has undergone some revision already.

Register here!
