Question
Hi--i'm looking for help on the statement of purpose section of PhD in English applications--do you know of any sites where i could see examples or get a few tips on this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated--Marcelle
Hi,Marcelle. I actually have a free booklet available on the subject. It is called How to Get Accepted to Grad School - A Take-Charge Approach. About half of the booklet focuses on the statement of purpose, or Personal Statement. You can order it (again, it is completely free) at:

If you still need some help after reviewing, please let me know. Good luck.
