How to end your personal statement

The personal statement is your opportunity to talk about you, and why you want to enrol on a particular course. You’ve got this far – showing your passion for the subject. But how do you end your personal statement in a way that truly does it justice?

Why I knew I wanted to do an apprenticeship

We spoke to Hannah Rashidi, a Chartered Management Degree Apprentice at BT who knew she wanted to do an apprenticeship since secondary school. Here, she talks about how she made the decision, making friends, and her advice to future apprentices.
