How do I write a personal statement for college?

Remember this personal statement is not the same as you would write if you were applying to University. When applying to college you only need to write no more than 400 words. Your personal statement is so the colleges or further education can talk to you in your interview about why you are applying to them, in particular, what your interests and hobbies are and also what you hope to do in the future. Here you will see some links to help with the process.
