UCAS Training at PTE Berakas




On Thursday, 13th of March, counsellors from HEU were invited to attend a UCAS briefing on writing Personal Statements and References from a representative of UCAS.

The information that we received was quite useful as the representative gave reminders and tips on what needs to be remembered by the students. Basically it's important for students to establish and identify their KEY SKILLS which are RELEVANT TO THE COURSE and then include WHAT HAVE YOU DONE to illustrate that you have this skill.

She also mentioned that it's worth checking out www.Unistats.com to have a better idea of the University that students are thinking of applying to and what are the chances of being accepted.

HEU would like to extend our gratitude and appreciation to the Careers Unit at PTE Berakas for inviting us to the event. It was a great chance to meet and network with other counsellors and Higher Education Consultants.
