Personal Statement Guidelines

The personal statement is an important document that helps us to get acquainted

with you as a person. We advise you to take time to reflect on your values,
motivations, and personal goals before you start writing. Do not feel pressured to
search for remarkable and distinctive experiences to display. More so than the
experiences themselves, we are interested in how they influenced you and the
insights that you gained from them. The essay should be written by you, and must
not be “coached” so that we can hear your original thoughts and words. Please
carefully note the instructions before you begin writing.

<Instructions>

1. Describing the name and company name (occupation) of family in Essay will lead
to disqualification

2. Please write two essays, each slightly different in length, as indicated.

3. We recommend a typed copy, as handwriting may be difficult to read. (In case of
handwriting, write clearly in the square style with a blue or black pen.)

We are delighted to read your personal statements and to get to know you. We would
also like to assure you that your writing will not be made public, and will be used
only for admissions purposes. You have our sincere wishes and encouragement as
you begin your reflections.

Essay Question 1 (600 words or less)

Essay Options: Select from one of the following.
1. Describe a personal, non-academic experience or achievement in which you had to make a
difficult decision, and relate the ways in which this experience has changed you as a person.
2. Provide an example of a leadership situation where you were able to display the
characteristics of humility and cooperation when achieving your goals. What were the
challenges that you faced through the exercise of your leadership, and how did you overcome
them?
3. Choose a real person other than a close relative—a teacher, classmate, friend, etc.—with
whom you have had a direct relationship. Alternatively, describe a character that is either
fictional or historical. Describe in detail how that person or character changed the way you
look at the world around you or at life in general.
4. One of UIC’s greatest strengths is its immense diversity. Describe how your own personal
background would add to UIC’s diversity and why your personal traits would stand out even in
such a highly multi-lingual and multi-cultural institution.
5. Topic of your choice.
Essay Question 2 (300 words or less)
Underwood International College (UIC) is an all-English liberal arts college within a major
Korean university. What makes you a suitable fit for UIC and what have you done to prepare
for a rigorous liberal arts education? How do you plan to achieve your future goals at UIC and
beyond?
