A statement of purpose document plays an integral role in the application process of a study abroad program as it provides the admission board with the key information about the candidate and why they want to study a particular course at their institution. British Council is proud to conduct a unique session for aspiring students on writing an impactful Statement of Purpose (SOP) for university applications.
Conducted by our expert from the UK, this online interactive session, will show students what needs to be included in a statement of purpose and what universities are looking for when they read the applications.
