If you are a student or alum of Yale College, Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, or a postdoctoral scholar applying to a health profession program this summer (medical, dental, etc.) and would like to have your personal statement reviewed, send it to the Box at Yale: Persona.ygq1qf79g8be36tb@u.box.com. Please plan to send your personal statement when you feel you are close to your final draft. For tips on writing a personal statement please review our blog: “Writing the Personal Statement for Health Professions Applications“
When submitting your document please title your document “Last Name_First Name_ Medical_Personal Statement”. For instance, “Smith_John_Medical_Personal Statement.” If you are applying to an MD/PhD, Dental, or other health professions program, replace “Medical” in your document title with the type of program. For instance, “Smith_John_ MDPhD_Personal Statement.”
Important: please make sure to include your name and email at the top of your personal statement so we are able to return your personal statement with feedback. Personal statements without this information saved into the document may have a delayed return.
Typically, a review will take approximately 5-7 business days.
