Finding any examples of personal statements, addenda or scholarship applications were like gold to me during this process so I’ll try and pay it forward. Anyone who knows me will be able to fully tell so…uh, hi.
Personal Statement: Two examples, the standard one and Berkeley’s four page one.- Résumé: self-explanatory.

• Addenda:
• I wrote a “resume gap” addendum bc I have about a 7 month gap in employment due to family illness.
• Why Berkeley: well, they let me in so I must have been convincing
• Optional Essays: Don’t think they really helped overcome my stats but oh well, I had fun.
• University of Washington Gates App Cover Letter and Essay: couldn’t find an example anywhere online. I didn’t get the scholarship, so take my examples as maybe what not to do (or not, who knows!)
