vision, values statements, and the cultural statement shown below.
(format: double spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, PDF/Word format).
Additional Guidelines to the applicant :
Each candidates statement of purpose is unique and, as such, there is no fixed content. However, in
general terms, the statement of purpose is designed for CiAM Admissions to get to know you and to
confirm that you are a good fit for the program and vice versa. (i.e. that you understand the program and
that its curriculum is a good match for your goals). As such, use your statement of purpose is an
opportunity not only to demonstrate your ability to create a well-written, viable, and cohesive narrative,
but also to show us how you have succeeded and/ or managed to overcome challenges in your life and to
connect the dots between the program and your goals by explaining in detail HOW you believe that the
program can help you to reach those goals.
To that end, please be sure that your statement of purpose helps CiAM Admissions to understand your
motivation in applying to the program, i.e. what you hope to achieve therefrom. Examples might include
some depth related to: academic growth, personal growth, professional development, skill enhancement,
community service, leadership, etc.
Additionallyand perhaps most importantlythe statement of purpose should clearly, and in some
detail, explain HOW you believe that the programs content will aid in your goals, and how you feel this
will help you contribute to the community. Examples might include: expanding on existing
skills/knowledge, developing new skills/knowledge, contextualizing existing experience with new modes
of thinking, broadening scope, etc. This type of statement can only be crafted in relation to the programs
current content, and so please take time to review the Course Descriptions section of the programs
Curriculum page on the website and ensure that your answers directly relate to the courses and their
content.
One of the ways to test that your statement of purpose contains the minimum requisite elements is to ask
yourself: Does it answer all of the following questions (directly below)? And, does it do so with a solid
level of articulation, depth, and quality?
x How will the program help you to achieve your educational goals?
x How will the program help you to achieve your career goals?
x How will the programs curriculum help to achieve these goals?
x How will the program help you in your goals to contribute to the community?
x What do you hope to gain from the MBA program?
