The 2026 entry format
From 2026 entry, the UCAS personal statement is three questions answered in one statement. The total limit is 4,000 characters, and UCAS asks for at least 350 characters on each question.
UCAS states the limit in characters rather than lines. Line breaks may count as characters, so a count here can differ slightly from UCAS. Check the current rules on ucas.com before you submit.
