Washington State Personal Statement

[Kymmy16w]

For those of you who applied to Washington State, did you write an entirely new personal statement for the Washington supp app or did you just paste in the same one from VMCAS?

I couldn't find a word limit or a description of what they expect.

I don't think WSU has a Supp App. They have an entirely separate application that you can choose to file instead of VMCAS, but not in addition to VMCAS. I filled out the VMCAS and marked WSU as one of the schools to send to, but if I had chosen to use the separate application I would probably use the same personal statement, if it asks for just a personal statement (no direction).

Oh I feel like an idiot. Reading comprehension > me. I'll just do it through VMCAS since that's easiest.

I filled out the WSU application because I think you still have to pay the WSU application fee regardless and then the VMCAS fee on top, so I saved myself some money. And yes, I used the same PS.
