A Note on Using Artificial Intelligence
AI tools can be helpful for research and refining ideas, but we want to learn about you. If you use AI or chatbots to support your application, please keep the following in mind:
- AI can assist with research, structure, and refining your writing, but your application must reflect your own skills and experience
- Spell‑checking and condensing word counts are appropriate uses of AI
- Do not copy and paste AI‑generated answers; this will not help you stand out positively. We want to hear about your real experience and capability
