美国硕博留学课程主要适合基础扎实对留学感兴趣的学生,着重培养学员的语言能力,导师全程针对性教学,根据每位学员自身的情况来*属于自己的课程,让学员离自己梦想更近一步。
Standardized Test
申请美国研究生项目,TOEFL或IELTS是针对国际
学生的语言能力测试,GRE或者GMAT是美国研
Angela: “Testing is important, but it's not always the most important. Prepare as best as you can, do the best you can, but don't spend the majority of your time worrying about them. It's more important to focus on academics, getting involved in activities, and crafting strong, personal essays.”
Academic Performance
学习成绩GPA是申请中最重要的因素
之一,名校一般要求学生在校成绩达
到GPA 3.5以上。
Mike Hammer: “As important as test scores are, grades are even more important. Test scores can reveal a student's potential. Grades reflect a student's level of discipline and the extent to which she uses her potential on a daily basis.”
研究经历/课外活动
Extracurricular Activity
对于硕博申请来说,高质量的实习、*、研究经历等几乎可以说是必不
可少的。一般来说,申请商学院专业的学生*有实习;理工类专业的学生*
有科研经历;申请博士*能够有文章的发表。
Rhonda: “Quality is more important than quantity: doing 2-3 internships or activities that you dedicate more time to, are passionate about, and that you share with others is much more important than 8, or 10, or 12 of them that you are not very engaged in.”
Essay
文书是研究生申请中最重要的衡量标准
之一。在申请过程中,招生官通过文书
来了解学生的学术背景、能力、性格、
对未来的规划等等。
Patricia: “Read as much as you can, it will greatly improve your ability to create and share your own personal statement. If you want to write an excellent essay, the first thing you should be focusing on is reading. In addition, proofread is also really important. ”
Recommendation letter
大多数的学校要求申请人提供三封推荐
信,可以是来自任课的教授、辅导员、
论文导师、指导学生做科研的导师、系
主任、学院院长,实习中的上司等。
Landis: “Seek professors or supervisors who know your intellect and your work ethic. Give your professor plenty of advanced notice when requesting a letter of recommendation. This not only shows good planning on your part, it also leads to a stronger, more thoughtful letter.”
Interview
不是所有的专业提供面试机会,但是对于提供面试的学校而言, 申请者的面试表现在最后的录取决定中起至关重要的作用。 面试的目的是帮助招生官核对申请人材料的准确性,同时进一步了解申请材料中没有的内容 面试对于知名院校和项目的申请来说是成败的重要因素。 面试过程中,学生应该自信,积极地去和面试官交流,而且要着装得体,与面试官有眼神的交流。 建议面试结束后给面试官发一封感谢邮件。
Kevin: “There are two ways to answer a question: the “what and why” method and the “C.A.R” method. The quality of a response depends on being able to identify which method to use to answer the question.”
