2022美國讀本科留學(xué)申請書完整版
Dear _,
I first realised I wanted to study Psychology when studying Drama, because in order to portray characters I had to understand their mind and develop their personality. I found the differences in characters were so vast that it made me want to understand these variations. Since beginning the course in College I have been truly captivated by all areas of psychological theory and research, and am eager to contribute to the understanding we have about the behaviour of human and non-human animals. In particular, I am fascinated by the fundamental debates in Psychology, for example the nature nurture debate. A Forensic and Investigative Psychology conference I attended, presented by Professor David Canter, caught my attention as I found it intriguing that people can behave in such a way that will offend others and often feel little or no remorse. After reading his book, "Mapping Murder", my interest in abnormality and psychopathology rapidly increased, as his book and conference allowed me to understand the psychology behind this type of behaviour, amplifying my interest in the subject. I enjoy reading about different studies that have been conducted in the past, which I can analyse and evaluate to obtain a more advanced understanding of behaviours exhibited.
As a peer mentor, my job was to attend to the needs of younger or more vulnerable students and to offer them full support. This job requires patience and compassion, along with willingness to help and motivate others. I have received certificates and awards for good behaviour, attendance, punctuality and performing arts, demonstrating my enthusiasm in everything I do. My work experience in the retail industry has given me the chance to develop critical skills which are essential such as; good communication with others, a strong determination to achieve my best and dedication to all work I undertake. As an A2 Psychology student, I received the Student of the Month award for my outstanding enthusiasm, effort and achievement. Drama & Theatre Studies has given me an alternative perception of human behaviour, the intensity of emotions and the variations inherent in that. Music Technology has helped me develop my analytical and concentration skills. I am also a member of the Student Council, where I represent my fellow students and have a great responsibility to ensure that their views are heard and acted upon.
I enjoy reading a range of books from novels to biographies as well as books to support my academic studies. Currently I am reading "The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins to support my understanding of Evolutionary Psychology. I find it fascinating that natural and sexual selection can provide ultimate explanations for the behaviour of animals, including humans. I also enjoy sports, such as swimming, cricket, tennis and hockey, resulting in my competitive nature and desire to succeed. I have had a variety of part time jobs in which I have had to work with the public and satisfy their needs whilst working under pressure to complete assorted tasks. Although I am looking forward to going to university, I have decided to take a gap year and hopefully attend Camp America, where I would work with young people as a Counsellor, ensuring their health and safety, and keeping them entertained. My role will depend on my ability to have strong authority but also an approachable manner at all times and I am confident I can carry out the role with the utmost professionalism. I am eager to study Psychology in as much depth as possible, and I intend to practise a career in the fields I am particularly interested in - Clinical and Pathological Psychology. I believe that I will make an outstanding undergraduate who will appreciate having the opportunity to study and expand my knowledge in a reputable learning environment.
Yours sincerely,
ziwenku
美國留學(xué)獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金條件
條件一、標(biāo)準(zhǔn)考試成績
美國大學(xué)把申請人“標(biāo)準(zhǔn)考試”的成績作為評定獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金的重要依據(jù)。其中TOEFL考試是一種語言能力的考試，它僅作為一個(gè)基本要求，即要求應(yīng)達(dá)到所申請的美國學(xué)校TOEFL的最低分?jǐn)?shù)線，但對申請獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金資助沒有實(shí)際上的幫助。GRE、GMAT屬于能力測試，其分?jǐn)?shù)反映的是考生學(xué)習(xí)、思維能力的高低，是影響?yīng)剬W(xué)金資助的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)考試。
條件二、學(xué)習(xí)成績
申請人的高中成績或是大學(xué)成績均采用兩種形式來表現(xiàn)，一種是GPA即“平均成績點(diǎn)數(shù)”;另一種是“Rank”，即“畢業(yè)名次”。這兩種形式是美國大多數(shù)學(xué)校衡量申請人學(xué)業(yè)成績的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
條件三、學(xué)歷
申請美國大學(xué)研究生以上級別的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金資助，要比申請本科獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金容易得多。如果申請人在國內(nèi)已經(jīng)獲得學(xué)士學(xué)位或碩士學(xué)位，再申請美國的碩士或博士學(xué)位，會(huì)占有很大的優(yōu)勢。許多申請人往往大學(xué)未畢業(yè)就著手準(zhǔn)備出國申請，以便畢業(yè)后立即到美國繼續(xù)深造。
條件四、所受的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)與榮譽(yù)
學(xué)生所受的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)和榮譽(yù)是學(xué)生能力杰出的具體表現(xiàn)。除了校內(nèi)的一些獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)外，校外的社會(huì)榮譽(yù)、大型學(xué)術(shù)競賽或活動(dòng)的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)、學(xué)術(shù)雜志上發(fā)表的論文，這些都對你申請獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金有幫助。
美國留學(xué)生面試注意事項(xiàng)
1.第一印象很重要
在面試前10分鐘到達(dá)，如果你堵車了請?zhí)崆巴ㄖ愕拿嬖嚬伲t到是一件非常糟糕的事情，如果是遠(yuǎn)程面試當(dāng)然也是同樣道理。另外把你所有的申請材料都帶一份Copy，以防面試官有需要。當(dāng)然比較正式的著裝也是必不可少的。這些是最基本的要求，但是的確非常重要。
2.保持真實(shí)
就像我們在上面提到的，學(xué)校面試的目的是了解你本人，所以沒有什么比保持真實(shí)更重要的了。申請人吸引很重要的一點(diǎn)就是自己不同的背景。所以不論你的背景如何，都可以和面試官暢所欲言，當(dāng)然了，你不應(yīng)該呈現(xiàn)消極的面貌，而是自己最自然的一面。
3.充分準(zhǔn)備
雖然整個(gè)面試過程都是圍繞你的經(jīng)歷和想法來進(jìn)行，但這并不意味著你不需要準(zhǔn)備。良好的表達(dá)與溝通，自己優(yōu)秀的事跡都是需要好好準(zhǔn)備才能呈現(xiàn)出來的。因?yàn)槟惚仨氁獙⒛銖男〉酱蟮闹匾?jīng)歷，你引以為豪的故事，你與眾不同的特點(diǎn)都用較好的語言組織并表達(dá)出來，可別小看這一過程，它對面試的成敗起著至關(guān)重要的作用。同時(shí)你還要準(zhǔn)備的是對學(xué)校的了解和熱情。畢竟學(xué)校也很看中申請人的誠意。
4.練習(xí)
熟能生巧。首先面試練習(xí)的第一步應(yīng)該是熟悉你自己的申請材料。文書等等。但是在熟悉的時(shí)候要多準(zhǔn)備一個(gè)部分：就是思考閱讀這些材料的人可能會(huì)問的問題，并且準(zhǔn)備這些問題的答案。之后請你的老師同學(xué)幫助你做模擬面試，實(shí)際上任何一個(gè)可以給你誠實(shí)反饋的人都可以。可以讓他們問一些經(jīng)典的問題，比如你最自豪的成就，你心中的Leader是誰，為什么選擇這個(gè)時(shí)候來讀書等。
5.問有價(jià)值的問題
面試官總是對自己的學(xué)校和項(xiàng)目有著不一樣的了解，所以抓住面試提問的機(jī)會(huì)吧。一些經(jīng)典的問題比如：你當(dāng)時(shí)為什么選擇這所學(xué)校，你最喜歡的活動(dòng)是什么，你最喜歡的課是什么，都是不錯(cuò)的問題。如果可以更具體的一些就更好了。這些問題不僅可以讓你對項(xiàng)目有更深入的了解，而且也可以表現(xiàn)出你對項(xiàng)目的熱情。
