英国是许多学子向往的留学国家,教育老牌,而且拥有顶尖的教育资源和名校。接下来出国留学网小编重点和大家说说英国留学申请需不需要准备申请书?
首先来看看书写的内容。
【Writing about the course】
你为什么申请这一科目?
为什么这个科目让你感兴趣?
为什么你觉得自己适合学习这一科目?你有相关的能力和经验去帮助你成功学习这一科目吗?
你正在或者曾经学习过相关的课程吗?
你曾经参加过有关你的课程并能展示你能力的的活动吗?(例如讲座、竞赛等)
【Skills and achievements】
介绍有关你所申请课程的相关学习或生活能力
你所获得的荣誉或担任过的职位等(例如学生会主席)
【Hobbies and interests】
个人爱好及课外活动
【Work experience】
相关工作经历(尽量与科目有关)
【Mature students/ international students】
介绍你(成年学生/海外留学生)的相关经历
【Future plans】
未来的计划
接着来看看书写的技巧。
第一、你不必直接向管理导师致函,也不必吸引他们的注意力;
第二、不用使用俗语,俚语,或口语。你没有义务装酷;
第三、用英英软件(而不是美英软件)来检查拼写是否有误;
第四、不要大肆赞美你所申请的学校及其专业;
第五、不要使用标题,除非与内文严格相关;
第六、解释你申请该专业和课程的动机;
第七、别显露出你所申请的专业只是你的次优选择。
最后来看看书写的注意事项。
结合自身,列举实例
学会利用鲜活的实例,让读者进入你的情境中,让大学申请部的老师们可以感觉到申请人的想法。多注意从英国留学申请文书中更小的细节上突出特色,结合实例,而不是一味的模仿范文。
依照自己的性格写文书
在阅读无数的文书后,阅卷老师已能分辨什么是诚实与不诚实的作答,可以区分什么是发自内心回答,因而写作时应该让文书有趣,却又不可丧失自我,依照自己的的性格写文书,凸显出自我个性和与众不同。
不要套用模板写作
英国大学的入学体制不同于中国大学,更加注重学生的个性与特质,或者说更注重学生是否具有未来成功的潜力。所以申请者不要一味套用规律的写作模板回答问题,因为这样很容易偏移原来大学文书的主题,而大学审查官也很容易察觉这种写作方式。
认真校对
即使已经拥有了一篇充满个性、与众不同的文书,也一定要做最后一项工作——认真校对。不要犯下愚蠢的错误,大学录取审查官注重细节,因为也许一个拼写错误都会造成无法弥补的损失。总之,认真核查校对,确保文章内无拼写等小错误出现,保证文书完美。
参考范文。
As a child I often accompanied my father to his small coin shop and spent hours watching him work. When I was older, I sometimes set up displays, waited on customers, and even balanced the books. This experience instilled in me the desire to own and manage my own business someday, yet I understand that the business world today is more complex. This complexity requires more education, and with that in mind, I am applying to the Master’s of Business Administration program at Indiana University Bloomington (IUB).
通过一个故事开头,讲述自己为何对business感兴趣。
In addition to my helping out in my father’s business, I have had numerous other work experiences that further enhance my qualifications for this program. My resume enumerates the various positions I have held at Kerasotes Theaters, Chili’s restaurants, and Indiana University’s new Student Recreational Sports Center (SRSC), and what all of these positions have in common is an emphasis on serving the public fectively. Further, as an assistant manager at the Showplace 11 and a staff coordinator at the SRSC, I have gained valuable expertise in managing employees and creating work schedules. Both of these positions have allowed me to develop my sales and people skills, which are extremely important in an increasingly service-driven marketplace.
讲述自己的相关经历。但是感觉在谈及经历时候不够具体,应该说明具体做了什么事情,从中得到什么经验或者教训。
Not all of my work experience has been as a paid employee. Part of my volunteering experience at Middleway House, the local battered women’s shelter, involved extensive work on computers, including word processing, organizing databases and creating spreadsheets. Also, I recently participated in an internship program for academic credit with the Eli Lilly corporation in the personnel division. As a management intern, I was able to watch the workings of a major corporation up close and would like the opportunity to combine my experiences with the theoretical background available in the MBA program at IUB, with its emphasis on computers, marketing and human resources.
志愿者活动同样值得在ps中讲述。
My successful internship is one element of my overall academic success as an undergraduate here at IUB, yet I have also made time for a variety of extracurricular activities, including working for my sorority and competing in intramural basketball. My positive experiences here have resulted in my desire to stay in Bloomington to continue my academic endeavors; furthermore, continuing my education here would allow me to make important business contacts, with the career goal of opening my own computer consulting firm in the Midwest.
