英國留學申請書范文
Dear Sir:
I am writing to you in the hope of obtaining the scholarship in history to support my study and some research work.
I am a graduate student in the Department of History in the Northeast University for Nationalities. In addition to study and research work, I also write books. Recently I have finished a book on the history of the Oroqen nationality in China, which is to be published by the World Book Publishing House in the coming year. I would like to focus on that field for my advanced studies.
Enclosed please find three letters of recommendation and my resume. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your reply.
Respectfully yours,
Li Ming
英國留學申請書寫作技巧
1、在準備申請文書之前,一定要先擬一份草稿。
2、學校需要充分的時間審核學生的信息及文案,學生一定要確定好院校的申請截止日期,盡可能提前準備并提交申請,
3、通常情況下,學生并不需要在工作經(jīng)歷及課外活動經(jīng)驗方面下太大功夫。在申請文書寫作中,關于工作經(jīng)歷的方面,學生要表達出的應該是個人能力及領導力和創(chuàng)新能力的優(yōu)勢。
正如劍橋大學山姆博士(Sam Lucy)提到的:“我們學校并不特別看重學生的工作經(jīng)驗,我們更加關注的是與你所學學科相關的任何知識及經(jīng)歷。我們看重的是學生的個人能力及潛力。因此,如果學生能向我們展示他具有某一方面的專長及特別優(yōu)勢,我們是非常歡迎的。”
牛津大學招生處負責人卡翠娜(CaitrionaWoolhouse)也提出了同樣的觀點,“當學生要申請頂尖大學的時候,尤其是類似于牛津大學這類的名校,我們希望學生能表現(xiàn)出的是至少75%至80%的優(yōu)勢都體現(xiàn)在學術知識方面,另外20%至25%的優(yōu)勢是在于課外活動的經(jīng)驗方面。課外活動,包括工作經(jīng)歷,也必須是與面試者所申請所讀專業(yè)相關的。”
4、申請文書切忌過分夸大個人能力及成績。
5、申請文書論證及檢查的重要性
學生必須想清楚申請院校及專業(yè)的目的,并在文書中表達出對所學專業(yè)的優(yōu)點及能力,必須讓學校清楚的認識到學生對所申請專業(yè)的熱情及潛力。
UCAS系統(tǒng)負責人法圖瑪(FatumaMahad)也強調(diào)了這一重要性。“讓你的朋友同學及家長閱讀你的文書,他們也許可以為你提供合適的建議及看法。學生也可以試著將文書內(nèi)容朗讀出來,這樣有助于讓學生發(fā)現(xiàn)文書中的語言及表達錯誤。”
最后一點關鍵性的建議是,學生一定要保持誠信的態(tài)度,切忌抄襲他人的文書內(nèi)容,抄襲檢查系統(tǒng)將會很智能的檢查到任何作弊及抄襲行為。另外,學生在文書寫作中,一定要明確觀點及論據(jù),要展示出申請者為何具備成功完成學業(yè)的能力,而并不僅僅是陳述出學生有多么渴望申請所學的課程,能力是非常重要的一點。
申請文書是學生申請大學至關重要的一環(huán),這是展現(xiàn)個人能力及學識的最重要的途徑及機會。學生必須要認真對待。
英國留學申請書注意事項
1、請依照學校要求字數(shù)撰寫
每所學校都會有不同字數(shù)要求,有些要求在1000字內(nèi)(例如倫敦政治經(jīng)濟學院LSE) 或是600字內(nèi)(KCL),這些要求如果沒有做到,很容易就會被學校刷下了!
2、請依照學校要求內(nèi)容撰寫
大部份學校要求都是需要寫申請此專業(yè)的動機,為何決定申請此學位,專業(yè)與你學業(yè)背景還有工作有和相關,未來的就業(yè)計劃。
另外,值得注意的是,英國留學文書申請比較偏向?qū)W生將學業(yè)背景還有經(jīng)驗與專業(yè)做個連接。
也就是說,一定要圍繞在此專業(yè)相關的資訊,如果添加不相干的容易被刷下來。
實際例子:
LSE網(wǎng)頁上面清清楚楚就寫了他門不會錄用的PS內(nèi)容(poor personal statement):
“I was the captain of the school football team and excelled in most other sports. I have also worked part-time in a sports store to earn money for university.”
此句子并沒有展現(xiàn)沒有你對此專業(yè)以及對學習上進入大學后有任何幫助。
因此,應該要這樣修改,由此例句來對照。
“I was the captain of the school football team, and this has taught me the importance of working together as a team, and allowed me to prioritise my time between my studies and football practice. I feel that this has provided me with the experience to successfully balance my academic and social life, and I plan to continue this balance whilst at university."
這就有展現(xiàn)出此當足球長的經(jīng)驗對你在大學學習有何幫助,你學到的東西是何物?
以下例句皆為必須避免的(轉(zhuǎn)自LSE官網(wǎng))
"I have always dreamed of coming to LSE since I was young. It has been a dream of mine to study at this institution, which is well renowned for its social science courses.”
(無實際內(nèi)容以及個人啟發(fā),不受青睞。)
“I am currently studying History, English and Business and Management at Higher level and Italian, Maths and Chemistry at Standard level in the International Baccalaureate, and feel that these subjects are providing me with a solid background for university study.”
(這些你學過的科目不用在重復,因為審稿人員也可以看你的transcript 得知你所學習過的科系以及分數(shù),這些內(nèi)容只是浪費空間)
“I want to study History because I want to be a world class Historian, and feel that this degree will help me. I am especially interested in Ancient History, particularly the history concerning the Roman Empire. I am fascinated by the way in which the empire was run, and the events that led to its downfall.”
(這個是重點了! 因為LSE 沒有Ancient history 的課程,這樣寫就代表你連看課程設置都沒有,當然不會上)
“It is my dream to become an alumni of the School, and I am sure that as I am the top student of my class, you will offer me a place."
(太過傲慢,需要積極正面說說自己的好且謙虛,千萬不要自以為是)
