美国留学申请人条件【精选20篇】

尊敬的_领导：

您好!我叫__，是一名来自山西的高三学生。很感激您能在百忙之中来阅读我的自荐信。

小的时候就听大人们谈起过“_”这个被当时的我赋予了很丰富的联想的名字。年龄还小的我只是觉得这个名字给人一种很威风、大气的感觉，渴望着有朝一日也能成为它的一分子。随着年龄的增长，我对_有了更多的认识：不同于其他的学校，_始终保持一种严谨治学的态度;无论何时，_都能为学子提供最清静、最不受丝毫干扰的学习环境。_坐落于素有“人间天堂”美誉的杭州，与北京上海等地的高校相比，有着不相伯仲乃至更高一筹的教学水平，却比他们少一份喧嚣，多一份宁静。

看到“_”的_校训时，心底的触动让我更加坚定了“我要成为_人”的决心。_坚持着思想教育和专业知识培养兼顾、理论与实践相结合的理念，注重培养学生的求知创新精神。所以，成为一个_人，这将会成为我永远无悔并且引以自豪的决定。

当然，选择_并不仅仅是由于_无可比拟的优越性，还有一个原因便是自身的性格因素。我是一个活泼开朗、阳光率直的女孩，对于新鲜的事物总是充满了好奇，喜欢在各种各样的挑战中不断超越自己。我爱音乐从黑白琴键下淙淙流出的写意，也爱篮球场上行云流水的酣畅淋漓。所以在高中时，我担任班中的文艺委员、学校的音乐社社长以及女子篮球队队长。虽然我是女生，但我对电脑也有着非同寻常的喜爱，在初中毕业后的暑假，我特意去了电脑学校学习了VisualBasic编程语言。在很小的时候，我就能掌握比同龄人多很多的字词。凭借着语言天赋，我又在假期中学习了大学韩语教材的第一册。对我来说学习永远是件快乐的事，因为我总能在其中体味到那种不断充实自己、超越自己的满足感。

我是一个很爱玩也很会玩的女孩。但无论在玩的时候多么无拘无束，一到了学习时，会马上静下心来，心无旁骛地投入到学习中，从小学到高中，一直成绩优异，从不偏科。而在所有的学科中，我最倾心的是数学。我喜欢在数字、符号、字幕之间寻找那些微小的规律;喜欢在各种各样的图形中搜寻出各个部分的关系;我喜欢遇到难题时的棋逢对手之感;喜欢攻克难题后“百万军中取上将首级”的豪迈之感。虽然从未学习过奥数，但我仍在初中时获得了“希望杯”数学邀请赛的三等奖，以及高中时全国数学联赛的二等奖。

我喜欢钻研问题时那种专注、纯净的感觉。我相信，只有_才是能让求知之鹰自由翱翔的朗朗晴空。

同时，我也对自己的能力充满信心。我曾多次在班级、学校的活动中担任主持人;还曾在假期中做过家教，定期地组织社团活动等。踏踏实实地在一次又一次的实践活动中不断提升自己的能力。

当然，想要成为一名_人，思想品德是更重要的一方面。妈妈从小就教导我：无论怎样，首先要学会做一个纯粹的人。学习生活中，我会尽自己的力量热情地帮助周围的同学，认真负责地为集体做好本职工作，积极地在歌咏比赛、运动会上为班争光;在家时，我会在学习之余帮助妈妈洗衣做饭，做各种各样的家务;假期里，我还会组织同学一起去福利院开展志愿活动……“求实创新”是我的座右铭。并将伴随我一生。

所以我热切地盼望这有朝一日胸前能佩戴起那枚意蕴深厚的_校徽，抱着书本漫步在_优美的校园内，庄严地对自己说“我是_人”!

希望您能通过我的申请。如果我的申请未被通过，我会认真地找出自己的不足并虚心改正，努力在明年的高考中考出理想的成绩，步入_的校园。

尊敬的_大学老师领导：

您好!我是___，是入党积极分子，__省三好学生，在日常的学习和生活中我处处以身作则，以榜样的力量感染和带动我的同学。我在学习上勤奋刻苦，始终成绩优异，我就读的学校是一所拥有近四千名学生的省级示范校，每学期我校都要进行一次10所省级示范性高中的联合考试，每个年级的考生约一万三千多人在这类地区联考中，我的成绩始终名列前茅。20__年上学期我考取了地区联考第一名，本校年级第一名，班级第一名。20__年下学期地区第一名，本校年级第一名，班级第一名，20__年上学期地区第9名，英语单科成绩第一;本校第2名，班级第一名。20__年下学期地区第一名，本校年级第一名，班级第一名。20__年高三的第一次考试我考取第一名。我从初中起就多次参加全国中学生奥林匹克各学科竞赛，并于20__年获全国中学生奥林匹竞赛一等奖，20__年获全国中学生奥林匹竞赛英语、数学、化学竞赛一等奖、物理竞赛二等奖。读高中后20__年我获取全国中学生英语能力竞赛一等奖，全国中学生数学竞赛希望杯三等奖。20__年获全国中学生生物、数学竞赛决赛资格。各学科竞赛拓宽了我的学习思路，检验了我的学习效果，也争强了我的自信心。

20__年8月我升入高中，12月份我校有一名不幸身患尿毒症的同学叫___，面对着一个年轻的生命在顽强的与死神抗争。我决定和我的同学一起发起一次奉献爱心的捐赠活动，以集体的力量挽救这个年轻的生命。我写了倡议书，在学校号召老师和同学们为___同学捐款，还到社会上进行宣传，得到老师、同学和社会各界人士的帮助，共捐款6万余元。为邱纯亮同学做换肾手术奉献了我们的一份爱心。我们的爱心捐赠活动在社会上引起了强烈的反响。我市电视台在晚间最近新闻栏目专门做了报道。挽救这个濒临枯萎的生命的过程，震撼了我的心灵。因为我有能力通过自己的努力，延续一个年轻的生命，同时，爱心捐赠活动也验证了我的组织能力，凝聚力和感召力，更是对我自身综合素质的一次检验。在后来的班级工作和组织其他活动的时候我的自信心更强了。

当迈入了_大学的校门，也就步入了我生命中的最重要、最精彩的阶段。我会珍惜在校园中渡过的分分秒秒，在这大师云集、神圣的学术殿堂、在这群贤毕至的高等学府，如饥似渴的吸纳最新的知识和信息，发扬林业学子的优良传统，刻苦学习、精益求精，通过脚踏实地的努力使自己成为本专业的优秀学生，同时努力探索和验证与本学科、本专业相关的科学知识，以唯物和科学的态度勤奋地学习、深刻地思索、不懈地寻求本学科领域的最新知识，使自己成为本学科领域的有发展潜力和有培养价值的学生，成为北京林大的骄傲。

尊敬的_大学老师：

您好!首先感谢您在百忙之中耐心阅读我的留学申请书。我是一名来自江滨小城安庆的学生，就读于安庆市第一中学。我的名字叫___。不知是否是名字的缘故，我从小就与水结下了不解之缘。从扬子江畔到大海之滨，我带着梦想一步步奔流前进。

一、一位女生

我是一个善于思考、爱好广泛、积极进取的女孩，不论是长长的成绩单的前列，还是各类社会活动中，总能发现我的身影。我学习成绩优异，语文、历史等学科尤为突出，在各种联考、学期测试中多次获得分。同时，从小担任学习委员、语文课代表的经历帮我练就了良好的口才，扎实的语言功底和自信大方的风度。

升入高中以后，我的综合素质尤其是文学才能得到了更好的体现。我担任着安庆一中向未来文学社社长，在这片热土上播洒着青春的梦想。这期间，我组织并参与多期校刊的编辑和创作，举办文学讲座，组织采风活动，《中国校园文学》、《辽宁青年》、《中学生优秀作文》……各种报刊上都留下了我年轻而有朝气的文字。在校园广播站中，我依靠较强的编采读写能力和亲切的嗓音成为人气颇高的主播，带大家欣赏窗外的风景。

此外，我还通过选拔，成为学校合唱队的一员，加入了GLOBE气象观测小组。更为光荣的是，我被选为第一批入党积极分子，在业余党校努力学习……在这一系列的学习和工作中，我提升了自身的素养，也收获了不少荣誉。20_、20_年连续两届获得“中国少年作家杯”全国征文大赛一等奖;20__年获第七届“新作文杯”全国中小学生放胆作文大赛高中组一等奖;20_年校“新新文学”征文比赛一等奖，并被评为校优秀团员、三好学生。

二、一次经历

20_年9月16日是_纪念日。作为文学社社长，我以此为主题带头撰写了一批稿件。9月15日，我突然接到了校领导的电话，表示欣赏我的文章，并邀请我作为一名学生代表在纪念大会上发言，但必须新拟讲稿。进入高三以后学业繁重，当时我也身患感冒，噪音大打折扣，是不是婉拒这次邀请呢?经过了片刻的犹豫之后，我决定给自己一个挑战的机会。凭着担任校史讲解员所积累的知识，通过查阅相关史料，我很快写出了讲稿《永为国之栋》。

16日早晨，在全校师生、各届校友和众多市民的注视下，我从容地走上主席台，深吸一口气，朗声说道：“亲爱的老师、同学们，今天，当我们翻开安庆一中厚重的史稿，我们不会忘记这样一个日子……”当我结束发言、鞠躬致谢时，台下爆发出的热烈掌声告诉我;我做到了!校长赞许地拍了拍我的头，同学们纷纷向我表示祝贺——大家都没有发现我的噪音的小秘密。当日，我的讲稿被选登在《安庆日报》专版上，很多素不相识的师生见到我都说：“你是在大会上发言的※※吧!讲得真好!”

虽然这次经历只是我多彩的高中生活中的一个小小的片段，虽然这不是我最光鲜耀眼的荣誉，但它却最让我引以为傲;因为我明白了：相信自己，我可以做得更好!

三、一个梦想

想成为一名优秀新闻工作者的我，如今站在高三这个人生的十字路口，但步伐却一如从前，自信坚定。_大学就是我始终坚持的方向。她以她“自强不息、止于至善”的精神，深厚的文化底蕴及一流的教学水平深深地吸引着年轻的我。

20_年夏天，我同父母特地来到祖国的东南明珠_，提前感受了_那温暖亲切的怀抱。漫步于优雅大方的校园，看着来来往往的哥哥姐姐阳光的脸庞，品尝着_食堂可口的沙茶面，我真切地感受到：就是_!这就是我追逐梦想的舞台!

尊敬的老师，您能给我一个再次在这个美丽校园听涛声、品美食的机会吗?

__大学的各位领导、导师们：

您们好!

首先感谢你们能在百忙之中审阅我的个人留学申请书。

我叫___，是来自__某中学的一名高三的理科生，即将面临高考，我期望透过贵校来实现我在__大学学习的梦想。一向以来，__大学对我都有很大的吸引力，有着悠久的历史，深厚的文化底蕴，丰富的教学资源，良好的学术氛围，强烈的时代气息，__大学历经沧桑，饱经风雨，为祖国培养了许多优秀人才，取得了丰硕的科研成果，并成为我国培养高层次专门人才和发展科学技术的一个重要基地。个性是，她是我国高校中最早开始试点实行自主招生的高校之一，她爱惜人才、有职责感，不拘一格选人才。这一点很吸引我。我十分渴望能在20__年7月拿到贵校的录取通知书，成为贵校的一名学生，成为一名对社会、对祖国有用的人才。

进入高中以来，我不断为实现这一理想而努力学习文化知识，勤学善思。英语、理化是我的强势科目，英语成绩个性优异。我参加了今年的全国中学生英语创新大赛，并有幸进入复赛，虽然由于种.种原因和最后的大奖擦肩而过，但参加竞赛的这种过程使我的潜力得到了很大的提升。

除了学习成绩优秀以外，我还有多方面的特长，我参加了校园的乐队，业余时间我喜欢拉二胡，学习二胡，不仅仅丰富了我的课余生活，而且升华了我对音乐的见解，在二胡的世界中，有奔腾豪放的《赛马》，有坚定有力，追溯光明的《光明行》，也有悲愤哀怨的《江河水》，我用心参与文体活动。初中时博兴县的才艺表演大赛中获得优秀节目奖。

我不仅仅爱好计算机，在业余时间，我参加了教育部组织的计算机等级考试并取得了一级B证，而且经常用心参与体育锻炼，强健体魄，增强毅力。除此之外，我热情、开朗，乐于助人，阳光、向上，所以高中以来，我年年被评为为"三好学生"。

但是，这些成绩只能代表我的过去，梦在心中，路在脚下，站在人生的十字路口，我选取了__大学，我期望__大学能敞开怀抱，给我带给一个大发展的平台，期望各位领导和老师能理解我的申请，衷心的感谢!

To live a meaningful life everyday; to continually pursue my predetermined worthwhile goals. -My view of life.

Could I put myself in the life-threatening working environment? Could I sacrifice my life for the benefits of others? Some people may laugh at my crazy question. To me, that is a serious question I have come a long way to find my answer. “I am not sure whether it is worth to answer”; “What is the true meaning of that question?”

When I was a young child, I watched a soap opera that was about court. I was deeply impressed by the judge’s calmness and the lawyer’s eloquence and resource that were showed in this opera. From then on, I hoped to study law some day. Fortunately, I performed well in entrance examination and got enrolled into __ University. Then I chose law as my major without hesitation. At university, I studied hard and got GPA 3.4. What’s more, I broadly read all kinds of books, including philosophy, history etc. My teachers’ instruction strengthened my understanding of law and makes me understand the significance of law to a country. From my studies, I had a lot of fun and got more interested in law. Moreover, I actively participated in practice in holidays from common company to law firm and tried to apply the theory I had learned into practice.

This summer, I had my internship in counselor department in __ Group Co Ltd which was involved in a business contract dispute, which was submitted to China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission for arbitration. As a representative of the requested applicant, I took part in the evidence collection in the early arbitration stage and clearly explained why the 5% balance of goods was not paid on time. After knowing the whole case, I visited my teacher, an Arbitration Law professor, and listened to her opinions. Realizing the counterpart didn’t completely implement their contract duty, I gave reasons as follows: First, the counterpart company didn’t mention bearing issue, which caused that the delivered machines couldn’t be put into the plant because of the disqualification of workshop. Thus overhaul was necessary, which delayed production and resulted loss. Based on these reasons, the counterpart didn’t completely carry out its duty, so our party did not pay the balance on time. During this time, I found out the evidence and pictures that attested counterpart did not give reasonable suggestion and service, and made a statement in the court. Finally, the arbitration turned out that counterpart compensated our loss, in which the arbiters invoked the reasons that I stated. They had a panel made up of 3 lawyers and 5 company representatives as agents while we just had 3 persons—two lawyers and me. Under such condition, I was able to cooperate with them and clearly stated my opinions without any nervousness, which got their respect. This matter greatly inspired my enthusiasm on study.

In addition, I took part in the contact draft in several companies. In the process, when I met a lot of problems, I often turned to my teachers for help, which made good impression on them. As I cherished each practice, I studied my specialty and English hard. With effective study method and diligence, I did well both in English and law, which helped me a lot to get scholarship every year. On the other hand, my practice inspired me to study. In practice, I exercised my legal knowledge. I also realize the big gap between theory and its application—sometimes I have master the rules but I didn’t know how to use it in actual case. My practice experiences have not only strengthened what I learned but have supplied new knowledge for me, which is good for my future study and career.

In my study and practice, I admired outstanding lawyers’ eloquence and jumping thinking more and more. However, in China, most of lawyers come from theory study and those who can perform well in practice are insufficient. Moreover, after the China’s entrance to WTO, there are a lot of problems with Chinese law. I think, my internship experience is not enough. In practice, I could combine substantive law with procedural law to analyze case, but I still feel my theoretical foundation is not solid enough. What’s more, comparably speaking, the chances that I have to initiatively study and practice are not a lot. Thereby, I am eager to study further abroad to know more about foreign law, thoughts and lawyer career so that I am able to stand out in fierce competition.

尊敬的_招生组的老师：

您好!

我是来自河南省__中学的__，很高兴能向您呈上我的留学申请书，也希望借此机会我可以脱颖而出，为顺利进入_大学奠定坚实的基础。

在首都这座梦想之城，可谓高校林立，但是只有贵校深深地吸引了我的目光。每年，我们高中都会有人考入贵校，他们被誉为“天子骄子”。当录取金榜贴到校园里，看着他们脸上洋溢的笑容，我的心里也如波涛汹涌，再也那耐不住了。我暗暗下定决心，有朝一日我也要以自己的实力筑梦于人大校园，成为她的一分子。

可说归说，要想成功，唯有刻苦努力，勤奋学习。

在学习上，我对自己要求十分严格，充分发扬不怕吃苦的精神去面对学习中的一切困难和挫折。我知道学习就是一个苦难的过程，唯有坚持不懈，才能实现凤凰涅盘的重生，才能抵达成功的彼岸。因此，在课堂上，我紧紧跟随老师的思路，认真听讲，细心做好笔记，每一个知识点都不会错过。课下，我珍惜时间，努力复习，积极预习，有的放矢地掌控好自己的学习节奏。我喜欢思考问题，喜欢探究问题的本源，然后举一反三，化整为零。由于我的勤奋、刻苦，我获得了优异的成绩，每次考试都在全校前列，受到了老师和同学们的肯定，多次被评为优秀班干部、优秀学生、学习标兵等。

在获得优异成绩的同时，我还抽时间，挤时间发展自己多方面的兴趣。我喜欢打乒乓球、羽毛球、篮球，沉浸于体育锻炼的激情与豪迈中，在紧张与刺激间收获了强健的体魄。但比起体育锻炼，我更钟情于国学文化。

我喜欢国学的博大精深，喜欢国学的厚重神奇。课余，我已经阅读了多部国学经典，比如《孟子》《论语》《史记》《资治通鉴》《汉书》等，在文字与故事里感受到了国学的无限魅力。在我看来，国学不仅仅是传统文化，更是中华民族核心的价值理念和追求，是数千年来中国人思维方式行为方式生活方式生产方式的高度总结，是中华母亲的乳汁，是中华儿女的血脉、精神和灵魂，是中国人信仰的天空和大地。

出于对国学的热爱，我从小就立志要投身于祖国宝贵文化的学习、挖掘、弘扬中，用自己的所学，为国家的文化发展和民族的文化复兴，贡献自己的微薄之力。

而我之所以在众多的_高校中钟情于贵校，就是因为贵校深厚的文化底蕴吸引了我。贵校是一所以人文社会科学为主的综合性研究型高校。自建校以来，贵校始终不忘“立学为民、治学报国”的办学宗旨，以“实事求是”为校训，逐渐形成了完备的教育体系，尤其注重发挥人文社会科学认识世界、传承文明、创新理论、咨政育人、服务社会的作用，半个多世纪以来，已为国家输送了一大批高素质的人才，其中范文澜、冯其庸、艾青、王小波等校友可谓赫赫有名，为国家的文化建设做出了巨大的贡献。

我敬仰贵校国学院，它是新中国第一家以国学为教育研究目的且本硕连读的教育科研机构。学院学术力量雄厚，已经制定了完整系统的国学教学方案，建立了以经典研读为中心的课程体系，并充分兼顾传统与现代的有机融合，在教学与研究中，既有继承传统的治学特点，又有鲜明的时代性和宽广的国际视野。这些，都令我向往。所以，我认为贵校国学院是我的梦想之地，会改变我的人生轨迹。

尊敬的老师，请您考虑并接受我的申请，给我一片天空，让我自由飞翔，给我一片海洋，让我尽情畅游，我相信，进入人大是我最明智的选择。如果顺利被录取，我一定会珍惜时间，勤奋努力，孜孜以求，投身于学术研究，跟随大师足迹，在国学的传承里留下自己的名字，成为国家的栋梁，成为人大的骄傲。

我相信，我可以。

1. 参观和考察学校

预约参观考察学校(首先进入学校的，先注册，然后通过邮件在网上预约参观学校的时间，一般学校都需要你提前预约，也可以自己接打电话预约)。收到回信按预约时间访问学校，会有招生办的老师带领参观校园然后帮助你了解相关学校信息。

2. 网上提交申请材料

确定学校后就可以在提交申请材料，学校的通常都会有完善的申请流程，按照提示和要求来就好。学校收到递交材料后如果有不完善的地方仍然会通过邮件形式与家长沟通，所以记得时常看看邮箱以及垃圾邮件箱。

3. 等待面试通知

从申请到收到面试通知这个过程会比较漫长，至少一个月，两个月也完全有可能。

因为，泰国人办事速度较慢，申请的学生越来越多，而招生办通常就是两三个负责人，她们每天有接待不完的访问者以及上百封邮件要回复。

所以如果怠慢你是非常正常的，建议勤发邮件沟通以防被疏漏。准备的这期间可以好好帮助孩子准备面试。低龄儿童面试对英文的要求不高，能简单的交流。

但是一年级以后的需要有一定的基础，面试包括听说读甚至写，比想象中要难。所以一定要有英文基础。(但各个学校都存在不同程度的差异，所以看你选择的是哪个学校)

4. 面试结果

参加学校面试后，不会立马有结果，通常等上一个月两个月都很正常。所以建议你至少提前半年开始办理申请。泰国开学时间一般都在八月份，一个学年分四个学期，平均两个月为一学期。

5. 交建校费和学费并保留收费单

如果面试成功学校会学校会通知你按时缴费(建校费和学费，学费可以按一学年交也可以按一学期交)学校收到款项会给你邮寄收费单据和签证所需的推荐材料(单据和签证材料都得保存好，这个后续去大使馆办签证要用到)。

尊敬的X大学老师领导：

您好!首先感谢您能在百忙之中抽出时间审视我的申请材料!

我是X市高级中学理科实验班的X，和其他的同胞或者说是竞争者们一样，我也但愿通过贵校的自主招生来实现我一直以来的梦想考入X大学。

在众多高校中，唯有X大学深深吸引了我，而且我也听到X的学长说，X非常适合那些“有想法主意”的人，只要你有想法主意，X都会尽全力帮你实现，我觉得我就是那种有想法主意、有立异意识的人，这也使我更加坚定了“将来一定要到X读书”的决心。凭借着十几年如一日的努力，我的成绩一直名列前茅，中考更是以全市第二十八的成绩考入铁岭市重点高中理科实验班。到了高中，我并没有骄傲，而是更加努力的学习，成绩也有了进一步的奔腾，每次考试成绩均不乱在年级前十名，施展好时还会进入前五名，我坚信自己是有资格进入X大学的。

相信在此之前，您已经阅读过了无数的自荐信，对省、市三好学生，校学生会主席，团支部书记等也已经见怪不怪了。很可惜，这些刺眼的荣誉和职位我都没有，我有的是对X全面的了解，有的是对X始终如一的热爱与向往，有的是“非X不去”的勇气与决心。更重要的是，我有着老实、量力而行的品质，我不会为了得到您的青睐而强调事实，虚张声势，而且我觉得一个人的领导能力、组织能力、交际能力和协调能力并不是只有靠这些职位才能体现出来的，究竟校学生会主席只有一个，但具有多地方能力的高中生远不止这些。

做事坚决，善于筹划是我的另一长处。说到筹划，我对自己的未来也已经做好了初步的打算：近年来，跟着中国经济的起飞，汽车已经走入了平常庶民家。因为汽车产业的提高，这地方精英的需求量也在随之增长。这对从小酷爱汽车，7岁就能识别数十种车标的我，无疑是一种巨大的激励，我也励志将来要进入一家汽车企业，介入设计制造一部机能优异，而且安全节能的汽车。据我所知，现今中国汽车在发念头的节油耐用，不乱机能上仍有一定的进步空间，而伴跟着油价的提高，增压直喷等技术也已走下神坛，进入乘用领域。在车身结构地方，人们对于安全恬静的追求是无止境的，所以有了碰撞吸能设计，有了更优秀的悬架，有了铝材，甚至碳纤维的应用。我愿把我全部的精力都投入到这些领域中，让中国的汽车有朝一日也能展示在世界的大舞台上。这一切看似虚幻的梦想，一旦进入X，就都很有可能变为现实。

尊敬的_老师：

您好!

我叫___，今年17岁，是__市__中学高三_班的一名学生。一直以来，我成绩优异，团结同学。从高一起多次获得“三好学生”“学习标兵”等称号，这些荣誉是老师、学校对我自身努力的一种肯定。在这些荣誉的鼓励下，我更加严格要求自己，谋求全面发展，提高学习及综合能力，取得了更大的进步。

说到学习，我认为自己是一个很有自制力的人，我能够将精力倾注于学习，一心一意，不被周围环境所打扰。正是由于这一点，我总能保持高效率的学习。我并不是一味的与其他同学拼时间，而是注重时间的充分利用，让有限的时间得以延伸，实现的利用效率。学习的高效性帮助我合理的安排作息时间。在取得成绩的稳固与提高的同时，维持良好的生物钟。

当然，我所关注的不仅仅是学习，还有自身综合能力的培养。从高一起，我就一直担任班里的宣传委员，每当各种节日来临之际，我都会亲自进行版面设计，然后再和绘画写字好的同学一起办板报。在所有人的共同努力下，我们班的板报每次在年级的综合评比中总能得到好评。除此之外，我还是学校魔术社的一名社员。我积极参加社团活动，表现优秀，并

多次在学校开展的“社团展示周”活动中代表社团在其他年级和班级表演。这些经历不仅丰富了我的高中生活，同时也进一步提高了我的综合能力。

在高一了解各个高校之初，_大学“自强弘毅求是拓新”的校训便深深吸引了我。“自强”是中华民族的传统美德，成就事业当以此为训，“弘毅”和“求是”又是学习中所必须具有的坚毅刚强的品格和科学严谨的治学态度，而“拓新”则是当今时代发展所必需的动力来源。也许正是因为这样的校训，_大学作为一个历史悠久的高等学府，并没有止步于历史的光环之下，而是紧跟时代的步伐，不断拓新，发展成为长江沿岸上一颗璀璨的明珠。

在众多的学习精英中，我时常会感到压力。但我始终坚信，唯有踏踏实实、勤奋拼搏才能通向成功之路。当我决定做一件事时，就会用最认真的态度竭尽全力去办好它，即使遭遇挫折与困难也决不放弃，直到目标达成。

这就是我，一个热爱_的女孩的自述。虽然前面的道路可能有很多坎坷，但我始终在向前走着，因为我知道，那里有我的梦想，我的希望……

三年前，我怀着对_的憧憬开始了高中三年的学习。我相信，我将凭借着自己的努力带着骄傲和自信踏入_大学的校门!

敬礼!

尊敬的先生/女士：

你好，我叫X，是X大学的老师。也是X学生的班主任，我非常高兴地向你推荐我的学生X，并且相信它能够出色的完成在贵校硕士课程的学习。

自从他进入大学以来，常常表现出与年纪不相符的成熟和稳重。由于班上的大部分同学都来自其他省市，这第一次的出门离家的经历使得他们需要一个相当长的过程适应这个完全陌生的新环境。但我注意到，相比之下，某某同志很快的调整好了心态，积极主动地融入到这个新环境之中。

大学的课程与中学有很大不同，偏重在自学能力，而且专业课程的学习要求另一种思维方式。因此，在大一。大二，很多同学都表现出了不同程度的不适应，不知道该如何学习大学的课程。但是，某某同志适应能力很强，很快摸清了工商管理课程的关键，在很短的时间里就掌握了学习方法，而且其他任课老师都表示他对于新知识的接受能力很强，新学的知识他马上就能消化，当堂就能理解掌握。

可以这么说，班里的部分学生是拿着极其出色的高考成绩走进了我们学校，而某某同志凭借的则是他极强的自学能力和良好的学习方法。这一点，在每学期的期末考试上得到了很好地体现，尤其是在专业英语的期末考试中取得极其优秀的成绩，也是班里少数顺利通过英语四六级考试的同学。他对学习英语的热情和毅力是最让我感动的。除了学同学还校里足球队的主力队员，积极的参加校里组织的各项活动，有极强的组织和领导才能。他经常到我办公室或给我打电话，一起讨论他学习和生活中所遇到的问题，希望取得更好的学习成绩。概括的说某某同志是一个好学生。

我希望贵校能给他一个机会，让他在贵校严谨的学风和良好的学习环境中继续发挥他的特长，进一步提高专业知识，拓宽视野。望贵校考虑它的申请。

"All I know about leadership I learned from..." What items could a personuse to describe leadership qualities?

Inspired by the student council advisors at my high school.

Student council was a big part of my life in high school. I haveparticipated in it since my frst year of high school. When I frst joined, I wasquiet, na?ve, and unwilling to participate in many activities. I was scared tomeet new people and afraid to apply myself. This all began to change. Half waythrough my frst year in student council, one of the advisors can up to me andasked why I did not participate that much. I did not have an answer for her anddid not know how to respond. After this, I began to think of an answer. I becamefrustrated and decided to change. I started to show up at events and had a greattime. I realized I loved this and wanted to start leading these activities. Inmy sophomore, junior, and now my senior year of high school, I asserted myselfand took on a strong leadership role in student council. I did not fgure out theanswer to why I was so reserved until this year with the help of thisquestion.

Dear _,

It is my conviction that the meaning of life does not dwell in the lengthof time that one can live or the material abundance that one can acquire, but inthe richness and the wonderfulness of life itself. With the increase of my age,many things in my life have changed. But one thing remains constant, that is, Iwill consistently insist on doing what I like to do and hope that my endeavorscan be valuable to the life of others. I see this as the only way whereby I canrealize the value of my life.

My undergraduate study focused on economics and I achieved remarkablescholastic performance in this field. My GPA is 3.44 (my GRE score is 20__ andTOEFL---- ). For four consecutive years of my undergraduate study, I receivedscholarships for my distinguished academic performance. Due to my equallyprominent performance in extracurricular activities I was conferred on theOutstanding Student in Campus Activities. However, honestly speaking, my realinterest lies not in economics, but in education. Ever since I was a primaryschool student, I had cherished a strong desire for a teaching careerexemplified by my teachers. In the actual teaching career that I embarked onupon my graduating from university, I have become increasingly aware that theexisting educational conditions in China are far from satisfactory. The backwardteaching methodology and the prevailing pedagogical ideology have renderedChinese education out of place with the modern international development ineducation. On the macro level, the current education theory and practice inChina lag significantly behind advanced countries in the West. For instance,though education via the internet has achieved considerable development in pasttwo years, in practical operation such education has more often than notdeteriorated into an extended form of the conventional examination-orientededucation instead of a really interactive process. In my personal experience,despite the fact that some of the problems that I have encountered in myteaching career can be solved by consulting relevant technical literature, Ihave found that the more serious flaws inherent in Chinas current educationalsystem cannot be worked out easily. Under such circumstances, an advancedprogram in education becomes necessary.

In this age of information, traditional education, both in its ideology andmethodology, has met unprecedented challenge like many other aspects of humanexistence. Meanwhile, the pursuit for higher levels of educational developmentand of the quality of life has largely transformed the educational valueorientation of the general public. The educational model that is centered aroundthe cognitive and intellectual instruction has been seriously questioned.Greater attention has been devoted to the cultivation of well-developedpersonality and to the ontological status of the individual in education. Suchissues as the internal studies of education science, scientific decision-makingin education, and meta-education have also been increasingly emphasized upon.There have also been innovations in educational research methodology. Thetendency has been to combine modern technology with humanistic researchcategories and with naturalistic research categories, and to organicallyintegrate qualitative descriptions with quantitative descriptions. It is alsoimportant to carry out educational experimentations in which educationalpredictions are complemented by educational feedbacks. Both the complexity ofeducation and the complexity of human individuals have made the comprehensiveapplication of diverse educational approaches necessary. Those new horizons arewhat fascinate me.

In view of the following qualifications that I have acquired, I believethat I will acquit myself satisfactorily in the prospective Ph.D. program ineducation that I am currently endeavoring to apply for. First and foremost, asis often claimed, ones interest is ones best director. I believe that I willdo well what I am really interested in doing. Secondly, though I majored ineconomics as an undergraduate, my trainings during that stage helped developeffective modes of thinking and research approaches. In addition, Iconscientiously self-studied many works related to education, including ADevelopmental History of Educational Science in the West, which enabled me toconstruct a solid groundwork for more advanced studies in this field. Next, itcan be safely asserted that education and economics are not entirely separated.For example, it is necessary to apply many statistical methods in educationalpsychology and my academic record indicates that statistics is the subject thatI am most good at. Last but not the least, my current teaching career and myteaching experience will play a positive role in facilitating my target degreeprogram.

The reason why I apply for the University of -- is that it is the firststate university with a time-honored history. The School of Education in thisuniversity is quite prominent among its counterparts in the field. I amparticularly attracted by the Schools powerful pedagogical resource, vibrantintellectual atmosphere and a comprehensive curriculum. I plan to apply for adegree program in Instructional Technology or Educational Psychology, both ofwhich enjoy unparalleled academic reputation in the world. My application forInstructional Technology is motivated by my strong interest in the applicationof modern science and technology, especially the information technologyrepresented by the Internet, in the field of education and in the nature of aseries of revolutionary changes resulting thereof. Instructional Technology is anew discipline that has emerged as a result of the rapid development of moderncommunication technology since the late 20th century. It has tremendouspotential for development and commercial application. As for my motive inselecting Educational Psychology as another possible area of specialization inmy degree program, it is my long-cherished interest that primarily counts. Onthe other hand, all the accomplished educators since the 1960s have beenwell-versed in psychology. Almost every important new educational theory isderived psychological findings in one way or another so that educationalpsychology has subsequently developed into a fundamental subject for the scienceof education. The tendency in the 21st century is to emphasize on the microresearch of educational activities and against this backdrop educationalpsychology will be attached greater importance. In Instructional Technology, Iwould like to focus on the following studies: how to improve educationalefficiency by applying research results from natural sciences and engineeringtechnology; how to explore the combination and coordination of pedagogicalcontents and to improve teaching methodology by exploiting the theoreticalfindings from psychology and educational science concerning the process ofteaching and learning. In Educational Psychology, I will concentrate on appliedcognition and development, gifted and creative education, genetics and childrendevelopment, personality structure and individual differences and other relatedsubjects.

For me, to shift from economics to education and to pursue an advanceddegree in the United States is not so much a challenge as an opportunity. Atpresent, major reforms are being introduced into virtually every importantaspect of Chinese society. The field of education especially calls forcomprehensive reforms. The United States occupies an absolutely leading positionin the present-day world in education. It is my conviction that, in the UnitedStates, advanced educational theories, technologies and information willfacilitate me immensely in the achievement of remarkable academic progress,fulfilling my aspiration to become an accomplished professional in the field ofeducation. This will not only bring my patriotic fervor into reality but alsomake my life more meaningful and rewarding.

Yours sincerely,

尊敬的领导：

您好!

从高一到高三毕业学习成绩有了明显的提高，在这三年中多次获得学校颁发的三好生奖状，进步之星奖，优秀学员奖和多项运动会奖状等。

在高中毕业以后，我想去日本留学深造。

自小就在城市中生活的我十分向往去经济发达的大城市去学习。同时对于自己家乡落后有着深刻的责任感。日本是当今世界上世界上经济最发达的国家之一，电子产品在世界市场的占有率居于榜首。具有强大的海洋捕捞船队和水产品养殖业，渔业发达。留学条件良好，气候四季分明。环境优美，有美丽的樱花，北海道的樱花。

去这些美丽的地方是我小时侯梦想。有优秀的教师和先进的教学设备以及先进的教育理念。于是从上高中开始我就定下了将来去日本留学的想法。

20x年2月底我向家里说明了我想去日本留学的意愿。在当时就得到了家人的许可。于是从20x年的3月份开始我到x日语培训学校学习日语，平常的上课时间我正常到学校学习高中的课程到了，周末就上x日语培训班去学习日语，到现在为止我的日语水平已达到使用最基本的日常用语和进行简单的阅读的程度。日本以后，打算先到语言学校学习。为自己将来进一步的深造做好语言上的准备。

在此基础上，根据本人的个人喜好和特长，想在日本的大学学习物流管理。日本是个经济文化繁荣发达的国家，尤其改革开放以来，中日两国经济文化艺术的交流更加深入。当我学有所成回国后，将致力于家乡的经济发展，用在日本所学的先进的管理方去经营自己家乡的企业。也愿意在日友好中日文化经济交流方面贡献自己的聪明才智。

父母支持我的留学请求，能够支付我在日本的一切费用。我到日本以后，保证遵守日本的法律遵守学校的规章制度。好好学习，增长本领，成为一个有用的人才

真诚地希望我的留学申请会被批准。

此致

敬礼!

尊敬的大使(签证官)：

我的名字叫__， 2_岁。现在在__大学__学院就读，是-名__学专业的大学生。在父母的呵护下长大的我，从小就有一个心愿，就是可以到韩国学习韩国文化。所以，我喜欢收集韩国各方面的资料，包括民俗文化、科学技术。通过资料我逐渐了解到，韩国在东亚地区具有重要地位，她的历史悠久而灿烂，拥有独特的建筑、让难忘的与众不同的饮食，韩国的服饰更是让人喜欢。我最喜欢的是韩国的语言，听起来那么好听那么温柔。韩国是世界发达国家之一，她的科学技术在世界具有相当地位，电子产品在中国广受欢迎，而韩国的教育水平在世界更是瞩目。韩国比较突出的还有它的艺术，韩国的电视剧在东亚地区刮起过不小的风浪，而现代舞蹈和民俗舞蹈更是让世人惊叹。

韩国是礼仪之邦，韩国人民的热情友好是世界公认的，我希望可以在这样一个将传统 与现代很好结合在一起的国家继续深造。

性格开朗的我很喜欢护理行业，从小就喜欢白衣天使这个名字。看着护士小姐温柔的动作和美丽的仪态就特别向往着长大后可以做一名出色的护士。终于，我如愿以偿考上了延边大学护理学院，从此开始了护理学学习的道路。如今我即将毕业，实际操作能力虽然优良，可我发现我所学到的护理知识并不完善，所以我想继续深造。

通过网络，我收集到了很多关王韩国护理学方面的资料，了解到韩国有很多综合性大学都设有护理专业，如韩国梨花女女子大学、韩国延世大学等等。这些大学都具有悠久的历史、庞大的规模、尖级的教授队伍，最重要的是韩国的医学方面已经达到世界先进水平。这样优秀的大学是我渴望学习的最好的学校，因此我很向往去这样优异的环境中继续学习我热爱的护理学专业。虽然，语言是我面临的最大难题，但我会努力克服。我相信以我的学习能力加上韩国的语言环境，我会很快掌握这门美丽的语言，进而更快地无阻碍地学习护理知识，并将它用于实践中。因此我想申请梨花女子大学，因为我了解到梨花女子大学的护理系无论在教学上还是师资力量都是世界前矛。如果我能申请到，我-定会先在韩国语学习班刻苦学习，尽早将韩国语的日常用语和基本词汇掌握。在攻克语言的基础上，好好学习护理知识，为促进中韩两国文化发展做贡献。希望签证官考虑我的请求。

first, new zealand is a multicultural country, which has the most advanced education in the world. second, the tuition is lower than other countries’, which i think is mo

re reasonable for me. finally, the climate of new zealand is similar with the climate of the south of china. considering above reasons, i told my parents my plan on going to new zealand for study, and my parent agreed with me.

as a girl, i like preschool education since i was young. nowadays, chinese parents, who want their children to get better education, pay more attention to preschool education. if i study specialized curriculums on preschool education, i will go back china and work hard on preschool education after leaving college.

my plan is as follows: first, i plan to study english in language institute for about a half year in new zealand. then, i will study specialized curriculums on preschool education.

尊敬的_大学的老师们：

您们好!

我叫__，女，17岁，是西北大学附属中学理科一班的学生。

我是一个喜欢热闹的人，我总喜欢和同学们聚在一起谈论身边的大事小事，也会一起讨论一些很复杂的问题，但更多的是一起畅想未来，每当这时我们都会笑得很开心。其实我是一个特别喜欢笑的女孩，因为我坚信笑容可以给我的朋友们带来快乐，而我自己也在同时收获到快乐。所以我爱笑，就算遇到挫折也选择用这样的态度来迎接，以给自己更多的信心。也就是因为爱笑，同学们有时会说我像个傻瓜，不过我从未介意过，因为我希望我的朋友都快乐。

在学习上，我态度端正，曾担任学习委员和语文课代表，并且获得了许多荣誉。在生活中，因为我的笑让我与同学更团结了，也因此在小学一直担任班长，升入高年级后开始担任大队委、大队长，多年获得“三好学生”、“优秀班干部”，这些荣誉是我今生难忘的

它们是老师、学校对我的学习、工作的一种肯定，也一直激励着我向前。但我从未因此骄傲，而是怀着一颗感恩的心，感谢我的老师始终关心我、爱护我;感谢老师给我的荣誉，让我看到自己努力的价值;感谢老师教会我如何做一个正直的人。

我最喜欢的运动是游泳，我觉得在水里可以让我的头脑更清醒，所以无论是酷夏还是寒冬，只要有机会我就泡在水里。我也喜欢听音乐并且涉猎的范围很广，从通俗音乐到交响乐都有我喜欢的，之所以喜欢听音乐大概是因为我觉得这样可以让我的心静下来吧。

考试失利或遇到烦心事时我都会借此来舒缓压力。我还喜欢写随笔和涂鸦，把自己的开心或不快写出来、画出来，有时也会义愤填膺地写上一篇文章评论当下的新闻和一些社会现象。

我自认是一个爱玩的人，但对学习还是很认真的。我感觉自己是一个比较有自制力的人，知道什么时候该学习，也知道学习时不能分心，并且能遵守它。可我不觉得自己是人们通常所说的“书呆子”--只是一心扑在学习上，而不注重与别人交往。

所以我有很多朋友，我们一起学习，也约定一起向目标努力。同时我的外向性格也理所当然使我拥有了对外界强烈的好奇心和探索欲望，这也让我的眼界更加开阔。长得越大，懂得越多，我的探索欲望也越强烈，它驱使着我不停地向未知世界“进攻”，同时我也收获到学习的快乐。

我每天上学都要经过西电，校园里树木很多，我经常能闻到绿树青草的香味，而一旁古朴的教学楼更让这个校园显得优雅，久而久之我也就对这所伫立在闹事之中却能保持它原有气息的高校产生了浓厚的兴趣。后来，我开始查看有关电子科技大学的资料。

我渐渐了解了关于这所高校的历史沿革、办学理念和学科设置等一系列情况。我知道了电子科技大学是以信息与电子学科为主，工、理、管、文多学科协调发展的全国重点大学，是国家“211工程”立项建设的重点高校之一。而且学校汇聚了一支政治素质优良、学术水平高、结构合理的教师队伍。最让我感到兴奋的是“神五”、“神六”飞船副总设计师杨宏等一大批IT行业领军人物和技术骨干原来都是电子科技大学培养出来的。

看到这些，我情不自禁地笑了起来，与其说是为陕西有如此好的高校而高兴，还不如说是为自己找到了目标而高兴。特别是西电的通信工程专业吸引了我，对宇宙飞船和神秘的外太空充满好奇的我，希望自己也能像杨宏老师那样为航天事业做出贡献。

的确，从那时起我就决定不管结果怎样，都要以电子科技大学为目标奋斗。

我深知确定了目标就要为之而努力，否则一切都是徒劳的，但我有时也会对大学的生活充满想象：我想象着与大学里的同学一起生活的那种快乐;想象着与教授们一起探讨问题时的那种学习氛围;想象着丰富多彩的社会实践活动……而现在，为了我的目标和我所幻想的一切美好我必须更加刻苦地学习。

但在众多的优秀学生之间，我常常会感到力不从心，甚至是自卑，这是我的一大缺点。但在成长的过程中我一直在努力克服它，并且我也认识到唯有踏踏实实、勤奋拼搏才是通向成功的路。

我现在就在这条路上走着，虽然辛苦但我甘之若饴。我相信既然我有缘每天与_擦肩而过，我就会在不远的一天怀抱感恩的心骄傲地踏进那扇我向往已久的大门。

Dear _,

As a 28-year-old female, there has been nothing sensational about my pasteducation and career experience. I do not feel any regret because I have alwaysbeen making worthy efforts to achieve personal development and to enrich my lifein my own way. Helen Keller serves as a paragon that I will emulate in my entirelifetime. The beautiful things that she brought to the world with her lovingheart and her strength convince me that the power of the spiritual motivation isinfinite. An individual lives a meaningful live only to the extent of benefitingthe welfare of others. Both my education and my five-year work experience haveunmistakably made me believe that economics is a science whose ultimate functionis the improvement of human welfare. The motivation behind my currentapplication for a Master’s program in economics is to pursue a more fruitfulcareer development in the future so that the process of my self-actualizationwill also be a process of making contributions to others.

My education background makes me an appropriate candidate for your program.My education consists of two stages. From 1993 to 1995 I received a juniorcollege education from the Business School of _ University, majoring inmarketing. Then I proceeded onto an undergraduate program in the Department ofBusiness Administration of _ University, waived of entrance examination becauseof my distinguished academic performance at the junior college (ranking topsecond among 31 students in the class). During my undergraduate program, Icontinue to maintain a satisfactory academic performance, ranking top ten amonga total of 51 students. Completing my undergraduate program in 1998, I obtaineda Bachelor’s degree in economics.

Through my undergraduate program, I gained an increasingly deepunderstanding of the importance of economics. As far as I am concerned,economics is by no means an abstract discipline. It is closely connected withreality and is designed to explore and explain diverse economic phenomena andeconomic laws. For the foreseeable future, the conflict between the scarcity ofnatural resources and the infinitude of human demand will continue to persist,posing a long-lasting threat to the social development of all nations. Thenecessity to seek a solution to this conflict gave birth to Economics, whichpromises to maximize material wealth through an optimum allocation of resources.Because of my diligent efforts at coursework and my strong interest ineconomics, I managed to achieve a top-10 ranking in my class，winning the honorof Outstanding Student and a second-class scholarship. I familiarized myselfwith most classic works on economics and management, including Principles ofManagement by Harold Koontz, Economics by Samuelson, Competition Strategy byPorter and Wealth of Nations by Adam Smiths, etc. From the very beginning of myeconomics study, I have tried to expose myself to western perspectives.

Starting from the premise that economics will be lifeless unless it isapplied to the problems in the real world, I paid special attention in myundergraduate program to the combination of theory and practice as a way oflearning and applying my knowledge of economics. I once spent a whole summervacation on conducting a survey of the fast food business in _ City. I sampled15 fast food restaurants, carried out interviews with restaurant owners and thecustomers. I applied quantitative analysis to my statistics and proposedconcrete measures for developing the city’s fast food industry through improvingmanagement, business environment, food variety and service quality.

My research ability was improved through writing my thesis –The Protectionand the Development of China’s National Industry in the Age of Reform andOpening Up. The thesis focuses on China’s joining of WTO and its possiblenegative impact on the growth of national industry. My conclusion is that acareful balance must be struck between the protection of national industry andthe introduction of foreign capital. The thesis was rated “Excellent” for itscomprehensive theoretical formulation, detailed statistics and creativeperspectives.

Yours sincerely,

from: fan pu

department of the special class gifted for youths university of science andtechnology hefei, anhui 230026, p.r. china july 1, 1998 dear sir or madam:

i take great pleasure in recommending wang yong, one of my favoritestudents, for admission into your distinguished graduate program.

mr. wang was admitted in 1986 at 14 years of age into the special class forthe gifted youths, my universitys unique program that caters to theintellectual needs of unusually talented chinese youngsters. it was a rareprivilege he earned with his nearly impeccable academic performance through theyears of his elementary and secondary school.

he impressed me almost as he entered into my university, a major cradle ofchinas scientific and technological talents. at the time, members of the giftedclass all had to spend half a month studying by themselves the principles ofcalculus and then take an exam so that we could evaluate their self-studycapability. mr. wang scored the highest grade in that exam. he also exhibited akeenly whetted mind during class discussions. to my regret at the time, hisenglish was not as good as his mathematics or physics. but i noticed he made apoint of working especially hard in improving his english during his fiveundergraduate years with us. by now, he seems to be at least as proficient inenglish as most of his former classmates in the gifted class.

in my experience with mr. wang, i was impressed with not only his

extraordinary intelligence but also his ambitions and persistence. i amsure that mr. wang will be an outstanding student in any doctoral program thathe may care to enroll in. so i would like to support him firmly in his questrecommendation into account when considering his application. i would greatlyappreciate it you decide to accept him as he wishes.

yours sincerely fan pu professor and deputy head.
