?美国普林斯顿大学是全世界最富有的大学之一,也是很多国内优秀学子的向往之地。下面就为大家带来。 As you explore what Princeton has to offer, you'll probably want to know what traits are most common in admitted students. We look for students with intellectual curiosity, who have pursued and achieved academic excellence. We also look for students with strong personal and extracurricular accomplishments 美国普林斯顿大学招生委员会希望了解究竟多大程度上,在哪些方面,候选的学生已经超越了他们所在学校或者生活的社区——从这个标准来看,和我国招生完全不同,高考是招收那些已经被奴化的学生,而普林斯顿大学招生已经超越的学生。 Our goal is to understand how applicants have excelled within their particular schools and communities. We understand that you face a unique set of challenges and opportunities, and we expect to see how you have taken advantage of those specific circumstances. We evaluate each candidate indivially and we make decisions based on a holistic review of the application. 美国普林斯顿大学希望学生已经学习过的课程是哪些呢?英语,数学,外语,历史,科学实验课,考生需要每个学科上最好有成就,或者排名靠前,而且,考生高中阶段双学位课程(中国高中没有,但是可以利用跨学校或者选修北大清华本科课程来弥补)受到高度重视。总之,你要挑战自己,比如,你体育,音乐等在高中优秀都是和双学位同等的优势。如果考生是国内读A-level 课程或者国际高中,你们所在学校成绩是证明,但是千万不要作假。诚实永远是做人的第一原则。我非常反对那些家长,利用各种关系修改成绩,或者做假的工作或者艺术证明,这样已经违背了我们做学问和做人的准则。就是被录取了,又怎么样呢? We expect applicants to have taken courses in the following, if possible: English, mathematics, foreign language, laboratory science and history. (Full details are given on the Academic Preparation page.) In addition, we look for applicants who have challenged themselves with honors, advanced placement (AP) and al-enrollment courses available to them. We evaluate International Baccalaureate (IB), A-levels or another diploma within the context of the program’s curriculum. 美国普林斯顿大学提供的建议如下,请考生和家长参考。 Our Advice Instead of worrying about meeting a specific set of criteria, try to create an application that will help us see your achievements — inside the classroom and out — in their true context, so we can understand your potential to take advantage of the resources at Princeton and the kind of contribution you would make to the Princeton community. Show us what kind of student you are. Show us that you have taken advantage of what your high school has to offer, how you have achieved and contributed in your own particular context. We look for students who make a difference in their schools and communities, so tell us about your leadership activities, interests, special skills and other extracurricular involvements. Tell us if you’ve had a job or a responsibility in your home. Most Princeton students were academic standouts in high school. Most of them also invested their energy and talents in significant ways outside the classroom. We want to know what you care about, what commitments you have made and what you’ve done to act on those commitments. Essays We ask applicants to write two essays as part of the application. This is your opportunity to display your best writing as well as your ability to convey ideas in your own voice. While you may want to have a parent, guidance counselor or teacher proofread your essays, it is extremely important that the essays be your own work. Intellectual integrity is a fundamental principle at Princeton. When you complete your application you are asked to sign a statement certifying that all the information on the application, including the essays, is your own work. Princeton may withdraw the application or revoke the admission of any student whose essays have been written by another source, including essays found on the Internet. 以上就是为大家带来的,希望能够对大家有所帮助。
