芝加哥大學(xué)2020-2021文書題目
芝加哥大學(xué)歷來都是公認(rèn)最看重學(xué)生文書的院校之一,尤其是在今年標(biāo)化考試眾多變數(shù)的情況下,文書寫作對(duì)于芝大申請(qǐng)人來說肯定是越發(fā)重要。下面就來看看芝加哥大學(xué)今年的文書題目吧。
在美本申請(qǐng)中,文書非常重要,除了Common App系統(tǒng) 的主文書外,大多數(shù)學(xué)校還會(huì)要求遞交補(bǔ)充文書,以此更深入地了解申請(qǐng)者本人。
芝加哥大學(xué)尤其看重文書部分,除了正常的申請(qǐng)文書之外,芝加哥大學(xué)還會(huì)讓學(xué)生提交一些比較獨(dú)特的補(bǔ)充文書。芝加哥大學(xué)的文書題目也一向以趣味性和獨(dú)特另類著稱,也被眾多申請(qǐng)者認(rèn)為是最費(fèi)腦細(xì)胞的文書。
芝加哥大學(xué)認(rèn)為,這些文書是學(xué)生向招生官介紹自己,展示他們的品味和抱負(fù)的機(jī)會(huì)。2020-2021的芝加哥文書題目是怎樣的,快來跟著小編來看看今年的題目是有多燒腦吧。>>如何申請(qǐng)芝加哥大學(xué)?點(diǎn)擊咨詢
