文书 #1 (字数要求: 500-650)
Beyond your impressive academic credentials and extracurricular accomplishments, what else makes you unique and colorful? We know nobody fits neatly into 500 words or less, but you can provide us with some suggestion of the type of person you are. Anything goes! Inspire us, impress us, or just make us laugh. Think of this optional opportunity as show and tell by proxy and with an attitude.
除了你令人印象深刻的学术成绩和课外成就,还有什么别的令你独特且多姿多彩?我们知道没有人可以被不到500字的文章来限制,但你能以此来告诉我们你是哪种类型的人。任何事情都可以!激励我们,给我们留下深刻印象,或是单单让我们乐一乐。可以借这个可选的机会做个有态度的自我介绍。
文书 #2 : Joint Degree Programme / 联合学位项目 (字数要求: 1500-2000)
As an applicant to the Joint Degree Programme you are required to submit an additional 1500 – 2000 word essay outlining your interest in the particular academic area to which you are applying – Classical Studies, Economics, English, Film Studies, History, or International Relations; and what particularly interests you about the JDP in your chosen major. Be as specific as you can. Demonstrating that you are familiar with the JDP website—its policies and curriculum—will be helpful to your application, as will examples of your ability to take on a particularly challenging, as well as rewarding, educational experience that demands adaptability, flexibility, and an appreciation for other cultures and institutional practices.
作为联合学位项目的申请者,你需要提交一份附加文书简述你在所申请的特定学术领域(古典学、经济学、英文、电影研究、历史或国际关系)上的兴趣,以及在此项目就读所选专业的兴趣。请尽可能具体。显示出你对联合学位项目网站的熟悉程度(包括相关政策和课程安排)会对你的申请有帮助。此外也可举例证明你有能力完成一个兼具挑战和丰厚回报的教育体验,这种体验需要一定适应性、灵活性以及对外国文化和制度的欣赏。
