2017年申请美国留学之课外活动

想的学生应该知道，招生官员做决定时考量的不仅是申请人是否有优异的成绩，而是关注。他们还想知道，一个学生进入一所大学，能给学校带来哪些裨益。学生的个人爱好就是一个很好的指标。而个人爱好通常能在课外活动中得到诠释。美国学生经常会把哪类包含在大学申请当中呢?《纽约时报》列出了如下答案:

1.服务性实践或慈善活动

Colleges appreciate it when students are aware of the problems their own communities are experiencing. They value students who are interested in giving back to their communities.

如果学生能意识到自己所在社区(群体)的问题，美国大学会很欣赏这一点。他们十分看重学生乐于回报社区的品质。

2.学生组织和俱乐部

A student s involvement in clubs and organizations gives an admissions officer a better sense of that student s interests and how the applicant interacts with peers in a nonacademic setting.

学生对俱乐部和组织活动的参与，能让招生官员更好地了解申请人的兴趣，以及在非学术环境下，如何与同伴进行互动。[SITESERVER_PAGE]

3.实习经历

Colleges appreciate an applicant who uses his or her free time proactively. Whether it s working on an advertising campaign at a formal internship, or sorting mail as an assistant for a family friend, internships can help admissions officers see how students apply skills and knowledge to a real world environment.

美国大学欣赏能够积极利用课余时间的申请人。无论是参与广告宣传活动的正式实习，还是为父母的朋友做助理整理信件，实习经历能让招生官员了解，学生是如何把所学的技能和知识运用到实际中的。

4.个人项目

Whether it s starting a blog, forming a company, making a movie, recording a song, or hosting a science fair, colleges value individual forts because they show signs of leadership.

无论是开博客、创业、拍电影、录制歌曲，还是举办科学展览，学校会重视这些个人的努力，因为这些活动能显示出学生的领导力。
