Do you know what happens to applicants after they have submitted their documents to the admissions office?
How do admissions officers choose the applicants they like?
3 things admissions officers want to see in your application.
1. The impression you make in communication.
The way you speak determines how people treat you!
This is one of the key points in the way universities view your attitude and character, which is often recorded and tracked by schools in real-time, and admissions officers often use these little details to assess whether you will be accepted into the university.
2. Highlight what sets you apart from others.
Grades are not the most important thing, think about how to stand out without them.
In the view of the admissions officer, grades are only the threshold.
Your interest and enthusiasm in a particular field, the achievement of studies and activities, and the constant challenge to yourself are what the officer wants to see.
3. Impress your admissions officer in 12 minutes.
Demonstrate the best personal statement and supplement essay and scores.
Admissions officers look at a minimum of 130 applications each day, and one application takes about 12 minutes. Pick out the achievements that you believe to be the most important and present them to the admissions officer.
Be careful not to repeat your descriptions in your essay and keep your application as concise as possible.
