整体题目未变,但对题干表述进行了微调,更加凸显威尔斯利作为女校的影响力。今年要从Wellesley 100的网站中选择两个吸引和启发申请者的项目进行阐述说明。

When choosing a college community, you are choosing an intellectual community and a place where you believe that you can live, learn, and flourish. We know that there are more than 100 reasons to choose Wellesley, but it's a good place to start. Visit the Wellesley 100 and select two items that attract, inspire, or energize you. Have fun with this and use this opportunity to reflect personally on what items appeal to you most and why.(两段,250-400词)

三、鲍登学院

新增一篇Optional的文书,题目为Navigating Through Differences(克服差异),给申请人额外机会阐述自己的过往经历。

Bowdoin believes that only through building a more diverse and inclusive campus community will the College best prepare graduates to be contributing and useful citizens of the world.

Every graduate of this institution should be confident in their preparation to be able to navigate through differences and in all sorts of situations.

A Bowdoin education does not guarantee these skills, but it does impart a set of tools necessary to bravely enter unfamiliar conditions with the confidence to deal effectively with ambiguity.

If you wish, you may use this space to share anything about your personal background not otherwise captured in your application or your experience navigating through difference. (650 words)

翻译:鲍登认为,只有通过建立一个更加多元化和包容性的校园社区,学院才能更好地将毕业生培养成有贡献和有用的世界公民。

在为了能够在各种情况下克服差异做准备的过程中,该学校的每个毕业生都应该充满信心。

鲍登的教育并不能承诺这些技能,但它确实传授给学生了一套必要的方法,让他们勇敢地踏入陌生的环境,并有信心有效地处理不确定性。

如果你愿意,可以在此分享跟你有关的任何个人背景信息,这些信息是在你的申请中或你克服差异的经历中没有提及的。(650词)

四、卡尔顿学院

原有价值观一题改为3选1题目:Community贡献类、学术探索、传统与创新,考察学生的创造力、研究能力、个人影响力以及学校的匹配度。

1. Carleton’s community plan for inclusion, diversity, and equity aims to nurture and develop an even stronger community where students, faculty, and staff belong and thrive. How might you contribute to a sense of belonging at Carleton?

翻译:卡尔顿学院的关于包容、多样性和公平的社区计划旨在培养和发展一个更强大的社区,使学生、教师和工作人员有归属感并茁壮成长。你如何为卡尔顿学院的归属感做出贡献?

2. Before graduation, every Carleton student completes a senior project, known as “comps.” Comps projects take many different forms: a few recent examples are formal research papers, public presentations, and even a live staging of a theater production. Based on your current academic interests, what type of comps project or topic would you explore, and why? (No pressure, we won’t hold you to this!)

翻译:在毕业前,每个卡尔顿学院的学生都要完成一个高级项目,称为"comps"。毕业设计有许多不同的形式:最近的几个例子是正式的研究论文、公开演讲,甚至是戏剧作品的现场演出。根据你目前的学术兴趣,你会探索哪种类型的comps项目或主题,以及为什么?

3. Traditions at Carleton center around building and appreciating community. Some examples include the new student frisbee toss, Friday flowers, and baking cookies at Dacie Moses House. If you were tasked with creating a new Carleton tradition, what would you propose and how would you emphasize community within your idea?

翻译:卡尔顿学院的传统围绕着建设和欣赏社区。比如说,新生掷飞盘、周五鲜花和在达西摩西之家烘烤饼干。如果你的任务是创造一个新的卡尔顿传统,你会提出什么建议,你会如何在你的想法中强调社区?

五、瓦萨学院

原Why School题目取消,改为与Community相关的2选1题目:Diversity多元化与性格塑造。

1. At Vassar, we aim to foster an inclusive community through our philosophy of engaged pluralism. Engaged pluralism is rooted in “the conviction that collaborating across differences is necessary for social transformation and critical for the well-being of any community and its members.” In short, we believe it's our differences that make us stronger. Tell us a little bit about what makes you unique and what you hope to add to our community.

翻译:在瓦萨,我们的目标是通过我们的参与式多元主义哲学培养一个包容性的社区。参与式多元主义植根于这样一种信念,即“跨越差异的合作对于社会转型是必要的,对于任何社区及其成员的福祉也是至关重要的"。 简而言之,我们相信正是我们的差异使我们更加强大。请告诉我们你的独特之处,以及你希望为我们的社区做出哪些贡献。

2. Vassar is a diverse community that inspires positive change through open inquiry, deep dives into society’s most difficult challenges, and collaborative problem solving. We care deeply about one another, the communities that have forged us, and the community we build together on campus. Tell us more about the community (or communities) you come from and how it has shaped who you are.

翻译:瓦萨是一个多元化的社区,通过开放的探究,深入研究社会最困难的挑战,以及合作解决问题的方式,不断激发着积极的变化。我们深深地关心彼此,关心造就我们的社区,以及我们在校园里共同建设的社区。请详细说说你所来自的社区(可以是多个)以及它是如何塑造你的。

六、哈维穆德学院

Why School文书改为背景塑造“Influence”类题目,同时考察科研能力与价值观。

How has your own background influenced the types of problems you want to solve, the people you want to work with, and the impact you hope your work can have?

翻译:你的背景是如何影响你想解决的问题类型、你想与之共事的人以及你希望你的工作能够产生的影响?

今年无论是综合大学还是文理学院,都更加强调community的重要性,重点考察社申请者对于“包容、多元、公平”社群的理解,以及对于社群的贡献度和影响力。很多文理学院会在题目叙述中,先将自己学校的理念和价值观阐述出来,再邀请申请者分享自身的经历和看法,言外之意学校是希望挑选出与之匹配度高、契合度高的候选人。
