Background introduction

When I first took over K, K's background was basically a blank. He had a good undergraduate background and studied marketing in TOP universities in China, but his GPA was relatively not good, less than 3.0. The student was also very nervous and repeatedly expressed the hope that he could get a good offer. I got 100+ on TOEFL and 325+ on GRE.

Background analysis

The plot of the famous school between K and his parents could be clearly felt when they communicated for the first time. Student K repeatedly stressed that he wanted to go to a famous university, but at the same time he also wanted to consider some projects similar to his undergraduate major. I also have some ideas about schools, such as applying for Chicago, Columbia, Duke, Vanderbilt and so on.

When choosing a school for students, there are two ideas that most students and parents hope for. One is very clear professional orientation. Students have clear and definite career planning and are required to take a certain major or a major related to this major. There are also some parents and students' demands are very clear and clear, I just want to go to a famous school, and I do not care about my major. Youse's years of application experience allow us to be comfortable with both ideas.

Solution sharing

After clarifying the students' pursuit, the Youse team works together to give the best school selection plan. After a series of communication, we agreed that social work was the most promising field, and we also offered it to some universities in marketing and media. After the school selection plan was presented to K, K was very much approved. With this plan, we began to help K to make a plan for background improvement. First of all, we took stock of K's current resources, including those from securities companies, cultural companies and technology companies, which are no problem for K to apply for marketing and media-related majors. Moreover, K has a lot of marketing and media-related culture in his undergraduate studies, which does not need much supplement. However, student K does not have any background related to social work, which is relatively lacking for application and writing. In this case, we planned an internship in a social work organization for K, and found out the activities related to hearing-impaired children among the students' previous activities.

On the basis of this background planning, the student's clerical direction is very clear and very characteristic. Focusing on the related experiences of hearing-impaired children and supplemented by internships in social work organizations, students' career planning and application motives are very clear and reasonable. Foreign teachers' feedback on students' writing can be very good support for students' graduate program applications.

Admission result

It was in this effort that the student was invited to take the English test by the school even though he or she did not meet the school's minimum TOEFL score requirement (the Chicago program required a TOEFL score of 104 and a minor score of 26) (there was no interview requirement for the Chicago program, and previous students who did not meet the school's requirements were basically rejected outright). We attach great importance to this test and specially find a foreign teacher to simulate K. At the end of the simulation, a detailed review was conducted on student K to guide student K on how to prepare and how to communicate with tester. At the same time, I also made detailed preparations for the relevant experience and content mentioned in the document. As expected, although the invitation to Chicago was an English test, we asked a lot of interview questions during the whole process, such as how to treat the hearing-impaired children, why did we choose this direction, and so on, and these questions were prepared in advance. The students did very well in the test.

A week after the interview, we received an offer from Chicago, plus a $6,000 scholarship. This offer has refreshed our admission record! Facts have proved that as long as reasonable planning, good writing, and careful preparation, low GPA can also attack elite schools! Reasonable planning, dreams will eventually shine into reality!
