文书要求

In lieu of a general personal statement, the MSF application requires two essays. Please submit your answers to the following essay prompts through the “Questions” section of the online application.
1. Describe your career aspirations. What roles, companies, industries, and regions do you see yourself working in and how do you see Marshall's MSF program helping you achieve your goals? (300 words maximum).
2. Tell us about who you are outside of your academic accomplishments. What are you passionate about? (300words maximum.)
Optional Essay: Is there something that you would like for the Admissions Committee to know about you that has not already been mentioned. (Optional; 250 words maximum).
文书思路建议
outside of your academic accomplishments. What are you passionate about
通过课外兴趣去展现更好的人设,如”热情、努力、思考、提升“的品质,因篇幅非常短,应该保持核心信息优先的原则。过渡句、总起句尽量省去,起到功能性作用即可。在有限的篇幅里尽可能把涵盖的信息全面丰富,展示多元化的个人特质。
