文书要求
Required Short Answer Questions
INSTRUCTIONS:
Answer all three questions. Respond in 500 characters at most (the equivalent of about 100 words per question).
1. Why are you pursuing the MMS degree at this stage in your professional development?
2. What are your immediate career goals after completing the MMS program?
3. Life is full of uncertainties, and plans and circumstances can change. As a result, navigating a career requires you to be adaptable. Should the immediate goals that you provided above not materialize, what alternative directions have you considered?
Required Essay 1
INSTRUCTIONS:
Present your response in list form, numbered from 1-25. Some points may be only a few words, while others may be longer. Your complete list should not exceed two pages.
Question: The "Team Fuqua" spirit and community is one of the things that set the Fuqua experience apart, and it is a concept that extends beyond the student body to include faculty, staff, and administration. When a new person joins the admissions team, we ask that person to share with everyone in the office a list of "25 Random Things About Yourself." As an admissions team, we already know the new hire's professional and academic background, so learning these "25 Random Things" helps us to get to know someone's personality, background, special talents, and more.
In this spirit, the admissions committee also wants to get to know you—beyond the professional and academic achievements listed in your resume and transcript. You can share with us important life experiences, your likes and dislikes, hobbies, achievements, fun facts, or anything that helps us understand what makes you who you are.
Required Essay 2
INSTRUCTIONS:
Respond in 350 words at most.
For our MMS: Foundations of Business class, the admissions team is looking for students who are eager to engage with, and learn from, their classmates. This learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom, as extracurricular engagement is an important part of the MMS experience. Describe how you would plan to be engaged outside of the classroom and how your unique perspective, experiences, and passions will add to the MMS community.
OPTIONAL ESSAY
If you feel there are circumstances of which the admissions committee should be aware (e.g., unexplained gaps in work, choice of recommenders or lack of a professional recommendation, inconsistent or questionable academic performance), please explain them. Do NOT upload additional essays nor additional recommendations in this area. The optional essay is intended to provide the admissions committee with insight into your circumstances only.
文书思路建议
3个小问题：
1. 为什么申请，本科是商科专业的进阶以及后续发展，本科是非商科专业的，还是focus在自己领域内，因为商业管理不是一个特定的领域，可以在任何领域应用，从而从技术从业者，变成管理者
2. 短期的职业规划，尽量做到足够具体和完整，不要假大空，最好能说清楚一个完整清晰的路径
3. 不确定性和Plan B，建议跨度要大，注意 Plan B 不要和 Plan A公用同样的前提条件，可以退而求其次，也可以另辟蹊径，尽量不要放一个同等地位和难度的Plan B。客观上是无法完成的，甚至不能自圆其说
4. 25件事，可以适当注意配比，爱好，活动，社团，个人理解，获奖，生活琐事，学术等等均可，有能力的情况下，做好人物画像。 每个的字数不能太多，挑重点说，举例，参加什么比赛，谁有资格参加，规模，已经获得什么奖项即可。
5. 课堂外学术或职业，对于非商科专业的同学有不错的发挥空间，有Diversity 成分但是不要跑题或者过分
6. Optional一般是解释用的，不建议无脑写，意义不会很大
