最佳回答您好,圣保羅錄取的學(xué)生是比較多樣,學(xué)校喜歡學(xué)生有自己獨(dú)特的一面,有自己的想法,主動(dòng)性,自律性要比較好,同時(shí)抗壓性也要夠好。另外,學(xué)校比較重視人文課程,喜歡人文類課程的學(xué)生更能在學(xué)校獲得更多資源。中國(guó)這邊錄取的學(xué)生里面有的有體育特長(zhǎng),有的有音樂特長(zhǎng)等,整體錄取的學(xué)生是非常優(yōu)秀的。
另外,從我們目前和學(xué)校的溝通以及學(xué)生的申請(qǐng)來看,今年TOP10枚高并沒有明顯下降趨勢(shì),不少學(xué)校反饋整體國(guó)際學(xué)生申請(qǐng)數(shù)量下降,但是美國(guó)孩子的申請(qǐng)數(shù)量上升了,所以整體競(jìng)爭(zhēng)還是很激烈的,而不少學(xué)生會(huì)因?yàn)镾SAT 的可選原則,可能會(huì)有更多學(xué)生想去沖刺下前十。
在等候期間,如果孩子有明顯的進(jìn)展或者完成具體項(xiàng)目的話,可以跟學(xué)校進(jìn)行匯報(bào)跟進(jìn),但如果沒有太多比較有意義的進(jìn)展,不建議頻繁給學(xué)校發(fā)郵件,耐心等待會(huì)更好一點(diǎn)。

你好家長(zhǎng),我一一回答:
1. 圣保羅首先偏文,其次喜歡有運(yùn)動(dòng)特長(zhǎng)的學(xué)生。從過往送到圣保羅的學(xué)生而言(美國(guó)的和國(guó)際的)相當(dāng)一部分很有背景,但也有少數(shù)普通一些的。個(gè)別招生官的面試并不友好,要抗住壓力。
2. 這個(gè)我還沒有大數(shù)據(jù),據(jù)我個(gè)人跟體制內(nèi)的招辦人員,校長(zhǎng)等同仁的交流以及相對(duì)于去年同期幫助的學(xué)生數(shù)量而言,似乎沒有下降。
3. 這個(gè)溝通因人、因校而異,如有新的成績(jī)等即使給學(xué)校更新,這是最基本的,還有就是要了解每個(gè)學(xué)校招辦內(nèi)的具體做決定的人員,錄取委員會(huì)成員等等因素進(jìn)行適時(shí)適當(dāng)?shù)臏贤ā? -
圣保羅喜歡的學(xué)生一般都是精英家庭,他們希望錄取的學(xué)生也都是本身優(yōu)秀的,父母是優(yōu)秀的。如果學(xué)校需要,他們可以做出貢獻(xiàn)。有一些招生官面試并不友好,今年我們一個(gè)學(xué)生面試的時(shí)候,就說了招生官不友好。但是不管招生官友好不友好,自己還是要做最好的自己。
今年中國(guó)申請(qǐng)TOP10是呈現(xiàn)上升趨勢(shì)的。不會(huì)下降。
等待結(jié)果期間,可以與招生官保持溝通和交流。 -
我想給你一些學(xué)生自己評(píng)述會(huì)更好一些:
While I was at St. Paul's I participated in many of the club sports (club soccer and club hockey) as well as playing JV Baseball, and JV Football. Additionally, I was the MISH and ECO House Representative for my dorm (Manville). This position required that I provide my peers and house-mates with information about how they could best get involved in the Concord community as well as ensuring that dorm-life was environmentally friendly (shutting lights off, not leaving water running, recycling whenever possible, etc.)
St. Paul's was unique in that it was 100% boarding. Attending a school where absolutely all of the students (and the majority of the staff) reside on the same campus for the entire academic year builds a community of trust, love, and unity. That sense of unity shone through with the large student presence at athletic games and events, theatre productions, dance recitals, and orchestral symphonies as well.Another unique aspect about SPS was morning chapel. Morning chapel was four times a week (Mon. Tue. Thur. Fri.) and students and staff would meet before classes to discuss current events, go over weekly announcements, and listen to guest and student speakers. Many Seniors would take this opportunity to reflect on their past four years as a student and how they have changed as a person. Others would take this chance to discuss changes they would like to see made at the institution and ways of implementing that change. Chapel would always wrap up with the students singing hymnals and commonly reciting the school prayer.
What was the best thing that happened to you in boarding school?
I think the best thing that happened to me at SPS was that I was able to challenge myself in different academic fields and truly discover what interested/motivated me scholastically, and career-wise. I think the fact that we can pick and choose from so many different classes aids students in their quest for self, as it certainly led me towards discovering what I truly like and don't like. I learned that science isn't something I'm necessarily interested in, while I am totally down for the Humanities.
What might you have done differently during your boarding school experience?
I would have been more open and outgoing. In college I had a much easier time transitioning and finding myself in the community (probably thanks to all that I had learned and experienced at SPS), but I wish I had truly landed with my feet running at SPS. My advice would be to challenge yourself to try out new things and don't be afraid to put yourself out there; the community is so welcoming, especially to people that they see are willing to make themselves vulnerable and reveal their true personality and spirit, that they'll undoubtedly embrace you with open arms.
What did you like most about your school?
I liked everything about St. Paul's, and I wouldn't want to repeat my high school experience at any other school. SPS even sent me on a trip to Athens, Greece, which is an experience I doubt I would have had the chance to have at another school. I think the people, the academics, and the experience that SPS has to offer make it such a special place, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to challenge themselves mentally and scholastically.
Do you have any final words of wisdom for visiting or incoming students to your school?
Tuck Shop was always amazing! It was the equivalent of a campus caf???? and boasted an impressive menu of chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and more (I'm sure they had healthy options too, I just wasn't too keen on those as a 14-year-old kid). Definitely check out the chapel, as it is arguably the most beautiful architectural structure on campus and I would even say in Concord, NH.
今年申請(qǐng)非常激烈,因?yàn)楹芏嗝绹?guó)家庭由于疫情要送孩子去私立高中,因?yàn)樗麄儓?jiān)持線下開課。另外大陸和美國(guó)關(guān)系的持續(xù)緊張,也是一個(gè)考量。加上其他國(guó)家特別越南學(xué)生申請(qǐng)數(shù)在提升。所以前10的申請(qǐng)今年是一個(gè)令人揪心一年。
在等候過程中,希望你孩子的活動(dòng)在繼續(xù),成績(jī)有提升,等等有實(shí)質(zhì)性內(nèi)容,也可以繼續(xù)提供,當(dāng)然如果不是實(shí)質(zhì)內(nèi)容,那么你要學(xué)會(huì)耐心等待了。有一個(gè)竅門就是緊緊抓住SPS的學(xué)校學(xué)生POOL,這個(gè)你的招生中介或許更清楚。 -
你好,圣保羅學(xué)校喜歡學(xué)生是出類拔萃,家庭也是精英階層的家庭。此外,今年top 10美高的國(guó)內(nèi)申請(qǐng)人數(shù)呈上升趨勢(shì),原因是大家都想試試,包括有些沒有SSAT成績(jī)的學(xué)員都希望沖刺一下。在等候結(jié)果期間,自身如有update的信息,可以和招生官保持溝通。

您好,圣保羅一般來講喜歡家庭背景和學(xué)生能力同樣出色的學(xué)生。和同級(jí)別的別的學(xué)校相比,圣保羅是顯得比較高冷的,有不少反饋說一部分面試官很嚴(yán)肅,招辦工作人員也不如別的學(xué)校熱情。
今年的申請(qǐng)人數(shù)較往年是上升趨勢(shì)的,主要的原因是因?yàn)榻衲暌咔椋蟛糠謱W(xué)校都test optional的,所以很多學(xué)生就算標(biāo)化不理想,也想試著沖刺名校,導(dǎo)致申請(qǐng)人數(shù)上升。
在等待結(jié)果期間,家長(zhǎng)和學(xué)生的焦慮心情是可以理解的,但是請(qǐng)注意和學(xué)校的溝通要講究方法。如果沒有很重要的更新,請(qǐng)切記不要頻繁騷擾。如果有很重要的更新(例如競(jìng)賽獲獎(jiǎng)等),請(qǐng)第一時(shí)間發(fā)郵件告知學(xué)校,并可以同時(shí)強(qiáng)調(diào)學(xué)生的入學(xué)意愿。如果有更新的成績(jī)單,那么請(qǐng)班主任老師直接發(fā)送給學(xué)校會(huì)更好一些。 -
St. Paul喜歡文科擅長(zhǎng)的學(xué)生,也很看重學(xué)生家庭背景,父母是否也有一定的社會(huì)地位和經(jīng)濟(jì)能力。今年國(guó)內(nèi)什么top10的學(xué)生有增無減,等候期間,如果有什么學(xué)術(shù)或者活動(dòng)上的更新獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng),可以遞交給學(xué)校那邊。
