随着中国申请者日益增多,文书撰写越发精美,优秀申请者材料非常雷同,学校很难通过原来简单的审核方式判定谁可以被录取。而且美国学校发现往年已经录取学生的自身能力和申请材料中所体现的有差距,只有通过视频这种更直接的方式才能更有效地避免招生不当,所以这两年要求在申请时提交视频的学校越来越多。目前统计的个别文科专业在申请时需要录制视频,它们涵盖了文科类学生经常申请的杜克大学、乔治城大学、纽约大学、波士顿大学、雪城大学、卡耐基梅隆大学等。具体的项目名单如下:
杜克大学的MPP--strongly recommended (强烈建议提交)
乔治城大学的传媒--highly recommended(强烈建议提交)
卡耐基梅隆大学的艺术管理--highly recommended(强烈建议提交)
纽约大学的工业与组织心理学--highly recommended(强烈建议提交)
波士顿大学的传媒--required (必须提交)
波士顿大学的公共关系--required(必须提交)
雪城大学的心理学--required (必须提交)
雪城大学的新媒体管理--required (必须提交)
在申请过程中,雪城大学的新媒体管理(New Media Management)要求学生回答四个专业的小问题,每个问题2-3分钟,共10分钟左右。目前新东方前途出国已经被雪城大学新媒体管理专业录取的W同学回忆了两个问题:生活性的问题一个,介绍两种媒体研究的方法等另外两个问题。
乔治城大学的传媒专业的视频录制要求学生逐一回答五个问题,具体要求如下:
1 While the CCT admissions committee is familiar with your application personal statement, we would still like to know you better. This video statement/presentation is a way for you to uniquely express yourself and tell us more about who you are outside of what your application may tell us. This video is your opportunity to express yourself in a manner outside of the text-based application.
2 The Communication, Culture and Technology (CCT) Master of Arts program explores the relationship between changing technology and changing cultures, including research, government, media, business, and communication. Please tell us how you feel you would contribute to this academic and professional community?
3 The CCT program offers what we term as core clusters. Course clusters are designed to give students an overview of what CCT offers and to provide ideas for grouping courses in your area(s) of interest. The course clusters include: * Cultural Studies * Globalization Studies * Art, Media & Representation * Media and Politics * Technology & Society * Technology, Business & the Economy * Technology, Information & Innovation Policy Which clusters would you most closely identify with (you may choose more than one) and what type of research topics would you like to explore while at CCT?
4 Why do you want to come to CCT instead of another graduate program? And what makes you qualified/a good fit for CCT? And how is CCT a good fit for your own academic and professional goals?
5 Upon graduation from CCT, where would you want to take your degree? What do you see yourself doing after graduation and how do you see CCT helping you get there?
目前很多学校要求录制视频的问题涉及面比较广,如专业认识、选校原因、未来规划等。问题的回答需要申请者具备很强的逻辑思维能力,而且在视频录制中需要语言润色、场景转换、动画添加等,以此来展现申请者的优势。视频上传的方式和要求很多样,一般有长度,存储格式和文件大小的限制。
在录制视频的过程中,尽量保持画面和声音清晰并一定程度的运用动画效果。多进行几次场景的转换,让录取委员会老师有继续看的想法。视频录制是一次向录取委员会很好地展示自己的机会,一定好从着装,场景,语音,语调,逻辑思维能力,语言组织能力等不同的角度来充分地展示自己,让录取委员会对自己有一个更加立体的了解。相信一个好的视频展示,定会给自己的申请增色不少
