After understanding the general situation of American universities, you may still not know where to start. Before you officially confirm the school list, it is very necessary to understand the school's ranking and overview the school information. We recommend three columns that you must browse:
USNEWS American University Rankings
Princeton Review US University Rankings
US University List
August: Finalize your favorite 10-15 schools.
School selection is the most important part of the entire application process. You need to comprehensively evaluate many factors such as your own conditions, geographical location, tuition fees, school grade, school requirements, etc., and select 30 universities from hundreds of universities. School, as your final big list of schools to apply to.
Maybe it is easy for some people to choose a school. They can make a large EXCEL sheet, put in some basic information about the school, and make a comprehensive comparison to filter out the schools that they "want" and "can" apply to. Here I quote previous experience:
The contents of the EXCEL table include: basic information about the school, required application materials, SAT, TOEFL or IELTS score requirements, GPA score requirements, application deadline, contact person and Basic application information such as their contact information, with special attention highlighted. Finally, 10-15 schools were identified and divided into three levels: guaranteed schools, realistic schools, and challenge schools.
You may feel dizzy if you read school information every day. In between, you can do three things to calm your nerves:
The first one: If you have no extracurricular activities ahead of you energy, then hurry up! ! Use the time when you have no homework during the summer vacation to participate in some social practice, volunteer work, etc., and finally add some materials for your ESSAY writing.
The second thing: Find suitable and powerful recommenders and contact them.
The third thing: apply for a credit card, a passport, and prepare some deposits at home. Be prepared for the specific application work that follows.
September and October: The most important work is ESSAY writing! !
Many students have this concept about documents: after they have finished writing the draft of the document, they have to let all their classmates, relatives, and friends read it all, and even ask netizens to help revise it. A document cannot be revised more than a few times. Ten times. It seems that this is the only way to write an essay, and only in this way can I have the atmosphere of applying to an American university. Actually this is wrong. Taisha Consulting guides clients to write thousands of documents every year, and no two documents are the same. See what kind of experience Taisha consultants can tell you.

After reading this article, if you still don’t know how to start, there is another way, which is to look at other people’s examples first. The Too Silly Essay Channel has prepared many ESSAY applications from previous students. You can refer to them. But be sure not to copy them. In addition to examples, the essay channel has also compiled some school ESSAY writing requirements. No matter what your experience is, it is very, very important to understand school writing. The so-called "know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger", so that every ESSAY is targeted. You need to know: applying for undergraduate ESSAY is 50% important! ! !
The undergraduate ESSAY is different from the graduate PS. The requirements of each school are different, and some schools will also require 2-3 ESSAYs. Let’s plan the workload:
15 schools × 2 articles = 30 articles
Writing one article in two days, and the articles are different, this workload is not small! ! You will find that the two months are really stressful.
Even if you are nervous, you should try your best to ensure that all school documents are finalized before October 31st! !
So far, you can still modify your school selection list, and you can make final considerations and considerations based on your ESSAY preparation. When filling out the online application form, be sure not to change your mind on the spot. The decisions people make in stressful situations are often not correct.
In addition to the most important task of ESSAY, all other application materials must be prepared within these two months. The list of materials you need to prepare is as follows:
1. High school transcripts (in Chinese and English, one set for each school)
2. Letters of recommendation (generally 2 letters of recommendation are enough, print 15 copies, each copy must be signed by the recommender)
3. Certificate of enrollment or degree certificate (Chinese and English)
4. Resume (English)
5. Bank deposit certificate (must be original, You can go to the bank to apply)
6. Credit card (must be VISA or MASTER dual currency card, many banks can apply for it)
November: The most important task is to fill out the online application Table
Nowadays, almost all American universities can apply through the online system, which is commonly known as "online application". Although the online application requires each applicant to provide the most basic information, this is also the most basic part of whether you can get the attention of the school. Don’t underestimate filling in these information forms. A little mistake will make you All the previous efforts were in vain...

Apple tips:
The online application system does not allow you to apply all year round , only open during March-April during the application season. When the deadline is reached, the school will close the online application system and stop receiving materials.
December: Mailing paper application materials
Deadline, a term you must have heard, is the deadline for mailing materials. If the school does not specify in the application deadline that the application is postmarked, you should generally ensure that the materials arrive at the school before the deadline. If you don't know how long it will take to mail, you can ask the postal company. Sending materials is also a relatively easy part to make mistakes. You must be careful and check carefully before you put the materials into the large envelope. Never send materials from school A to school B.

January and February: Practice oral conversations to prepare for interviews at the school
There are very few posts about interviews in all study abroad forums, which does not mean The absence of this link does not mean that this link is unimportant. First, let’s spread some common sense about interviews: Undergraduate interviews are generally divided into several categories: AO interviews, alumni interviews, and assistant interviews. From another perspective, it can be divided into extensive interviews, selective interviews, FINAL LIST interviews, and CONFIRMATION interviews.
If you have been to an education exhibition to introduce information, you will also come across the word "interview". "This interview" is not "that interview". The interview at the education fair is just a meeting with the staff of your school or even the representative of the school's representative office in China. They introduce each other's situation and leave their contact information. The person you meet cannot have the right to "admit you" or "admit you". "I won't admit you", but this interview in January or February may decide your fate.

March-May: Receive Admission Letter
During this period, admission notices will arrive one after another. Carefully read all documents, letters, and emails you receive. Some schools require you to make a decision or reaction by a specified date, otherwise it will be considered an automatic abandonment.
If you have decided on the school you want to go to, fill out the admission form and return it to the school with the deposit check. Most schools require students to make a final decision before May 1st, otherwise your admission will no longer be valid. At the same time, you should also send letters to those schools that you have received admission notices but have decided not to go to, politely thank them for admitting you, and tell you that you will go to another school.
Reject your admission offer early so that the school can consider applicants on the waitlist early. If you are waitlisted, don't be discouraged; stay in contact with the admissions office staff, tell them you still have a strong interest in their school, await their decision, and add your most recent transcript with the date you attended. various activities to help them get to know you better and gain the last chance.
