美国本科大学申请高危名单--录取率下降,申请困难户
最近几年来申请美国大学的本土和国际高中生不得不面临一个很严峻的问题: 竞争的日益激烈化。
在过去的十年内,全美范围内大学录取率实打实的逐年下降了。造成这个结果的主要原因很简单,高中毕业生的增加,还有国际学生的竞争,所以造就了一个越来越广阔的申请团体,在学校不扩招的情况下,分母的数字无限变大,当然录取率就不断变小。
想成为这个越来越小比例的团体中的一员,当然越发困难。对于国际学生来说,除了美国孩子上大学的人数便多,名额难求,那些在美国以及其他英语国家上高中的中国学生和国际学生更是给大陆留学申请人带来极大的竞争冲击力。所以,在申请时,如何聪明合理的选择院校,平衡排名和专业强项,规避热门风险,就显得非常重要。
今天,美嘉留学总结了过去十年来录取率下降剧烈的25个学校名单,也就是高危院校名单,供大家参考。数据来源于美国国家教育统计中心。学生们在选择院校的时候,应给于他们一级戒备,因为这个名单就等于在告诉你,你即便优秀,但他们没那么容易会录取你。
