美國(guó)留學(xué)申請(qǐng)中的個(gè)人陳述是至為重要的一個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)。個(gè)人陳述不僅僅是表達(dá)申請(qǐng)的目的和動(dòng)機(jī)，更是要表達(dá)出申請(qǐng)者自己的想法，下面YJBYS小編為大家講解留學(xué)申請(qǐng)中個(gè)人陳述的寫作要點(diǎn)及禁忌，并附優(yōu)秀范文!

　　留學(xué)申請(qǐng)個(gè)人陳述在寫作時(shí)候應(yīng)該：

　　1、要誠(chéng)實(shí)地寫作。如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)你的讀者能夠從別人那里讀到和你的文章類似的內(nèi)容，那請(qǐng)你回到草稿本從頭再來。

　　2、要在整體上傳達(dá)積極的信息。批判主義不會(huì)獲得招生委員會(huì)的好感。

　　3、要注重文章的深度，而不是廣度。著重一個(gè)事件或想法，而不是對(duì)全部的事情泛泛而談。要進(jìn)行個(gè)性化和故事性的思考。

　　4、要拋棄你的第一個(gè)想法或視角。因?yàn)槟且粋�(gè)往往被太多人想到和使用過。

　　5、要寫得有趣但更要寫出自己。傳達(dá)你真實(shí)的想法和感受。別企圖給自己加上你并不具有的情趣、價(jià)值和觀念。

　　6、要寫那些你親眼看到、親身經(jīng)歷的事情，而不要寫超越你作為一個(gè)年輕人所能經(jīng)歷的事情。書本上的東西和其它的二手經(jīng)驗(yàn)無法告訴你的讀者你是怎樣的人。

　　7、要寫那些你感受強(qiáng)烈的事情。如果你寫自己不感興趣的題目，那么你就會(huì)顯得不真誠(chéng)或缺乏激情。

　　8、要寫你自己，同時(shí)也要寫別人。很大程度上我們的個(gè)體是在和別人的交往過程中被定義的。在你的文章中體現(xiàn)這一點(diǎn)可以使你顯得不那么以自我為中心。

　　9、要寫出你的豐富經(jīng)歷，但是要避免過多的想象�？梢詮木跋蟆⒙曇羯踔翚馕兜雀鞣N角度全方位地將你和你的讀者聯(lián)系起來。但要當(dāng)心別過分使用你的想象力。否則結(jié)果就是顯現(xiàn)一種刻意的、不自然的風(fēng)格，讓你的讀者覺得你是在故作有創(chuàng)意。

　　留學(xué)申請(qǐng)個(gè)人陳述的寫作要注意：

　　1、不要讓別人，特別是你的父母來替你決定該寫什么。你可以和別人一起想點(diǎn)子，但是千萬別問“我該寫什么?”。

　　2、不要試圖推銷你自己，或企圖說服或證明你有多棒、多聰明或多有成就。你的終極理論或?qū)κ澜鐔栴}的解決方案并不能打動(dòng)讀者。你必須承認(rèn)，在你人生目前的階段，你的疑問比你知道的答案要多。讓你的文章給你自己一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)去思考生活，去提出有思想的問題，然后去探究和調(diào)查，而不是去告訴讀者結(jié)論。(這一條更加適合申請(qǐng)本科的高中生)

　　3、不要把申請(qǐng)信寫成一篇學(xué)術(shù)文章。一篇能夠炫耀你在某一個(gè)領(lǐng)域經(jīng)過調(diào)研的學(xué)術(shù)文章并不能告訴你的讀者你是誰，反而會(huì)讓他們懷疑這是不是你以前的某篇學(xué)期論文。

　　4、不要去猜測(cè)招生委員會(huì)希望你寫什么內(nèi)容。這種思路的結(jié)果會(huì)是一篇沒有差錯(cuò)但是卻很平庸的文章。

　　5、不要贅述讀者已經(jīng)知道的東西。別再三強(qiáng)調(diào)那些在申請(qǐng)材料的其它部分已經(jīng)提到的你的一些成就。

　　6、不要顯得過于理想化。世界的和平和干凈的環(huán)境確實(shí)是值得追求的理想，但是不要顯得教條和過于狂熱。任何事情都有兩面，所以請(qǐng)全面地考慮問題，否則會(huì)顯得過于天真。

　　7、不要把你的申請(qǐng)信浪費(fèi)在解釋你的缺點(diǎn)或不足上。一次低分、一個(gè)難看的SAT成績(jī)或乏善可陳的課余活動(dòng)都不值得在申請(qǐng)信中加以解釋。如果你必須要為你的某個(gè)不足辯護(hù)，請(qǐng)打電話(匿名地)到學(xué)校詢問你是否可以附加一份獨(dú)立的解釋作為你申請(qǐng)材料的附件。另一種選擇是，請(qǐng)你的推薦人在推薦信中為你澄清。

　　8、不要寫任何會(huì)讓你的讀者感到尷尬或不舒服的內(nèi)容。談?wù)撘恍┟舾械膯栴}，諸如吸毒、性、宗教信仰或政治觀點(diǎn)并沒有錯(cuò)。但務(wù)必小心，避免極端化并使用尊敬的語調(diào)，否則你可能把事情搞砸。

　　9、不要把申請(qǐng)信寫成一篇社論。學(xué)校歡迎你的見解，但是別像站在演講臺(tái)上那樣，對(duì)其它觀點(diǎn)進(jìn)行大肆抨擊。

　　10、不要提及哪怕是一點(diǎn)流行的電視電影、歌手或演員，哪怕他們對(duì)你很重要。另外，不要提及Dr.Suess的書(招生辦公室的廢止簍里每年秋天都塞滿了提及Dr.Suess的申請(qǐng)信)(Dr.Suess是美國(guó)著名的作家和漫畫家，曾獲得普利策和奧斯卡獎(jiǎng)，影響了美國(guó)幾代青少年)。

　　優(yōu)秀范文

　　Ten years from now Tim Dickson won't even remember my name. The unknowing recipient of my undying love for two years, Tim had been everything a girl could ever ask for: smart, handsome, witty, and athletic, with a voice that could make angels weep. Everyone knew his name. To a shy little country mouse, nearly invisible in our student body, he was the epitome of manliness. I sat in my corner of room C-119 and gazed adoringly at his profile as he amazed the class of Modern World History with his dashing style. Carefully planning the routes to my classes to coincide with his, I was his silent shadow.

　　After fourteen months, contrary to my hopes, Tim still was not aware of my existence. Determined to bring myself to his attention, I staged my entrance to his heart with all the flair I could muster. I would breach his defenses at the next history oral presentation in the guise of the dashing Cardinal Richelieu.

　　It was now or never! Striding into the classroom, my head raised, eyes flashing, I stood proudly, the colors of my eighteenth-century costume catching the light and giving me courage. My opening line shook with tight emotion. "Gentlemen, I am disgusted!" My voice alternately lashed out in rage and purred in soft persuasion. I gloried in my elocution. Each word was power. My voice rose to a brilliant conclusion, and I stood with my arms outstretched and my head bowed in submission.

　　Dead silence.

　　My left knee trembled uncontrollably. Why did no one speak? My hands began to shake so I pulled them behind me-like one condemned. My eyes gauged the distance to the door.

　　Then someone began to clap. More joined in. Tim looked into my eyes and smiled. He smiled!

　　Joy, oh joy. My soul overflowed with rapture. I had done it! He noticed me! All the shame, all the worry, and all the castigation melted away in that moment. I knew how to make him love me. I simply had to speak better, sing better, act better, and write better than anyone else. Determined, I joined competitions, played in concerts, and wrote essays that were read in class. When Tim transferred to the A.P. class, so did I. I threw myself into class discussions, attempting to dazzle him with my intelligence and intrepidity. Making friends with his friends, I dogged his steps.

　　The next summer Tim moved away. I never heard from him again. But the transformation in me had taken place. Now I was involved for the simple pleasure of being involved. Challenging people surrounded me. Biff taught me to love. Dave taught me to laugh. Ramez taught me to break my limits. Alit gave me confidence. Whenever I was in danger of reverting to a wallflower, one of my new friends would drag me into another club or activity.
