Serving as a student leader for years, I conceive the dream to better understand diversity and inequity in China. Grinnell College caught my eyes with its small student body, and then with the plentiful co-curricular opportunities on campus. The rigorous English curriculum with a literature analysis focus will prepare me for my future career as a columnist. Furthermore, programs like Writers@Grinnell will connect me with seasoned poets and essayists, introducing their myriad perspectives to me. Now I firmly believe that Grinnell can turn me into a responsible adult who can make a difference in her community.

留学文书译文（机翻）：

作为一名学生领袖多年，我的梦想是更好地理解中国的多样性和不平等。格林内尔学院吸引了我的目光，它的学生规模很小，校园里还有大量的课外机会。以文学分析为重点的严格的英语课程将为我未来的专栏作家生涯做好准备。此外Writers@Grinnell将我与经验丰富的诗人和散文家联系起来，向我介绍他们的各种观点。现在，我坚信格林内尔可以把我变成一个负责任的成年人，在她的社区里有所作为。

标化条件：GPA 3.8 TOEFL 104 老SAT 2160

AADPS老师文书点评：对于申请规模较小的美国大学和学院，为了增加录取概率，可以尝试在自身兴趣和专业冷门程度之间找到一个最佳平衡点。

家长感言：ED和EA是找了一个便宜的私人顾问做的，但结果感觉发挥得不是特别理想。在十二月中经孩子同学介绍到AADPS。虽然网传格林内尔对中国学生并不友好，但是老师的实力给了我们信心，最后也顺利得偿所愿了。
