美国留学申请|视频文书 (Video Essay)常见问题

美国大学申请是一项复杂而繁重的工作，当所有申请者开始绞尽脑汁地策划和创作那些刁钻费解的文书并被虐得死去活来的时候，越来越多的名校开始要求学生提交Video Essay (视频文书)。

随着申请的激烈竞争，很多申请者享受到了Video Essay带来的帮助。它的异军突起，更加突出了西方高校“不以GPA以及语言考试分数作为唯一恒定标准”的准则，毕竟每个个体都是不同的，都是有差异性的，它无疑为展示这些差异性与独特性提供了一个绝佳的平台。

什么是 Video Essay
Video Essay (视频文书) 又称机面，不同于常规的“in-person interview”(即人面)，可以理解为一个“自我介绍”性质的短视频，是一种给招生官展现自我的方式，对申请者的应变能力要求较高。

Video Essay 每题只给申请者极短的准备时间，并要求在时间范围内作答。通常情况下，每一次的Video Essay都会随机抽取3个问题，每个问题只有1次回答机会。
