美国夏校申请丨“半只脚”踏入藤校的暑期项目！

Telluride  Association为青少年甚至教师们提供了各种各样的适合项目，其中TASP是专为高中学生提供的项目，除此之外，TA还提供针对高二学生的TASS夏校项目。TASP组织者每年会提出不同的人文类主题，将经过严格挑选的来自世界各地的年轻和聪明的学生聚集在一起，共同分享对学习的热情和课题研究过程。所有参与者参加由大学和大学教师导师率领的密集的主题研讨会，并参加课外的许多教育和社会活动。

项目地点：康奈尔大学（2个项目）、马里兰大学和密歇根大学安娜堡分校三个营址

针对人群：高二学生，具有高度人文学科知识储备的同学；以及希望申请美国人文类名校尤其是藤校的潜力股；

费用：学费免费（不包含交通、生活等其他费用）

项目内容：请联系文后育伦留美顾问索取2018TASP项目信息。

TASP项目申请难度不亚于美国名校的申请，甚至筛选度更高， 每一位高中学生都可以通过在线或邮寄材料的方式申请该项目，也可以由教师、辅导员、导师和社区成员提名申请人，TASP项目官方表示这种提名方式并不能代表可以提高录取率。

第三步：面试（据说面试几率大概为10%）及补充成绩单和推荐信；

第四步：录取（小编八卦到的消息2：录取几率6%，不到70人的数量，2018年新增了马里兰大学，估计录取人数会有增加，但应该不会超过100人，中国学生被录取的数量更加有限）；

Essay的回答是TASP录取决定的主要依据。录取小组希望看到深思熟虑的、完整的、简洁的文章，他们评估这些Essay，感知你提出的观点和力量，以及你对复杂问题的分析和批判性思考的能力，希望你能有最好的形式展示作品，但内容对我们来说也很重要。如果你被选中参加TASP，这些观点和内容将会与你的导师和同学们分享。
