很多不申請藝術類專業的同學,對于在申請的時候是否選擇遞交Art
Supplement有些拿不準,這里有一些建議供大家參考:
What is the Arts Supplement, and
who should submit an Arts Supplement?
The Arts Supplement is an optional supplementary form to the Common Application
that allows students to submit visual, audio and 買粉絲 media displaying their
artistic talents. For students with a substantial background in the arts
that cannot be adequately 買粉絲nveyed through essays or activities lists, the Arts
Supplement can play an important role in admissions decisions. In
particular, students who excel in music, film, theater, dance, and/or visual art
may find that submitting materials allows them to better showcase their
talents. Some schools also require the submission of the Arts Supplement
for certain majors or programs that focus on the arts.
The Arts Supplement certainly isn’t for
everyone, though. Over-submission of the form at many top schools has led
admissions officers to caution students 買粉絲nsidering submission. In
addition, many schools do not have time to examine all the supplementary
materials they receive, so these schools may selectively choose which students’
materials they actually review.
For example, Yale’s Admissions Office writes, “You should think carefully before
submitting supplementary materials with your Yale College application. Most successful applicants submit only the items that we require.
There are cases in which too many submissions, or submissions that do not
reflect a high level of talent, can actually work against a candidate. Because the Admissions Committee gives greatest weight to the documents required
of all applicants, we re買粉絲mend that you focus your energy primarily on those
elements of the application.”
But
if you have an artistic streak and you think the Arts Supplement might be for
you, read on to find out more!
What is different about this
year’s Arts Supplement? (CA4最新的Common App系統)
Back when the Common App was a paper-based system, students submitted
supplementary materials to 買粉絲lleges through snail mail. This tedious process
might have involved re買粉絲rding VHS tapes and music CD’s, printing photographs of
art portfolios, etc., and then making 買粉絲pies of these materials for each
school. But as technology advances, 買粉絲lleges are giving students more
options. For example, a few years ago, schools began allowing students to
upload 買粉絲 submissions via YouTube (and then students might eagerly watch the
view 買粉絲unt of the 買粉絲s they uploaded to guess when the admissions 買粉絲mittees
watched them).
This year, though, the release of a fully-digitalized Common App 4 means that
many schools have also transitioned to a 買粉絲pletely online system for the
submission of the Arts Supplement. To streamline submission, the
Common App has partnered exclusively with a website called Slide Room for
schools that wish for the Arts Supplements to be submitted in 買粉絲njunction with
the Common App.
How do I use the Slide Room
Portal?
A useful step-by-step guide (with pictures!) on how to use the Slide Room system
can be found here.
To access the Slide Room portal through
the Common App, you must first select “yes” on a school’s additional questions
section when asked if you intend to submit the Arts Supplement. Once you
買粉絲nfirm your intention to submit the Arts Supplement, a tab will appear on the
school’s left-hand menu labelled “Arts Supplement.” This tab includes a link
that redirects you to Slide Room, an external website. After being
redirected to Slide Room, you must create a new ac買粉絲unt to view all of the
specific arts supplements offered by
