麻省理工学院(Massachusetts Institute of Technology)，简称麻省理工(MIT)，坐落于美国马萨诸塞州剑桥市(大波士顿地区)，是世界著名私立研究型大学。麻省理工学院为世界培养了无数的优秀人才，一直以来也积极的招收优秀的国际学生。那么国际学生应该如何申请麻省理工学院呢?下面和出国留学网一起来看看吧。
If you are an international student, you may not be familiar with the application process for American colleges, including MIT. This is a quick overview to help you understand how applying to an American school like MIT works. Some of the information in here is also true for American colleges other than MIT, but you should make sure to check with other schools before applying since we can't speak for them!
如果你是一名国际学生，那么对于美国大学的申请流程可能并不是很熟悉，包括麻省理工学院。下面概述了一些帮助你理解如何申请美国学校的信息，例如麻省理工学院。一些信息对于申请美国大学或许是可行的，但是对于麻省理工学院或许不是，但是在你申请之前，应该与其他学校联系好，了解更多相关的信息。
Am I International?
MIT considers any student who does not hold US citizenship or permanent residency to be an international applicant, regardless of where you live or attend school. US Permanent Residents are those students who have an official copy of their Green Card in hand. If you are in the process of obtaining a Green Card, then you are considered by MIT to be an international student. If you are an American citizen or permanent resident, then you are considered a domestic applicant; however, if you have lived for long periods of time outside the United States, some of this information may still be helpful to orient you in the process.
我是否是一名国际学生?
麻省理工学院认为没有美国国籍或者永久居民身份的所有学生都是国际申请者，不论你居住在哪里，或者是在哪里上学。美国永久居民是指持有绿卡的正式复印件的学生。如果你还在获得绿卡的过程中，那么麻省理工学院认为你仍然属于一名国际学生。如果你是一名美国公民或者是永久居民，那么你属于国内申请者;但是如果你长时间的居住在美国之外的地方，这些信息可能依然对于你了解申请过程是很有帮助的。
When To Apply
Most US students apply to MIT at the beginning of their final year of high school, and international applicants should do the same. Only accepted students are required to send final grades, and we understand that they will not be available until the summer months. Most applicants are 17-19 years of age. Some may be younger, especially if they have studied ahead; some may be older, especially if their countries have mandatory military service after secondary school.
Students who have already enrolled at another university - either in America or abroad - must apply to MIT as a transfer student.
什么时间开始申请?
大部分的美国学生在高中最后一年开始的时候申请麻省理工学院，国际学生也应该如此。只有被麻省理工学院录取的学生才需要递交最终的考试成绩，并且我们也理解直到夏季之前，最终考试成绩都不会出来。大部分的申请者都是17-19岁，一些可能会更年轻，尤其他们如果开始学习的比较早的话;一些申请者也可能会年龄偏大，尤其是当他们的原籍国在中学之后有强制性的服兵役要求的话。
已经在另外的大学登记的学生——在美国或者其他国家——必须作为一名转学生申请麻省理工学院。
How MIT Considers International Applicants
MIT receives many applications from very smart and talented international citizens. From this great pool of candidates, we may only take a small cupful. Every year more than 4,000 international students apply to MIT, and we can admit fewer than 150.
We limit the number of international students we can accept because of our generous financial aid. MIT is one of the few schools in the US that offers need-blind admissions and meets their full financial need. "Need-blind" means you will not be disadvantaged in the admissions process because of your financial need. "Meeting your full financial need" means MIT will give you enough financial aid so that you can afford to attend, no matter how much or how little your family can pay.
Even though the international application process is very competitive, we still admit wonderful students from all over the world every year. There are students from 116 countries at MIT. Approximately 9% of our undergraduates are international, and 40% of graduate students are citizens of other countries. There is a strong international community here at MIT, so no matter how far you are from home, you can still feel at home here.
麻省理工学院如何评估国际申请者?
麻省理工学院从小部分的有天赋的国际学生中招收更多的申请者。面对如此众多的候选人，麻省理工学院只挑选了小部分。每一年都有超过4,000名的国际学生申请麻省理工学院，但是我们招收的人数却少于150人。
麻省理工学院限制所招收的国际学生的数量，原因在于慷慨的经济资助。麻省理工学院是美国为数不多的提供资金需求盲性录取政策，并且满足学生全部的经济需要的学校之一。资金需求盲性录取政策意味着你不会因为经济需求在招生过程中受到任何的不利影响。满足你所有的经济需求意味着麻省理工学院会给你足够的经济援助，这样你就可以负担起自己的留学费用，不论你的家庭可以为你承担多少。
即使国际学生的入学申请相当激烈，我们每一年仍然从全世界各个地方录取了很多优秀的学生。麻省理工学院有来自全世界116个国家的学生，大约9%的本科学生都是国际学生，40%的研究生学生是其他国家的公民。在麻省理工学院有一个非常强大的国际社区，这样无论你离家多远，你都可以体会到家的温暖。
What You Need To Do
To apply to MIT, you must take some standardized tests and complete our application. Due to capacity issues only a limited number of interviews are available in some regions outside the US. If you live outside the US and your interview is initially waived, you will be notified if an interviewer becomes available. Requesting an interview will not ensure that you will receive an interview. If it is not possible to provide an interview for you, we will not hold it against you.
你需要做什么?
申请麻省理工学院，你必须参加一些标准化考试，并且完成麻省理工学院的整个入学申请过程。因为能力问题，麻省理工学院只在美国之外的一些区域提供少量名额的面试。如果你生活在美国之外的地方，并且你的面试最初豁免的话，如果有另外的面试机会，麻省理工学院会通知你。申请面试不会保证你一定获得面试机会。如果你没有获得面试机会的话，我们不会因此而拒绝你的入学申请。
