校园日活动:24小时的双向选择
来自中国32个省级行政区、通过初审的约600名高中生,参加了上海纽约大学于3月份举行的四场校园日活动。学校主要通过模拟课堂、英文写作、团队活动、个别面谈等环节,全面评价学生各方面综合能力和素质,选拔最适合上海纽约大学培养目标和培养理念的学生。
校园日活动是上海纽约大学首创的招生环节,于每年春节后举行。在24小时的活动中,同学们除了可以接受学校的全面考察和评价,还有机会深入体验上纽大的课堂氛围,参观学校各种教学设施,并与在校学生交流学习生活、社团活动等各方面的信息。在评价过程中,学校把关注重点放在学生的“匹配度”上,即是否适合上海纽约大学的培养理念、培养目标和培养模式,而不以高考成绩的高低作为唯一标准衡量和评价学生。
上海纽约大学中方招生办主任周鸿表示:“校园日活动独特的选拔模式,可以发现每位申请者的潜能和优势所在,找到真正适合上海纽约大学的学生,这是传统的评价模式做不到的。”
“从第一届和第二届学生的就业和升学情况可以发现,在校园日活动上表现出色的学生,经过上海纽约大学四年学习后,都会成长为被各大知名企业和高等学府争相追逐的具有全球领袖素质的人才,”周鸿说。
随着招生人数的增长,今年,上海纽约大学也将增加中国新生奖学金的发放数量。奖学金主要根据学生在校园日活动中的表现,以及申请材料等进行综合评定。
周鸿还谈及今年2月公布的上海纽约大学2017届毕业生就业质量报告。无论是进入名企工作,或是前往全球顶级高校深造的人数和比例,261名首届毕业生所取得的成绩,已获得社会各界的普遍赞赏。
上海纽约大学招生办主任Katie Korhonen表示,校园日活动不仅是为了衡量学生的英语水平,也是在考察他们是否适合加入上纽大,成为大家庭中的一员,“我们鼓励学生充分利用校园日活动的这24小时,并借此来衡量上纽大是否符合心中理想大学的标准。”
就国际招生方面,Korhonen介绍说,上海纽约大学计划从来自全球11200份申请中择优录取2022届国际学生。“通过第一批和第二批提前录取,我们已经录取了一半的国际学生。录取结果将陆续发布,学生最迟将于5月初收到录取通知。”
所有申请就读上海纽约大学的学生,均须填写、提交通用申请(Common Application),并按招生方案规定递交其他有关材料。对国际学生来说,其所在地区的招生负责人会对申请材料进行评估。所有收到录取通知的国际学生在作出最终决定前,将受邀参观访问上海纽约大学。

A Weekend Discovering
NYU Shanghai
A total of 600 high school students from 32 provincial regions across China took part in a weekend of sample lectures, writing exercises, group activities and personal interviews at NYU Shanghai.
Candidate Weekend, part of NYU Shanghai’s pioneering admissions process for Chinese applicants, grants a select group of Chinese high school students a chance to make lasting impressions through group projects and one-on-one interviews over the span of 24 hours ahead of the national college entrance exam (Gaokao) in June. The Gaokao score is only one component of the multi-dimensional assessment for NYU Shanghai candidates.
“Through our unique selection model, we are able to discover the strengths and potential of each candidate that usually cannot be captured in a traditional Chinese evaluation model,” said Zhou Hong, Assistant Dean of Chinese Admissions.
“Our experience over the past five years also shows that students who excelled during Candidate Weekend have all grown into much sought-after global leaders, after four years of study at NYU Shanghai,” Zhou said.
This year, the University is also expanding the volume of its merit-based scholarships, as the student body grows. Scholarships will be distributed based on students’ performance at Candidate Weekend, as well as their overall high school grades and awards.
The University’s first destination report for the school’s inaugural Class of 2017 was released in early February. From landing jobs in top-flight companies, joining an overseas service mission, to earning coveted postgraduate scholarships, 261 graduates from NYU Shanghai’s first class have distinguished themselves across industry sectors and education institutions.
Katie Korhonen, Director of Admissions for NYU Shanghai, said the Candidate Weekend not only assessed the candidates’ English proficiency, but also their fit for the NYU Shanghai community. “Students were challenged to use their time on campus to decide if NYU Shanghai is the best place for them to pursue their undergraduate degrees,” she said.
On the international admissions side, NYU Shanghai is seeking to enroll exceptional non-Chinese students for the Class of 2022 from a pool of 11,200 global applicants, according to Katie.
“We have already enrolled over half of our international student population through Early Decision I and II. Students who applied during the Regular Decision period will receive results by early May, at the latest,” she added.
All prospective students must apply to NYU Shanghai through the Common Application. For international students, applications are assessed by admissions officers in their region before offers are sent out. All accepted international students are then invited to visit NYU Shanghai before committing to a final decision.
