    您好,圣保罗录取的学生是比较多样,学校喜欢学生有自己独特的一面,有自己的想法,主动性,自律性要比较好,同时抗压性也要够好。另外,学校比较重视人文课程,喜欢人文类课程的学生更能在学校获得更多资源。中国这边录取的学生里面有的有体育特长,有的有音乐特长等,整体录取的学生是非常优秀的。

    另外,从我们目前和学校的沟通以及学生的申请来看,今年TOP10枚高并没有明显下降趋势,不少学校反馈整体国际学生申请数量下降,但是美国孩子的申请数量上升了,所以整体竞争还是很激烈的,而不少学生会因为SSAT 的可选原则,可能会有更多学生想去冲刺下前十。

    在等候期间,如果孩子有明显的进展或者完成具体项目的话,可以跟学校进行汇报跟进,但如果没有太多比较有意义的进展,不建议频繁给学校发邮件,耐心等待会更好一点。

    我想给你一些学生自己评述会更好一些:
    While I was at St. Paul's I participated in many of the club sports (club soccer and club hockey) as well as playing JV Baseball, and JV Football. Additionally, I was the MISH and ECO House Representative for my dorm (Manville). This position required that I provide my peers and house-mates with information about how they could best get involved in the Concord community as well as ensuring that dorm-life was environmentally friendly (shutting lights off, not leaving water running, recycling whenever possible, etc.)

    St. Paul's was unique in that it was 100% boarding. Attending a school where absolutely all of the students (and the majority of the staff) reside on the same campus for the entire academic year builds a community of trust, love, and unity. That sense of unity shone through with the large student presence at athletic games and events, theatre productions, dance recitals, and orchestral symphonies as well.Another unique aspect about SPS was morning chapel. Morning chapel was four times a week (Mon. Tue. Thur. Fri.) and students and staff would meet before classes to discuss current events, go over weekly announcements, and listen to guest and student speakers. Many Seniors would take this opportunity to reflect on their past four years as a student and how they have changed as a person. Others would take this chance to discuss changes they would like to see made at the institution and ways of implementing that change. Chapel would always wrap up with the students singing hymnals and commonly reciting the school prayer.

    What was the best thing that happened to you in boarding school?
    I think the best thing that happened to me at SPS was that I was able to challenge myself in different academic fields and truly discover what interested/motivated me scholastically, and career-wise. I think the fact that we can pick and choose from so many different classes aids students in their quest for self, as it certainly led me towards discovering what I truly like and don't like. I learned that science isn't something I'm necessarily interested in, while I am totally down for the Humanities.

    What might you have done differently during your boarding school experience?
    I would have been more open and outgoing. In college I had a much easier time transitioning and finding myself in the community (probably thanks to all that I had learned and experienced at SPS), but I wish I had truly landed with my feet running at SPS. My advice would be to challenge yourself to try out new things and don't be afraid to put yourself out there; the community is so welcoming, especially to people that they see are willing to make themselves vulnerable and reveal their true personality and spirit, that they'll undoubtedly embrace you with open arms.

    What did you like most about your school?
    I liked everything about St. Paul's, and I wouldn't want to repeat my high school experience at any other school. SPS even sent me on a trip to Athens, Greece, which is an experience I doubt I would have had the chance to have at another school. I think the people, the academics, and the experience that SPS has to offer make it such a special place, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to challenge themselves mentally and scholastically.

    Do you have any final words of wisdom for visiting or incoming students to your school?
    Tuck Shop was always amazing! It was the equivalent of a campus café and boasted an impressive menu of chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and more (I'm sure they had healthy options too, I just wasn't too keen on those as a 14-year-old kid). Definitely check out the chapel, as it is arguably the most beautiful architectural structure on campus and I would even say in Concord, NH.

    今年申请非常激烈,因为很多美国家庭由于疫情要送孩子去私立高中,因为他们坚持线下开课。另外大陆和美国关系的持续紧张,也是一个考量。加上其他国家特别越南学生申请数在提升。所以前10的申请今年是一个令人揪心一年。

    在等候过程中,希望你孩子的活动在继续,成绩有提升,等等有实质性内容,也可以继续提供,当然如果不是实质内容,那么你要学会耐心等待了。有一个窍门就是紧紧抓住SPS的学校学生POOL,这个你的招生中介或许更清楚。

    你好家长,我一一回答:
    1. 圣保罗首先偏文,其次喜欢有运动特长的学生。从过往送到圣保罗的学生而言(美国的和国际的)相当一部分很有背景,但也有少数普通一些的。个别招生官的面试并不友好,要抗住压力。
    2. 这个我还没有大数据,据我个人跟体制内的招办人员,校长等同仁的交流以及相对于去年同期帮助的学生数量而言,似乎没有下降。
    3. 这个沟通因人、因校而异,如有新的成绩等即使给学校更新,这是最基本的,还有就是要了解每个学校招办内的具体做决定的人员,录取委员会成员等等因素进行适时适当的沟通。

    圣保罗喜欢的学生一般都是精英家庭,他们希望录取的学生也都是本身优秀的,父母是优秀的。如果学校需要,他们可以做出贡献。有一些招生官面试并不友好,今年我们一个学生面试的时候,就说了招生官不友好。但是不管招生官友好不友好,自己还是要做最好的自己。

    今年中国申请TOP10是呈现上升趋势的。不会下降。

    等待结果期间,可以与招生官保持沟通和交流。

    你好,圣保罗学校喜欢学生是出类拔萃,家庭也是精英阶层的家庭。此外,今年top 10美高的国内申请人数呈上升趋势,原因是大家都想试试,包括有些没有SSAT成绩的学员都希望冲刺一下。在等候结果期间,自身如有update的信息,可以和招生官保持沟通。

    您好,圣保罗一般来讲喜欢家庭背景和学生能力同样出色的学生。和同级别的别的学校相比,圣保罗是显得比较高冷的,有不少反馈说一部分面试官很严肃,招办工作人员也不如别的学校热情。
    今年的申请人数较往年是上升趋势的,主要的原因是因为今年疫情,大部分学校都test optional的,所以很多学生就算标化不理想,也想试着冲刺名校,导致申请人数上升。
    在等待结果期间,家长和学生的焦虑心情是可以理解的,但是请注意和学校的沟通要讲究方法。如果没有很重要的更新,请切记不要频繁骚扰。如果有很重要的更新(例如竞赛获奖等),请第一时间发邮件告知学校,并可以同时强调学生的入学意愿。如果有更新的成绩单,那么请班主任老师直接发送给学校会更好一些。

    St. Paul喜欢文科擅长的学生,也很看重学生家庭背景,父母是否也有一定的社会地位和经济能力。今年国内什么top10的学生有增无减,等候期间,如果有什么学术或者活动上的更新奖项,可以递交给学校那边。

    几位老师提到了SPS面试官,我们确实体验也一般。面试官迟到了十几分钟,也没有半句歉意。对付了几个问题就“准时结束”了面试。感觉高傲。相比其他几位同样是top的面试体验差了不少。
