要上語言課？怎樣跟學校argue？

現在階段，幾乎所有小僧都已經拿到offer，商僧首先要恭喜各位了！然鵝也有一些小僧正在為語言課的事兒愁眉不展。「語言課成績不低呀，但是某大學還讓我讀語言課......」「去年我朋友的托福成績比我都低，他都沒有要求讀語言，我怎麼就非得讀呢......」憤懣不解之聲迭起，商僧忍不住要出來發聲啦！

首先解答小僧的疑問，學校每年的錄取要求和標準都不盡相同，所以對於學校要求，小僧們千萬不要對號入座妄自菲薄，溝通是解決問題的唯一辦法。那麼問題來了，要怎麼跟錄委會argue呢？有哪些要點呢？怎樣能夠提升argue成功率呢？首先要注意學校可以waive語言考試或者語言課的條件。如約翰霍普金斯大學明確要求想要免summer intensive program的小僧必須具備以下條件：

①　連續4-6個月跨國公司實習或工作經歷或在英語環境下工作/生活

②　高中階段或大學階段是英文教學，而且在校時間至少四年或者已經從該校畢業。

可以看出來，要滿足以上條件並不容易，但是沒有滿足條件的小僧也可以稍作嘗試，根據學校給出的條件找到學校看重的條件，有目的地同學校談判。

其次要從中總結自己的亮點，尤其是personal statement沒有提到的東西，可以順勢在郵件中推銷一波，貼標籤，立人設不就是綜藝節目更能捧紅明星的原因嗎？

當然不是鼓勵大家造假製造哭點哦，而是說小僧們要明白就是在argue過程中要開門見山告訴錄委會郵件的目的以及自己是一個怎樣與眾不同的申請者；最後就是要對自己給錄委會造成的額外工作量表示感謝，畢竟我們是禮儀之邦呀，這個標籤還是不可以離身的。

以下範例可供小僧參考：

Dear XXX,

Greetings from XXX.

I am thrilled being admitted into XXX University. I am writing to ask if I am qualified to waive the summer intensive program.

With great passion for marketing and six-month internship at XXX Consulting, I have gained proficiency in both marketing analytic tools and communication skills. I strongly believe I will become an outstanding alumna of XXX University.

Furthermore, I am exchanging at XXX University in France, where I was taught in English and achieved excellent scores. My rich international experience and various extra-curriculum activities enhanced my creativity, leadership and global view. Thus, I believe I will complete the master』s degree at your University with exceptional performance.

Anyway, I really appreciate your understanding and effort to review my materials as attached. Look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

XXX

思路很簡單，小僧們重在挖掘自己的亮點，寫郵件一定要了解錄委會希望看到的小僧亮點，否則無的放矢很容易言之無物哦。

除此之外，秉承好人做到底的原則，商僧也幫各位總結了其他argue郵件的思路：

首先是遲遲等不到offer的小僧的福利。不得不說，2018年的申請季的驚喜與等待一樣多呀！拿不到offer的小僧苦苦等待，眼巴巴地望著郵箱，就是刷不出來一封郵件，這種情況下該怎麼辦呢？Argue郵件怎麼寫呢？尤其要注意的是不要讓錄委會有任何你在催促他們的趕腳。

以下範例供小僧們參考：

Dear Admission Officer,

Greetings from XXX. I am writing to update my experience and ask if there is anything I can do to facilitate you review.

Currently, I am working at XXX Co., where I am exposed to a wide of XXX industry expertise. The private equity investment involving industry research, project analysis, due diligence as well as company valuation broadens my horizon. I pride myself in finding prospective company by analyzing the data. However, in the data-driven era, I found more skillsets are necessary for me to further my career path. And XXX degree of XXX University is my best choice.

What』s more, I ascertain to be an outstanding candidate due to my achievement at XXX in Boston and entrepreneurship experience as I have mentioned in my resume and essay. I really appreciate your continued consideration about my application and look forward to getting an interview. If you need more questions about my application, please contect me.

Best,

XXX

最後，商僧也切身感受到小僧們在選擇offer時的糾結與難以抉擇，尤其是在各個學校給結果的時間差上，小僧們主動行動也不是，坐著等待也不是，商僧建議如果學校不錯的話還是要交押金保住offer，同時若想最大程度減損，那麼小僧可以試著給學校argue能否extend the deadline。

以下範例供小僧參考：

Dear XXX Admission Team,

Greetings from XXX. Upon the admission news from XXX, I have been excited and sought ways to explore the program comprehensively so as to better prepare for my career. However, considering the impending deadline to pay for the deposit, I have little time to schedule my academic plan of my graduate study. So I would like to ask if the deadline can be extended by half a month so that I can make full preparation for the Master』s degree. I really appreciate your patience and help.

Best,

XXX

希望以上argue郵件可以幫到各位闊愛的小僧啦！最後提示大家郵件不要太頻繁哦，學校審核大量申請者材料或許已經通宵達旦焚膏繼晷了，我們的連環email可能激怒錄委會導致事倍功半哦！
