The five hundred and thirteenth chapter admission conditions
Although Americans usually laugh and joke, they are very old-fashioned in many things and must act in accordance with regulations. This is especially true for universities with more than a hundred years of tradition. No one dares to challenge those seemingly "outdated" systems.
, many foreigners always laugh at the modifications they don’t understand, but Liu Lang admires this tradition very much, because it shows their respect for the law, and those countries that always want to make modifications always make changes, and in the end the law fails.
The provisions on paper cannot be implemented.
"Professor Ding, you have done a lot for me. Thank you so much. Whether I can get into Stanford University depends on my ability, but I have enough confidence!"
Liu Lang smiled.
"I also have enough confidence in you, but now, Liu Lang, you are a shareholder of Nike, so you should be very rich, and Mr. Knight is also a donor to Stanford University. There is a way to save you from taking the exam.
You can also become a student at Stanford University, here are the admissions instructions, you can take a look!"
Professor Ding Huaizhong handed Liu Lang a small manual.
"illustrate!"
Liu Lang took it and flipped through a few pages, which recorded the details of Stanford University's admissions, such as how many points are scored in the annual exam, what conditions students need to meet, etc., as well as the conditions for obtaining honorary titles, such as honorary bachelor's degree and honorary master's degree.
There are also requirements for honorary doctorates, and at most honorary professors. Of course, these conditions are also very demanding and can only be obtained by those who have made great academic achievements.
At the end, there are several special circumstances, the first of which is that donors who donate two million US dollars can have a quota to apply for undergraduate or graduate students. This quota also needs to be recognized by several professors in related majors, but the conditions
It is much more relaxed. Generally speaking, a degree from an ordinary university in the United States is enough.
Again, as long as you have money in the United States, you can do many things that ordinary people cannot do. Of course, this does not mean that you can do whatever you want if you have money. At least there is a certain bottom line, and this bottom line will also be guaranteed.
Yes, this is also a good way to "collect money", but even so, you can afford two million US dollars.
There are not many people. Even if they can afford it, I'm afraid not many people can donate to Stanford University for free. Perhaps only those billionaires will be indifferent to two million US dollars, but how many descendants of such rich people can?
Should you settle down and study hard? Therefore, this offer is just a write-in, and only a few people can pass it every year.
"Liu Lang, if you donate two million U.S. dollars to Stanford University, plus Mr. Knight's recommendation, then you won't have any problems!"
Professor Ding Huaizhong said.
"Two million U.S. dollars? Professor Ding, these policies are prepared by Stanford University for those rich people. As for me, I am not a rich person. Maybe two million U.S. dollars can be collected, but that would be too much, so I still choose
Let’s do this!”
Liu Lang pointed to the next item, which was the policy on special enrollment.
Professor Ding Huaizhong nodded. In fact, it was expected that Liu Lang would choose this option. After all, he was one of the best geniuses in the world. He went to college at the age of three and participated in the World Intelligence Olympics at the age of four and won the championship in three subjects of the youth group.
Every genius has extremely inflated self-confidence, not to mention that Liu Lang can't find any opponents in his country. It can be said that it is smooth sailing, so he skips the universities that can send students to the university and directly chooses to challenge the top universities in the United States.
University.
Ding Huaizhong believed that Liu Lang already had the academic ability to graduate, but he still had no confidence that he could pass the special admissions process because the admissions process was so difficult that it would not be an exaggeration to call it the most stringent admissions process at Stanford University.
"Liu Lang, you are very confident. Of course, you also have such strength. In fact, considering your age of only six years old and your achievements in the Olympics, Stanford University is also very interested in you, but rules are rules after all.
No matter how great your achievements are, you still have to pass extremely strict examinations to become a graduate student at Stanford.
The exam is divided into two stages. The first is the basic exam. The manual clearly states that you must choose at least two of the four subjects of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and reading ability. Reading ability is a required option. These two subjects must be
You must achieve an A+ score to qualify for the interview. Based on your ability, there should be no problem with this exam. Then the most important thing is the interview exam. Eleven professional professors will participate in this exam, and each of them will ask you at least
One question, no more than three.
This kind of subjectivity is very large. First of all, although the questions asked are all within the scope of undergraduates, but having said that, even if the doctoral thesis involves the problems, the basis is undergraduate courses, just like studying the flight speed of the space shuttle. In the final analysis
Newton's theorem should still be learned. Newton's theorem can be learned in the tenth grade, but when it comes to the flight speed of a spacecraft, it must be a college student...
Well, what I mean is that for a professor at Stanford, the subjective questions are too broad. Let alone an undergraduate, even a Ph.D., he will ask you questions within the undergraduate scope and you will be speechless.
Of course, in the same way, he can also let you pass smoothly, and even make you feel that the questions you ask belong to elementary school, it all depends on his impression of you!"
Ding Huaizhong explained it to Liu Lang in detail.
"Professor Ding, how can I get extra points for this item?"
Liu Lang pointed to an article in the instruction manual, which said that if the applicant can write a valuable paper, it can be used as a basis for evaluation.
"Haha, Liu Lang, this one is even more difficult. Every doctoral dissertation graduated from Stanford University must be published in a domestic first-class journal. It can be said that they have high academic value, but the vast majority of Ph.D.
In the eyes of those professors, the paper can only be regarded as barely acceptable. You are just an undergraduate! You are still exposed to too little theoretical knowledge, and the paper you write will not satisfy those demanding professors!"
Ding Huaizhong directly rejected Liu Lang's idea. As Stanford University is a world-class university, one of the most basic conditions for becoming a professor at this school is to publish several first-class academic papers. Similarly, these professors must be very critical of the papers.
The requirements are also surprisingly demanding. Can an undergraduate's thesis be of high value to them all? The brochure is whimsical.
Seeing Ding Huaizhong's unbelieving expression, Liu Lang smiled and said nothing more. To be honest, for him, a time traveler from thirty years later, this era is so outdated in every aspect.
,This is not only reflected in the development of science and technology.
