MIT Sloan MBA 文书赏析
-
01
“ There are only a few MBA programs that support Entrepreneurship in a creative way in the USA. MIT's Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship offers the key MBA programming that led me to choose this business school. I'm an entrepreneur at heart. I'm very interested in Sloan entrepreneurial culture, which marries business, technology, and disruptive ideas. Choosing Sloan was important to me because I have a vision to build “Salons of the Future” and MIT Sloan will give me the opportunity to bring my idea to fruition.

“ I'm particularly attracted to how integrated Sloan's entrepreneurial program is with the rest of the MIT campus. MIT hosts an incredible amount of talent as a technical institution and I'm excited to participate in coursework with fellow students across the entire university. The opportunity to join an environment that encourages cross-disciplinary collaboration aligns with my desire to find a co-founder with whom I can create a software-based startup.

Comments技术与创业角度的 Why School，精准踩在学校的 label 上。商学院所背靠的大学往往有着雄厚的资源优势，也进而成为商学院的优势。麻省理工的技术优势也成为 Sloan 的强势方向，特别是对于有跨学科意向的申请人们。这位申请人表达了对 Sloan 跨学科合作优势的青睐，与自身创建软件初创公司的愿望紧密相连。

“ Collaborative is the best word. I have just been awestruck by the collaborative and kind nature of every single student and alumni that I have met so far. Everyone has really embodied the spirit of “Sloanies helping Sloanies,” jumping in to answer questions or to provide support in the transition to b-school. Immediately upon accepting my seat at Sloan, I was added to WhatsApp and Slack groups, where second years and alumni have been so accommodating and have scheduled multiple calls to allow us to seek advice from them.

“ All the students and alumni with whom I've spoken or met so far (both in the application process and after I made my decision) have been so open and forthcoming about their experiences in the program and beyond. I also have been astounded at the varied backgrounds and professional and personal interests that students and alumni have. I'm someone who is coming into business school with varied experiences (management consulting, nonprofits, philanthropy), but hoping to pursue more ‘non-traditional’ post-business school opportunities. As a result, I've been encouraged to meet so many Sloanies who are open to pursuing new ways of solving challenges; motivated by a desire to fulfill their professional and personal goals beyond a narrow set of jobs; and are trying to solve some of the most persistent issues of our time.

CommentsValue 角度讲 Why School。这位申请人从人际氛围和价值追求的角度进行论述，没有具体讲某个项目或传统，但字里行间透出申请人对 Sloan 校园氛围和精神理念的青睐。同时，重点依旧在于与自身的连接上，申请人表示因为自身的丰富经历，因为更加希望获得“非传统”的机会，从而获得更加丰富的经验。

“ The diversity of teaching methods — through a combination of lectures, the case method and Action Learning Labs — led me to choose MIT Sloan. I am an individual who loves participating in the classroom but also strongly believes that the knowledge learned in the classroom needs to be applied in real life to become more useful. The diversity of MIT's teaching style was a big part of the reason why I applied to Sloan.
”
Comments教学特色方面讲 Why School。多样的教学方法也是 Sloan 的一项特色。讲座、案例法和行动学习实验室都成为论述这一特色的支撑。
06
“ Action Learning Labs are one of MIT Sloan's biggest attractions. The USA Lab caught my attention early on in my evaluation of the MIT Sloan program. My hope is to build communities that put forward solutions addressing the societal issues analyzed throughout this lab. To build home environments that empower communities, I need to deeply understand that community's needs, the challenges they face and the types of solutions they want to see. This lab will offer an opportunity to flex muscles of working directly with communities to brainstorm and implement solutions that they want to see for real problems and challenges.
