Chapter 687： Eliminated high school students from various countries

Dennis is a high school student in the United States. Because his high school GPA is not bad, he was admitted to Pennsylvania State University Park campus in the twelfth grade, that is, the third year of high school.

Unlike China, the United States has a college entrance examination, and American universities are application-based.

American high schools are grades 9-12. Generally, students will start applying to American universities in October of grade 12. The deadline for early applications is mostly from early November to mid-November, while regular applications are generally completed at the end of December.

As for the application, no matter what SAT or ACT, the most important thing is the high school transcript and the recommendation letter from the school or teacher, GPA is the most effective.

Although she was accepted to college before graduating from high school, she still didn't graduate until June.

At this moment, Dennis, who had graduated from high school and should have been waiting for college, had a change in his mind.

Because he changed his mind not to go to Penn State Park, but to Guanghua University!

The cause of the incident is related to the admissions promotional video advertisement seen on the Nasdaq screen earlier this month.

After finally graduating from high school, Dennis and a few classmates went to the big city of New York to see something like Times Square in New York, not to mention foreigners, even for some Americans, it is also a must-check Internet celebrity spot.

Standing on the crossroads known as the most prosperous in the world, Dennis, who has never left Pennsylvania, was shocked!

The Nasdaq big screen is naturally the most eye-catching one. When Dennis looked at it, he found that it was not an advertisement, or a "special" advertisement.

A promotional video for undergraduate admissions from a Chinese university.

As a junior in middle school, when he read it, he got goosebumps all over.

I don't know why, but he actually believed the lines in the promotional video.

【We often say that this is the best era】

[Because everyone is free to pursue what they want to do]

【Contribute to this era in your own way】

...

【Who will define the future world? 】

【It's up to you, how to change】

【Join Guanghua University】

【Let us change the world together! 】

The top is the top, but Dennis is not an idiot. He deliberately spent a few days to check all the news about Guanghua University on the Internet.

China's famous schools such as T University and P University, even Dennis knows it, and Guanghua University's reputation such as these two is naturally not good, but he feels that the future potential of this private university that has emerged over the past year is immeasurable!

Life is a gamble.

Give it a go, the bicycle becomes a motorcycle!

So, he plans to apply to Guanghua University in China, and then withdraw his admission to Penn Park University after he gets the offer.

Fortunately, his parents were very open-minded and did not object to his behavior too much.

"Ding--"

A new email alert appears.

Dennis didn't care whether it was a notification email from Guanghua University, so he hurriedly opened it.

After reading the contents of the email, Dennis's inner unease instantly disappeared.

"Approved?" Dennis was overjoyed, "Great, passed!"

In addition to congratulations on passing the qualification review, the email also invited Dennis to come to China to participate in the follow-up written test interview.

There is plenty of time, in a week.

There is also a contact number at the back. If you have any questions, you can call in addition to email.

At this moment, the mother's cry came from the living room outside the door.

"Dennis, Evan came to play with you."

Before Dennis could react, another drake-like voice sounded almost at the same time as the door opened.

"Hey Dennis, why haven't you been out to play lately?"

Evan, with golden curly hair and blue eyes, is not bad if he only looks at his facial features, except that he is a little fat.

They are in the same high school as Dennis. Although they are not in the same class, they have a good relationship because of their neighbors.

"I'm not in the mood to go out recently, sorry." Dennis said apologetically.

Evan probably guessed something and complained: "Thank you for your generous gift, you won't be still waiting for the response from that university in China, right?"

"I have to say that the efficiency of the Chinese people is too slow. It's almost July, why haven't you replied yet?"

Yes, not only Dennis applied for international students at Guanghua University, but Evan also applied.

Hearing Evan's words, Dennis smiled: "Evan, there is already an email reply."

"Well? Did you reply?" Evan was stunned for a moment, then noticed the smile on Dennis' face, and jokingly slammed his fist on the other's shoulder.

"My good buddy, it seems that you passed it?"

"Then I'll take a look too." Evan said as he took out his mobile phone to check his mailbox.

Sure enough, an email just arrived.

Just after opening it, Evan cursed directly.

"Fake, didn't pass??"

"What **** school, it's a waste of my time!"

Dennis, who automatically filtered out these two sentences, took a closer look, and it was really a rejected email, and he also gave the first explanation of rejection.

"Require a GPA of 3.5 or higher?"

Now it was Dennis' turn to cry and laugh, so he had to comfort his friend by saying, "It's a pity, you almost passed."

Dennis has a GPA of 3.62, while Evan's GPA is 3.47.

Evan's anger continued, and he scolded: "Fake, I shouldn't have applied, let's go to my University of Pittsburgh honestly!"

American universities eat a lot of GPA. For example, Dennis has a GPA of 3.62 and applies to Penn Park University, which ranks fourth in Pennsylvania.

The top three are the University of Pennsylvania, Carnegie Mellon University and Lehigh University.

Note that the Penn Park campus here is not the University of Pennsylvania, but Penn State University.

The former is a private university, a world-renowned university, and the latter is a state university, that is, a public university. It ranks more than 90 in the world, and is among the best in public universities.

And Evan GPA 3.47 points, only applied to the University of Pittsburgh.

The school, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania's second-largest city, is also a public university, but ranks after Penn Park University.

There have also been many Chinese celebrities, such as Chen Lifu, Li Yinhe, Wang Xiaobo, Ma Dawei, Wu Yundong, etc.

The better the school, the higher the GPA (without persuasion).

For example, the average GPA of students at the University of California, Berkeley is 3.92 points, while Harvard University, MIT, and Stanford University have higher GPA requirements.

Evan thought that his GPA must be no problem to apply to Guanghua University in China, after all, the other party is behind in the ranking.

If he applied to Tsinghua University and Peking University, he would definitely not dare, there was no drama at all.

I thought it was stable, but I didn't expect this result? ? ?

After some comfort from Dennis, and also said that after inviting him to the bar at night, Evan's mood gradually calmed down.

Thinking that Dennis passed, Evan was not jealous, but asked worriedly: "Dennis, my good brother, do you really plan to go to China to take the written test and interview?"

"What about the offer from Penn Park University?"

Dennis did not hesitate and said bluntly: "Then I have to write an email to the school to apply for withdrawal."

Seeing that Dennis's attitude was so determined, Evan was really stunned. If it was him, even if he got an offer from Guanghua University, he would have to choose between the University of Pittsburgh and Guanghua University.

"This... Then wouldn't it be difficult for us to meet again?" Evan said sadly.

"Yes," Dennis patted Evan on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, Evan, if I go to Guanghua University, you can come to China to play with me in the future."

Evan sighed, "God, I wish I was free and rich then."

Dennis was in a good mood because he had passed the qualification review of Guanghua University, so he went out to play basketball with Evan for a while and went to the bar in the evening.

Then it's time to prepare for the written test.

At the same time, 232 high school graduates from more than 40 countries in the world received email replies from Guanghua University.

Of the 81 passers, most of them bought air tickets to China, and only a few really gave up.

...

the same day.

Guanghua University, in an amphitheater.

The seat below was almost full, and all the students were waiting for a person to arrive.

Ten minutes later, a middle-aged man in a white shirt and black trousers stepped into the classroom under the sunlight.

The Morning Sun Project—Western Dream Support Group, the first lesson of professional training, is about to begin.

ps: Ask for a recommendation ticket and a monthly ticket.

(Waiting for boarding at the airport.)
