The application rationale is an important part of your application document, 因为这篇文章可以帮助我们的教务委员会了解你的教育和职业意图. So, the six-question rationale should span to be about two pages long. You want to keep all the original questions intact, 所以只要使用我们发给你的原始文档,并在下面的空白处输入你的问题. 纵向上,每个问题应该包含一到两个段落,这取决于问题. 用第一个问题解释你的教育背景——你以前学过的专业, 你上过的学校, 你的职业想法-真的帮助我们看到是什么让你走到这一步. 第二个问题是关于你的职业和教育目标. In here, you can write in detail what your plans are for your future. 第三点很重要. 这个问题是关于你为你的学习计划所选择的课程选择. 对于这个, you'll need to list each class that will be part of your plan of study, 所以你未来的每一门课程. 用一到两句话解释为什么这门课对你来说是一个不错的选择. 想想这门课程将如何帮助你实现你未来的目标. 你可以参考课程描述和目录,这样你可以了解更多关于这门课程的信息. 第四个是另一个很重要的问题它涉及到积分理论. 所以,想想你过去的课程是如何与你未来的课程结合起来,使你成为你想要进入的领域的唯一合格的人. So, think about this one kind of on a deeper level, right? How did you develop some transferable skills from what you've done before? How are the new courses going to help you to develop the skills, 知识, 批判性思维能力, 解决问题的能力, all the pieces that are going to go in to help you to stand out in the field? That's what you want to write about there. Number five is asking you to give a hypothetical title to your plan of study. This should not be a typical, regular major that we already have at OU. So think of this in a more creative way. 你的综合职称是什么? 它应该听起来像学术和专业的头衔,但记住这是一个假设的头衔. It won't actually be listed on your transcript. And the last question refers to graduate school. 如果你不打算继续读研究生,你不需要回答这个问题,只需要解释一下你现在不打算继续读研究生. If you do plan to go on for graduate school, talk about any prerequisites that are required and how you've included those. 也许是看绩点. maybe there are certain classes that are required for your next step. That's what you want to include in that area. We want to make sure that you'll be able to transfer on, or go on for graduate school seamlessly, without having to do anything extra in between. And so, that will wrap up your rationale! 它应该是专业的. 应该打出来. So, it's a very important document that should really showcase you. 所以通读一遍. Use the Writing Center for help if you need that. 检查语法. 确保一切顺利, and when you feel that it's in perfect condition, 把它发给你的指导老师审阅. 我们会通读一遍,然后给你一些建议,让它变得更好. So, thanks for the good hard work on that!
