关于Wharton fellowship essay

louis_huang

申请Wharton的童鞋们，大家写不写fellowship essay啊？不写的话，是不是不被考虑在fellowship candidate之中啊？学校网站上是说：All applications are reviewed by the Fellowship Committee to identify and select the best recipients.

我就没找到哪里提到需要fellowship essay，有题目吗？

student2student里说，I have seen that we need to write 2 separate essays to be eligible for fellowship. 我怎么没看见呢

有的，在左栏，"fellowship application"

“As a Wharton alumna/alumnus, you have decided to fund your own Wharton MBA fellowship program. What criteria would you use to select candidates and how much would you award to a student per year? Explain your rationale behind making these decisions.”

但是没太懂题目的意思。是以第三人称来阐述你符合拿助学金的要求吗？至于什么样的助学金，你可以自己想象，是吗？只要迎合你自己的特点，创立一个新的奖学金program，也可以。是这样吗？

谁来解答一下！

谢谢楼上的。

这个问题是说如果你做为校友创建一个奖学金项目，什么是你选择申请者的标准。

When do we write this essay? After acceptance or during application?

Thanks, Jason, BTW, 你申请时写了这个吗？

aspirant and louis_huang，谢谢你们的提醒！但是我现在真想大喊一声，草塌马。。。我怎么现在才看见呢？还要再写500字的essay!!!!

这篇essay是客观地来设计fellowship的标准，还是根据自己的特点来设计（换个角度说自己的优点，为何能拿到fellowship）？

I think it is the latter -- a marketing essay in disguise of the 3rd person perspective. We need to sell ourselves out.

Correct me if I am wrong, Jason...

topmba> The idea is probably that, through your choice of designing your own fellowship, you reveal what it is that you value most. I did not write this when I applied- this is a new thing. Previously, you submit this after being accepted.
