问下UIUC的MFE申请，只用写个300字的PS？？？

Provide a purpose statement: In 300 words or less, describe your area of interest and what your goals are upon completion of the MSFE program (note: you do NOT need to provide 1500 words as requested in the on-line application)
There are NO program-specific questions to be answered (as referenced in the on-line application).

what your goals are upon completion of the MSFE program
这句话是什么意思？没太明白

In 300 words or less  这也写的太少了吧？一般的PS不是至少一页的嘛

NO program-specific questions to be answered？？ 是说连question也没有吗……这UIUC不会只看个人的背景就录取了？

300 words is definitely enough for an essay.

you need to mention
1) what you are interested in, and suggest that MFE matches your interests;
2) what sub-industry (within the finance industry) you want to go to after graduation, and suggest that MFE can help you to fulfil the gap.

no need to mention your preparations towards MFE degree because they are fully demonstrated on your transcript/resume.

感谢！！
那个program-specific questions to be answered 是针对其他一些项目的question~但是MFE这个项目是毛有的……
