Abstract:Individualized review is one approach to select freshmen by American elite colleges and universities, in which admission officers review each applicant as a whole person and as an individual, and review all the information provided by the application materials, as well as making evaluation in a non-mechanic and case-by-case approach. The core characteristics of individualized review include that no cutoff, no formula, and no single decisive factor. Although the first-class universities in China can’t simply duplicate the experiences from the U.S. side, but can learn its philosophy of equity, so as to promote the high-quality distribution of admission quotas.
