哈佛大學(xué)錄取新生，有你不知道的神操作

世界院校哈佛大學(xué)一直口碑頗佳，也是各類招生排行榜上名列前茅的選擇。然而最近，哈佛大學(xué)卻在招生問題上爆出了大新聞。據(jù)《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》報(bào)道，哈佛大學(xué)2014-2019屆的學(xué)生中，每年大約有50到60名學(xué)生通過“Z名單”被錄取，只是這些學(xué)生須推遲一年時(shí)間入學(xué)。>>>更多相關(guān)信息請(qǐng)咨詢新通留學(xué)專家。

Among Harvard students in the classes of 2014 to 2019, about 50 to 60 students each year were admitted off the "Z-list," according to a report by Anemona Hartocollis, Amy Harmon, and Mitch Smith at the The New York Times. Students who are "Z-ed" must defer their enrollment for one year.

在一份針對(duì)哈佛大學(xué)招生的訴訟中，原告方面認(rèn)為，這些通過Z名單錄取的學(xué)生，都是哈佛校友的子女，其他人走不了這樣的后門。

But plaintiffs in a lawsuit against Harvard say many of these students are legacies, meaning their parents attended Harvard, and might not otherwise make the cut.

每年約有4萬人申請(qǐng)入讀哈佛，大概2000人收到入學(xué)通知，但只有1600人能夠順利成為新生。

About 40,000 students apply each year, and about 2,000 are admitted for some 1,600 seats in the freshman class.

據(jù)《商業(yè)內(nèi)幕》統(tǒng)計(jì)，哈佛是美國(guó)最難進(jìn)入的大學(xué)，錄取率約為5%。

Harvard is America's hardest college to get into, with an acceptance rate of about 5%.

一般來說，2-3名招生官會(huì)從學(xué)術(shù)、課外、體育、個(gè)性和綜合等五個(gè)方面，對(duì)申請(qǐng)者做出考評(píng)。同時(shí)，他們也會(huì)評(píng)估教師或者輔導(dǎo)員的推薦。但校方也會(huì)對(duì)少數(shù)族裔、校友子女、捐助者親屬、教職員工子女甚至學(xué)校招募的運(yùn)動(dòng)員，提供一些“小獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)”。

Generally two or three admissions officers, or readers, rate applications in five categories: academic, extracurricular, athletic, personal and “overall.” They also rate teachers’ and guidance counselors’ recommendations. Harvard says it also considers “tips,” or admissions advantages, for some applicants. The plaintiffs say the college gives tips to five groups: racial and ethnic minorities; legacies, or the children of Harvard or Radcliffe alumni; relatives of a Harvard donor; the children of staff or faculty members; and recruited athletes.

早在2002年，由哈佛學(xué)生獨(dú)立運(yùn)營(yíng)的報(bào)紙《Harvard Crimson》就報(bào)道過有關(guān)Z名單的相關(guān)事項(xiàng)。報(bào)道指出，他們收集了2001-2002年間Z名單上80人中36人的信息。在這36人中，有26位(72%)為校友子女。而校友子女比率在整個(gè)哈佛中僅為12%-14%。

The Harvard Crimson, an independent student-run paper, reported on the Z-list in 2002. The publication said it gathered information about 36 of the roughly 80 Z-list students at Harvard from 2001 to 2002 and found that 26 of them, or 72%, were legacies, compared with 12-14% of the entire class.

該報(bào)在2010年的一篇文章中則指出，接受采訪的28名Z名單學(xué)生中，有18人的父母曾在哈佛就讀。此外，24人沒有得到學(xué)校的經(jīng)濟(jì)援助。而據(jù)該報(bào)報(bào)道，全體哈佛學(xué)生中受資助的比例達(dá)到70%。

Another Crimson article about the Z-list, published in 2010, said that 18 of 28 Z-listers interviewed had parents who attended Harvard and that 24 received no financial aid from the college. The Crimson reported that about 70% of Harvard's student body received financial aid.

不過，哈佛方面并不這么認(rèn)為。哈佛招生處負(fù)責(zé)人William R. Fitzsimmons表示，“Z名單”并不是用來招收校友子女的。Z名單中校友子女占比高是因?yàn)�，這些學(xué)生更情愿接受該名單的特殊入學(xué)政策。而且Z名單上的學(xué)生也并不比正常入學(xué)的學(xué)生差。

Harvard's admissions staff has said the Z-list is not a way to admit legacy students. The 2010 Crimson article described William R. Fitzsimmons, the dean of admissions and financial aid, as saying the Z-list has a disproportionate number of legacy students to the class a whole because they might be more inclined to accept their spot on the list. Fitzsimmons told The Crimson in 2010 that the students on the Z-list weren't of a lower caliber than other admitted students.
