什么是推荐信？

推荐信，是推荐人（通常担任一定领导职务）就被推荐人（此处为项目申请人）的学习喜欢，工作技能，和主要成绩等给予评价，并以推荐人名义提交的信函。绝大多数学校要求每位申请人提供3至4封来自不同推荐人的推荐信。

为什么推荐信如此重要？

推荐信是申请人提供的唯一体现第三方评价的材料。在审阅了个人陈述，简历等资料后，申请审核官迫切希望看到他人对申请人优势，能力，及成绩的评价，以达到从多角度进行判断的目的。推荐信是欧美国家求学申请和工作申请中不可或缺的部分。一封客观且内容丰富的推荐信可以极大的增加申请材料的整体可信度，提升申请人被录取的可能。

什么是动机信：

动机信就是“个人陈述或目的陈述”，是关于申请人个人背景，出国目的，以及职业规划的简要描述。目前，欧美绝大多数大学，研究生院均要求入学申请人提交个人陈述、目的陈述、或类似申请资料。其中，个人陈述应更多侧重于申请人的个人经历，而目的陈述则应更多侧重于申请人的求学计划。

为什么个人陈述/目的陈述如此重要？

如谚语所述，“你没有第二次机会去打造第一印象。”

个人陈述/目的陈述是审核官对申请人获取感性认识的第一途径，也是申请人从数千万成绩优异，经验丰富的竞争者中脱颖而出的重要手段。申请人的成长背景，性格特点，爱好专长，求学目标等均将受到申请审核官的特别关注，进而对申请结果产生重大影响。

可以说，一篇出众的个人陈述/目的陈述是录取成功的必备要素，而个性鲜明则是一篇优秀个人陈述/目的陈述的第一要诀。

以下是一份动机信的模板：

1、介绍自己：生活自理能力、学习适应能力，语言能力，并表明自己具有较成熟的心智；

2、职业规划

3、介绍父母和家庭条件：家庭经济条件能够支付留学费用；父母都是大学毕业生，重视子女的教育，支持子女的留学计划

4、国外优秀的教育资源，可以让自己学到更多的知识和技能

Personal Statement

In 2009, when everyone in China was saving money for real estate investments, I was putting money away so that I could come to the United States and study. This was not a popular decision among my family and friends. Why would I give up a great job and life to travel half way across the earth and become a poor college student agai n? I don’t know how many times I tried to explain to them that I thought it would be a good investment and that in the end it would benefit my life and my career tremendously. The second reason (and maybe the most important) is that I truly enjoy learning and obtaining knowledge; it makes me feel I am growing as a person and gives me a great sense of self-satisfaction.

My grandfather was a respected professor at a prestigious university prior to the Cultural Revolution and both my parents are senior engineers who graduated from the best university in China. Though we were never rich by any means, my parents always made it a priority to take me to museums, bookstores, and famous colleges in their spare time. I loved reading stories about famous scientists, especially those who persisted in their theories no matter how difficult the situation. The atmosphere in my house was one that allowed me to cultivate my mind and find my passion.

My decision to major in accounting came from my three-year term as the treasurer of my high school class. There I was responsible for recording, archiving receipts, making the annual budget, and collecting and refunding money for programs. This job transformed me into a patient and organized person who wanted to learn more about financial management. In 2001, I enrolled as an accounting student at the (college name). (college name) is one of the most competitive universities in China and my time there taught me a lot about the spirit of hard work. Each of my last three years at the university I was awarded a level 3 scholarship as an outstanding student. Upon graduation my major GPA was a 3.6 which ranked me among the top 15 percent of my class.

To prove my accounting sense and financial management capability I postponed my graduate education and accepted a position as an auditor at (accounting firm name) Beijing Branch. During my 4-year employment there I had the opportunity to experience the full range of planning, auditing, and reporting. Among my duties there were: (1) the designing of suitable audit methods for clients, (2) using procedures to exam and analyze accounts, (3) evaluating the fairness of financial statements and reports, (4) and providing recommendations regarding improving operations and financial positions of clients.

My largest client when I was with (accounting firm name) was (company name). I worked as an auditor of their IPO program and on the first annual audit after that. One of the things I am

most proud of is the Revenue and Cost recognition model I created while I was there. It was based on the percentage-of-completion method and could check for inconsistencies within the data, calculate the revenue of projects, and exam clients’ combination results when there are inter-subcontracts. This model was adopted as the major tool for the entire team of auditors (approximately 100) and to my knowledge is still used in (company name’s) audit team today.

My work there not only confirmed my competence in the accounting field, but also trained me into a diligent and persevering professional. More than 50% of my clients were new clients, meaning we had no records in our database to refer to. The challenge of starting from the very beginning is stressful and exciting at the same time. I found myself extremely motivated when I had the authority to design procedures and make decisions. The feeling of success and confidence I gained from serving new clients is the main reason why I stayed with the (company name) team for 20 months. My work there gave me a great sense of self-satisfaction and was recognized by my peers and supervisors. I was rewarded for my hard work by being one of the top paid employees at my level during my last three years of employment.

When working as an auditor, the thing that interested me most is the conversion between different GAAPs. My experience of serving publicly listed companies in China, Hong Kong, and the US made me realize there are many theoretical differences between PRC GAAP, IFRS, and US GAAP. The accounting principles adopted by different countries not only show their stages of development, but also express their culture and social preferences. So is it really possible that we eliminate the GAAP difference by implementing IFRS? I am not sure what the right answer is but it is my opinion that the current IFRS employed in Hong Kong is vague and can be the source of many discussable issues. US GAAP, on the other hand, provides a much more advanced and structured approach to accounting. Maybe the US will adopt the IFRS eventually, but I believe that the US GAAP will still provide helpful guidance in the future. Learning more about the US GAAP is one of the main reasons I want to pursue an Education in the United States and I hope to obtain the AICPA license prior to my graduation.

I chose the accounting program at the (college name) not only because of its great reputation, but also because of the financial services option that I am especially interested in. Though my auditing experience proved my accounting skills, I also want to learn more about financial tools, such as bonds, forward contracts, and arbitrage. New businesses are relying more and more on the capital markets and having a solid knowledge of financing is a necessary commodity in the accounting field. With (college name’s) financial services option I would be able to take more than 20 credit hours of finance classes, which will help me become much more proficient in the area of financial analysis.

After graduate school, I plan to go back to China and consider a career in a new developing industry. The ability to see my accounting and financial management knowledge evolve into a hopeful, healthy, developing business is my motivation for this choice.

Although many of my family and friends may not think that coming to the US to study is the best decision, I believe it will broaden my knowledge of accounting to an extent that I could

never find in my home country. Also it will allow me to follow my own passion and learn from another culture which will be an invaluable asset for the rest of my life.
