Undergraduate / 'such an aristocratic campus' - Yale essay [4]
What in particular about Yale has influenced your decision to apply? Please limit your response to the space provided. (500 c)
President Bush and Clinton introduced Yale to me, which already gives me the impression of such an aristocratic campus, filled with noble, super talented students all over the world, bringing together conflicts in culture and mind. But I am used to that. Never afraid of challenges or collision, I know how to adapt to new environment, overcome adversities and benefit from collisions. Then I find many accused Yale for being too independent, featured by unorthodox students and professors free of hierarchies and restrictions and unyielding campus never submits to political pressure and monetary temptations, and too aristocratic. Yet I disagree, as I have been pursuing freedom in living and thinking to jump from excellence to eminence and change the world.
