Statement of Purpose是我们通常说的研究生申请文书。它是我们申请材料中，除了成绩以外唯一能让学生自己表达“我是谁，我是否优秀”的机会。
如何写一份强有力的、独特的目的陈述，给招生委员会留下深刻印象，增加你进入理想学校的机会，就显得极为重要。
那么，留学文书中的SOP到底应该怎么写呢？小编今天就来为大家献上满满干货！
1
SOP的正确格式
A statement of purpose should be between 500 and 1,000 words,即SOP应为 500 到 1000 字
it should typically not exceed a single page,正文通常不应超过一页
use a traditional font at a readable size (11 or 12 points) and leave enough white space in the margins to make the statement easy to read. 使用传统字体，大小为11或12，页边留出足够空白
Make sure to double-space the statement if the university has requested it,如果大学要求，请确保将行距设为双倍。

如何撰写SOP
在撰写目的陈述时，建议先问自己以下关键问题
Why do I want this degree?
What are my expectations for this degree?
What courses or program features excite me the most?
Where do I want this degree to take me, both professionally and personally?
How will my unique experiences add value to the program?
花点时间把这些问题的答案写下来。这将帮助你整理初步想法，并为创建大纲和撰写个人陈述提供起点。
制定大纲
Introduction 引言
An attention-grabbing hook 开头要有吸引力
A brief introduction of yourself and your background, highlighting your motivation for applying to graduate school. 简要介绍自己及申请动机。
Body 正文
Your relevant experience and accomplishments in the field， 与该领域相关的经验和成就
Example 1
Example 2
Example 3
Your professional goals related to the program，职业目标
Why you’re interested in this specific school and what you can contribute，对该校的兴趣及贡献
Conclusion 结论
A brief summary of the information presented in the body that emphasizes your qualifications and compatibility with the school. 对正文内容的简要总结，强调你的资质和与学校的契合度。
写出初稿
招生官已经看到你的成绩单和简历，个人陈述是你讲述故事的机会。你的个人陈述应说明你是谁，以及为何对某个项目感兴趣，同时要与其他申请者区别开来。
在撰写内容时，请确保：
Provide insight into what drives you, whether that’s professional advancement, personal growth, or both.说明你的动力。
Demonstrate your interest in the school by addressing the unique features of the program that interest you most.表达对学校和项目特点的兴趣。
Be yourself. It’s important to be authentic when writing your statement to show the admissions committee who you are and why your unique perspective will add value to the program.做真实的自己，展示独特视角。
编辑并完善
在提交个人陈述前：
Make sure you’ve followed all directions thoroughly, including requirements about margins, spacing, and font size.确保遵循所有要求，如页边距、行距和字体。
Proofread carefully for grammar, spelling, and punctuation.仔细校对语法和拼写。
Remember that a statement of purpose should be between 500 and 1,000 words. If you’ve written far more than this, read through your statement again and edit for clarity and conciseness. Less is often more; articulate your main points strongly and get rid of any “clutter.”个人陈述应500到1000字；超出范围需编辑简洁明了。
