对于留学申请来说，文书经常是最让人头疼的，尤其是个PS（个人陈述）和Essay。不但需要很好地理解题目，而且每个学校的文书题目有可能不同。因此，非常有必要及早了解美国学校常见的文书题目类型，以便及早思考，以免耽误申请进度，错过申请最佳时期。
大众类型1（也即Personal Statement）
常见专业：多数授课/求职导向型专业，包括文科、部分商科、理工科
这类文书是大众情人，多数学校也都是只要求PS，字数在300-1000 words不等，内容要求一般大同小异，主要包括：
过往有什么经历背景让你申请这个专业？
学完有什么计划，如何帮助你未来的职业？
为什么选我们学校？
题目列举：
University of Delaware @ MA-TESOL

大众类型2（Statement of Purpose）
适用专业：学术性强、研究型强的专业，包括大部分理工专业，文科专业或博士
粗浅地来说，Statementof Purpose和PersonalStatement并无差异，有学校自己就解释过两者是一样的，大部分情况下，通用也是没问题的，但细微的差别也有，Statement of Purpose可以说更为学术一些。
这类文书也是大爱，多数学校也都是只要求SP，字数也在300-1000words不等，内容要求一般大同小异，主要包括：
你具体的求学目的
具体的兴趣和计划
过往经历如何以及影响

Georgetown University @ Masters Degree in Applied Economics

Essay善类（Career Goal）
常见专业：商科硕士
商学院最喜欢问职业目标了，许多商科硕士并没有要求PS或SP，取而代之的是名为Career Goal的Essay，因为商科是最为职业化的专业类别
这类文书也比较好写，通常都会这样问：
长短期职业目标
为什么有这样的目标
为什么申请该专业该学校

Essay恶类（各种题目让你措手不及）
常见专业：商科硕士
有一定比例的商科硕士除了要求Career Goal的Essay之外，还会有其他题目的Essay要求，在时间紧张的情况下，遇到这些内容，往往容易让人崩溃，因为有时候总想不到例子
