Personal Statement

Following my mother from Tianjin Yaohua School to Belmont High School, my high school experience has been a lucky and dramatic adventure, which has shaped me into a highly internationalized person with global perspective. I still remember the moment when I received the immigration documents from the Harvard International Office. Facing a different educational philosophy and approach, I feel extremely excited.

At 16, I joined the Harvard Mulan Dance and Arts Troupe and celebrated my first Spring Festival in the United States by performing Chinese folk dance in the Confucius Institute, missing my families and my favorite dumplings in China.

In China, I have been working with a group of fellow students in our National Olympiad in Informatics and Software Program Design with Pascal, Basic and C+. As I merged myself into the new environment, I was able to continue to take an active part in a number of wonderful academic activities, which have culminated in the 17th Annual Harvard-MIT Mathematics Tournament. My strong interest in computer science and mathematics will continue to spur me to pursue the ultimate academic excellence for my future education.

Besides my academic achievements, I always take advantage of different activities to polish myself into a more well-rounded person and a future leader. In activities like the Harvard SEED on Citizenship and Social Innovation and the Global Youth Leadership, I have been working with international students
