1、国贸 GMAT 班的一个同学的问题启发了我今天为所有同学写这篇文章“如何通过国外大学的网站来整理出申请信息” ，大家每一个大学都做一个这样的文档，会让你之后的申请明晰、顺利。 在大家考完 TOEFL、GRE、GMAT、SAT 等标准化考试之后，出国留学的万里长征路才算真正开始，而在这条长征路上，明确你所要申请的大学的要求以及申请信息、申请系统及其链接是应该做的第一步，下面，我就以斯坦福大学研究生院入学为例告诉大家如何整理出非常有利于自己申请的明晰的申请信息。首先，每一个大学的研究生院都有一个统一的、笼统的入学要求和需要提交的材料、联系电话和地址。例如下文的“Are You Ready to A
