The admissions office recommends that students participate in extracurricular activities that truly delight them rather than trying to figure out what activities might appeal to MIT. You should pursue one or more extracurricular activities that you continue with throughout high school. Many students have the mistaken idea that they need to spread themselves thin and try to participate in as many different activities as possible to demonstrate that they are well-rounded.
Schools like MIT are not searching to find well-rounded students. Instead, MIT is looking for students who show high levels of intelligence combined with singular talent in the areas of their interest. On its admissions mission page , MIT emphasizes its commitment to the public interest. The school wants to find leaders and innovators who are dedicated to making life better for the good of everyone.
The school accepts top students from all backgrounds to further its institutional goals. MIT points interested students to a book written in by B. It is available in PDF format on the internet here. Your extracurricular activities should also be used to demonstrate that you have leadership skills.
When you join clubs, try to secure leadership positions in them. If your school does not have a club in your interest area, talk to the administration about starting your own. You will likely find that there are several other students at your high school who would enjoy participating in a club that you create.
Starting your own club also allows you to show your initiative and your leadership skills. If you start high school with the singular goal of gaining admission to MIT, you should recognize that the school accepts a very small percentage of the students who apply.
You should instead focus on being the best student and person that you can be and in gaining a better understanding of who you are and what you enjoy. If you focus on bettering yourself rather than simply gaining admission to MIT, you might make yourself a more attractive applicant when the time comes to submit your applications. There are many enrichment activities in math and science that you can participate in to prepare yourself for the rigors of studying at MIT.
Enrichment opportunities also provide you with the ability to meet other like-minded students who also love science and math so that you can forge friendships that could last a lifetime. MIT has a list of enrichment opportunities both at MIT and through competitions that you might consider.
MIT also offers several selective residential summer programs that might allow you to gain hands-on education on the campus of MIT.
Even if you are unable to attend a summer program at MIT, you can take advantage of similar programs in your state to advance your knowledge in math and science. Visiting MIT and learning about the school could give you an advantage. In addition to meeting current students, you will more material for your essays that will demonstrate you have researched the school and why you are a good fit.
You can participate in a campus tour and information session and sign up to attend a class. Visiting MIT allows you to show that you are interested in the school.
Like other elite universities, MIT wants students who have a strong desire to attend, and visiting is one way to express your interest. Visiting the campus can also allow you to determine whether the feel of MIT is right for you. Check their website to find a session that is close to you. You can register and start the process here. The application is designed to be completed online. You can scan in supplemental materials.
If you need to do so, you can also submit them via fax at MIT prefers that you do not mail in supplemental documents. However, if you cannot avoid mailing documents, you can send them to the following address:. Box Randolph, MA MIT asks several short answer questions on its application.
Take your time answering each question. Double-check your grammar and spelling, and answer every question thoughtfully within the requested maximum number of words. Before you click submit, it is a good idea to print out your application and have a teacher or college admissions counselor look over it with you. That gives you a chance to get input from others so that you can revise your answers as necessary.
MIT has two application processes, including early action and regular action. Applying through early action does not increase your chances of gaining admission to MIT. However, it does demonstrate that you are very interested in attending MIT. You must pay attention to the application deadlines whether you plan to apply by early or regular action.
If you plan to apply via the early action process, your application materials must be submitted no later than November 1. Early action applicants will receive their decisions by mid-December. If you plan to apply to MIT by the regular action process, your application materials will be due no later than Jan. Regular action and deferred action applicants will be notified of whether they have been accepted during the regular action process by April 1.
MIT states that it does not have a preference for early action or regular action. The school also does not limit you to applying only to MIT during the early action process, which means that you can apply to other schools through their early action processes as well. For example, if you apply to a school that states that early action students must attend its school if accepted, MIT expects you to attend that school even if both MIT and the other school accept your application. You will need to ask for two letters of recommendation.
You will not be able to read these letters, so you should choose who to ask to write them wisely. Refrain from asking someone who does not truly know who you are to recommend you to MIT. For example, it may be better to ask your calculus teacher to write a letter of recommendation to MIT for you than to ask your local congressional representative to do so.
MIT specifically requires you to have two teachers submit letters of recommendation, and the school also wants additional information from your guidance counselor. The two teacher letters must be from a science or math teacher and a teacher in the humanities, languages, or social sciences. You should choose teachers who know you well as both a student and a person.
The letters of recommendation are submitted online. You can learn more about the process here. MIT is unable to interview all applicants. If you are chosen for an interview, you will be notified by email. Respond to the email promptly to schedule a time and day to meet with your interviewer. If you are not interviewed, that does not mean that you will not be accepted to MIT. It simply means that there are a limited number of interviewers and thousands of applicants, so not everyone can be interviewed who applies.
The interviews are not conducted on campus. If you are chosen for an interview, you will be interviewed at a location in your area at which you and the MIT representative agree to meet. This is because the school wants to know more about you beyond what you submit in your application and supplemental materials.
If you are chosen for an interview, you will receive an email. Respond to this email promptly. Interviews are conducted in your area at a location that both you and the interviewer agree to. Common examples include coffee shops, restaurants, libraries, or book stores.
It is sometimes possible to arrange an interview via Skype. Think business casual. The interview is normally not a formal event. Instead, dress for the location at which your interview will be held. Read blogs about the MIT interview and talk to others who have gone through it to get an idea of some of the questions that you might be asked. Think about your answers and practice.
