套磁在留學申請中的價值不言而喻。而自己的套磁信如果有幸收到了回復，我們英發(fā)信之后就是翹首期盼對方的回復了。和出國留學網(wǎng)小編一起來了解一下如何從套磁信回復了解教授的想法。

套磁在留學申請中的價值不言而喻。而自己的套磁信如果有幸收到了回復，我們英發(fā)信之后就是翹首期盼對方的回復了。石沉大海的情況我們下面討論。我們先來說說可能遇到的各種回復。并學習一下如何通過教授套磁回復判斷自己是否有希望。
(1)婉拒型
Mr. X: I am impressed with your motivation and excellent writing in English. You have also done interesting research projects as an undergraduate student. However, the competition for admission to our graduate program is very keen, especially for international students. Many candidates score higher in GRE and have already published as the first author in international journals. You may apply to our graduate program, but nothing can be guaranteed for admission. Thanks for your interest in us.
遇到這種情況，我覺得你就要意識到這個學校其實已經(jīng)超過你的能力范圍了。
(2)模棱兩可型
Hi XX,
Thank you for your interest. I'm not sure if I will take students this fall or not. I cannot say what your chances for admission are since we are unsure who else will apply this year and how many positions we will have.
Thank you for your application.
這其實是最多的一種回復。這種回復基本會出現(xiàn)在你重點沖刺的list里面。遇到這種情況，你要權(quán)衡下是否要申請這所。
(3)貌似鼓勵型
XX
Thank you very much for contacting me. I am planning on taking one or two students in Fall 2011. I encourage you to apply for our program.
注意措辭，是apply for our program而不是my lab。他可能給每一個發(fā)信的或者是基本符合要求的學生都這樣回復。所以，碰到鼓勵申請的并不代表你就有較大的可能性被錄取。
(4)no opening型
Thank you for your interest in my research group. Unfortunately I don’t have any open positions right now.
這種其實很好。導師言簡意賅，就是不招生，你也可以死了這條心。
(5)媽呀型
在緊張的申請過程中，你可能覺得很焦躁，未來很灰暗。要是這個時候忽然來了這樣的一封信，那絕對讓你激動的想喊娘。為了鼓勵大家，我特意多羅列了幾個例子。
Model 1：
Dear XX, you are with very appropriate background and interests. I greatly appreciate your interest and sending such detailed information.
I would like to schedule a phone conversation with you if possible later next week and discuss your application and interests further.
Looking forward to our further communication
Best regards
趕緊看他的paper，準備面試吧。
Model 2:
Dear Mr X; I am very sorry I did not reply to you earlier but I have been travelling and very busy with some deadlines. Thank you for your interest in my laboratory an my research on XXXXXXXXXX. Your background is very suitable for this project and I am interested in discussing the possibility of you doing a Ph.D in my lab. Perhaps you could give me a telephone number and time when we could discuss this? I am travelling next week form Tuesday until Thursday but am free most other times. Looking forward to talking to you.
這封信是我永遠的痛。此處略去一萬字。
Model 3：
Hi XX,
Thanks for your email and your interest to pursue your education in XXXX. From your letter and your CV, you are certainly qualified. Let me know if need any specific help from me.
Best
導師表示愿意進一步幫助你的申請，下面就看你自己了。
Model 4：
Dear XX,
Sorry for not replying earlier. Your email has actually gone into my spam folder. If you have an official China email address you should use it to communicate with me.
I would be keen to consider you for the project. I would like to have a copy of your CV and you should indicate your area of technical expertise, in particular I would like to know your experience and knowledge in the field of XXX research. If you have technical experience in XXX it would be great.
If you are keen to read up on the current research on this area, I would be able to send you a section of the thesis of my PhD student.
Regards
按照導師的要求，發(fā)給他他想要的材料。
Model 5：
Hi X
Thank you for your mail. I have one project available which involves the XXX. The project would involve molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology and structural biology and would XXXXX. If you are interested in this type of research, please let me know and we can investigate the possibility of a studentship in XXX.
Regards
考慮下你的志愿，給導師一個回復。
Model 6：
Mr. X,
Thank you for making an effort to write a comprehensive letter stating your objectives and prior experience. If you will, I do not have a problem of being your supervisor. We could discuss the project in more details and see whether by that time there will be an opening in the lab for you.
BTW, I met your supervisor and sent him some of our transgenics within a framework of collaboration.
Best
注意，導師說他做你的supervisor沒有問題。問題是你是否能先被admitted。這很可能說明在錄取這件事上他無能為力。
Model 7：
Dear XX:
Your experience is definitely suitable to study in my lab. As I indicated earlier, I will be happy to take you if you can get any type of scholarship. If you have good TOEFL and GRE score, I can try to push you for the Aug-2010 intake.
注意，push這個詞很有用。說明導師能在review的時候能說上話。但前提是你自己要給力。
Model 8：
Hi X,
Sorry for the tardiness in responding. I would be happy to discuss with you. XX can make the arrangements. Can you check on your eligibility?
Regards,
等待小蜜給你安排面試就好。
以上的范例都出自我的申請。代表性有限，大家自行斟酌。要說的只有一點。不要以為有了這樣一封看似積極的回復就萬事大吉。事實上，這只是萬里長征的第一步。我收到的態(tài)度比較明朗的回復其實比上面的還多，而實際上這么多的套磁信只有一封轉(zhuǎn)化成了真正的offer。其中還有很慘痛的教訓。
