麻省理工学院的一名大三学生Victor D.，在MIT招生博客上公开了他当年被录取的小文书！

MIT 2026 Fall的申请者需要完成5篇小文书，其难点并非在于题目，而在于100-200字符的严格篇幅——这往往让表达变得极具挑战。

但Victor D.当年成功录取到MIT的小文书里，有4篇题目与2026 Fall的要求完全一致，因此，他的范文对同学们来说具有极其珍贵的参考价值。

话不多说，一起看申进MIT大热CS专业的小文书长什么样吧！

文书范文一

题目：What field of study appeals to you the most right now? 目前你最感兴趣的研究领域是什么？（100/100字）

范文：The application of programming and GIS to visualize pedestrian collision data to advocate for active transportation infrastructure introduced me to the potential of planning + computer science.

将编程与GIS应用于可视化行人碰撞数据，以倡导积极交通基础设施的研究经历，让我认识到规划+计算机科学的巨大潜力。

I’m eager to study human interactions in the built environment and data as a change agent. By exploring my eclectic interests through Course 11-6—ethics, design, statistics, robotics, and public-policy—I can draw connections between disciplines to tackle challenges: transportation emissions, social and racial bias in data, and urban food deserts.

我渴望研究人类在建筑环境中的互动，以及数据作为变革推动力的作用。通过11-6课程，我可以探索伦理、设计、统计、机器人、公共政策等多元兴趣，我能串联多学科知识应对挑战：如交通排放、数据中的社会与种族偏见、城市食品荒漠问题。

At MIT, I hope to collaborate with others to innovate and design to advocate for accessible, barrier-free, and sustainable environments that embrace diversity. Teamwork invents.

在MIT，我期待与他人协作，通过创新和设计倡导无障碍、可持续包容的环境。团队协作，创新无限。

作者：现在再看这篇文书，当时我想得太复杂了，尤其最后一句简直像在堆砌流行词。但反过来说，我在100字内把高中阶段的兴趣点全盘托出，以及说清楚了我在学习城市规划与CS专业时能收获什么。

文书范文二

题目：We know you lead a busy life, full of activities, many of which are required of you. Tell us about something you do simply for the pleasure of it.我们知道你的生活忙碌，有很多事情要做，其中很多是你必须完成的。请告诉我们一些你纯粹为了娱乐而做的事情。 (223/225字)

范文：Strawberries, blueberries, yogurt, almonds, and orange juice. Measure portions, pop them in the blender, and… presto! I love smoothie making.

草莓、蓝莓、酸奶、杏仁和橙汁。衡量好配比，倒入搅拌机，然后…...搞定！我超爱做果昔。

As a pro-smoothie-maker, I’ve fostered resourcefulness and adaptability. Blending smoothies is kinda like chemistry but I can be significantly more liberal with my experimentation without… accidents. Sometimes, there aren’t bananas for a strawberry-banana smoothie; no worries, just use an apple instead! If there aren’t any ingredients, I’ll bike to the supermarket. As long I can obtain materials, I *will* have my smoothie.

作为专业果昔制作达人，我养成了随机应变的能力。做果昔有点像做化学实验，但能自由尝试而不必担心事故。有时候草莓香蕉奶昔没香蕉？用苹果替代就行！如果没有配料了，那就骑车去超市采购。只要我能买得食材，我必定能喝上果昔。

I’m an avid Mango Lassi enthusiast and connoisseur. Unfortunately, the nearest Indian restaurant is a ways away. Whilst sipping Lassi one evening—perhaps pondering my next—I thought: Why not just make it?

我是芒果拉西的狂热爱好者和行家。可惜最近的印度餐厅离我还是有点远。一天晚喝拉西时灵光一现：何不自制？

I consulted friends about their recipes, then researched the drink’s ancient history for a cultural perspective to recreate Lassi. I partitioned yogurt, milk, mango, honey, and cardamom spice accordingly, and Mom suggested cinnamon for extra punch. And finally!—after months of experimenting and tasting, I blended a most delectable Mango Lassi.

我先向朋友们搜集食谱，又研究了这种饮品的历史，以复刻拉西时增加文化韵味。我按比例调配酸奶、牛奶、芒果、蜂蜜、豆蔻香料，我妈妈还建议加肉桂提味。历经数月调试品尝，终于调制出令人惊艳的芒果拉西。

Smoothies are an enjoyable and relaxing way to exercise creativity while connecting with others. After all, drinks should be enjoyed together—an experience that transcends generational gaps and differences. When my parents and I make breakfast, I’m on smoothie duty. When my little cousins visit, we make milkshakes. I take pleasure in sipping smoothies, communally.

果昔是联结彼此的创意休闲方式。饮品本该共享——这种体验能跨越年龄代沟差异。和父母一起做早餐时，我负责做果昔；当小表亲来串门时，我们一起做奶昔。我享受的是共同品味的过程。

作者：当时写这篇文书的想法是“选什么话题既荒诞又能体现深度，还能让招生官记住我呢”，考虑过写音乐、骑行、散步、摄影、电子游戏等，但这些话题我不知道该如何写得与众不同。思虑再三，我选择写自己热爱的做果昔，现在看这篇文书让我尬得脚趾抠地，但莫名有些治愈，我还是很喜欢的。

文书范文三

题目：MIT brings people with diverse backgrounds and experiences together to better the lives of others. Our students work to improve their communities in different ways, from tackling the world’s biggest challenges to being a good friend. Describe one way you have collaborated with people who are different from you to contribute to your community.描述你如何与不同背景的人合作，为社区做出贡献。 (223/225字)

范文：Last year, my European History teacher asked me to host weekly workshops for AP test preparation and credit recovery opportunities:去年，我的欧洲历史老师让我每周主持一次研讨会，为AP考试和恢复学分做准备：

David, Michelangelo 1504.

“Why is this the answer?” my tutee asked.“为什么是这个答案？”我辅导的学生问道。

I tried re-explaining the Renaissance. Michelangelo? The Papacy? I finally asked:我试着重新解释文艺复兴。米开朗基罗？教皇？最后我问：

“Do you know the story of David and Goliath?”“你知道David和Goliath的故事吗？”

Raised Catholic, I knew the story but her family was Hindu. I naively hadn’t considered she wouldn’t know the story. After I explained, she relayed a similar story from her culture.

身为天主教徒的我知道这个故事，但来自印度教家庭的她或许并不知道。在我解释后，她分享了本土文化中一个类似的故事。

As sessions grew, I recruited more tutors so everyone could receive more individualized support. While my school is nearly half Hispanic, AP classes are overwhelmingly White and Asian, so I’ve learned to understand the diverse and often unfamiliar backgrounds of my tutees.

随着学员增加，我招募到更多辅导老师以提供个性化支持。学校近半数学生是西班牙裔，AP课堂却以白人和亚裔为主，这让我学会理解学员多元背景。

One student struggled to write idiomatically despite possessing extensive historical knowledge. Although she was initially nervous, we discovered common ground after I asked about her Rohan Kishibe keychain, a character from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. She opened up; I learned she recently immigrated from China and was having difficulty adjusting to writing in English. With a clearer understanding of her background, I could now consider her situation to better address her needs. Together, we combed out grammar mistakes and studied English syntax. The bond we formed over anime facilitated honest dialogue, and therefore genuine learning.

有位同学虽然历史知识渊博却苦于英语表达。起初她有些紧张，但当我问起她那个《JOJO的奇妙冒险》里一个名为Rohan Kishibe keychain角色的钥匙扣时，我们找到了共同话题。她逐渐敞开心扉，我得知她刚从中国移民过来，难以适应英语写作。了解她的背景后，我能更好地对症下药。我们一起梳理语法错误，研习英语句法结构。动漫缔结的纽带促成了真诚对话与有效学习。

作者：我对题目的理解较字面（与不同家庭/种族背景的人合作），但现在看来这道题又很多解读方式。“应对世界重大挑战”最初让我惶恐——那时自认并没解决过什么世纪难题，但关注后半句“成为好朋友”后，下笔顿感轻松。

文书范文四

题目：Tell us about a significant challenge you’ve faced (that you feel comfortable sharing) or something that didn’t go according to plan. How did you manage the situation?请告诉我们一个你曾面临的重大挑战或者一些未按计划进行的事情，你是如何应对的？

范文：Reed Making Journey簧片制作记：

I slathered the string with bee’s wax as I bound the cane to the staple. Three… Nine… Twenty-seven times I wrapped the cane with the spool.

我用蜂蜡涂满绳子，将芦苇绑在钉子上。绕线三圈…...九圈…...二十七圈。

My first reed was crooked, but at least it was something.

我的第一支簧片是歪的，但至少有模有样。

Despite regular practice, I failed to make reeds of an acceptable quality, despite studying oboe reed anatomy and reed-making styles. Yet, frustration mounted, as even the slightest misalignment could ruin an entire reed—and, honestly, patience isn’t my strong suit.

尽管勤加练习，深度研究了簧片的结构与制法，仍无法制作出合格的簧片。挫败感与日俱增，因为哪怕轻微的错位都会毁掉整支簧片——说实话，耐心本非我的强项。

New plan: my friend and I decided to experiment with a 7-11 plastic Slurpee Cup. About an hour in, we realized the cup’s diameter was disproportionately large for an oboe reed. Perhaps we should’ve considered that we asked a *bassoonist* for advice on what size cup to get. We laughed in our failure together, happy to have tried something new and knowing 7/11 would always be there next time…But I still hadn’t made a usable reed.

新方案：我和朋友决定尝试用7-11便利店的思乐冰塑料杯做实验，大约一小时后发现，杯口直径对双簧管簧片过大。或许当初不该找巴松管演奏家请教该选多大杯子。我们笑着接受失败，既未尝试新事物感到开心，又知道下次肯定还会来来7-11，但直到现在，我还没有做出可用的簧片。

Time’s up: A few days before a concert, my primary reed cracked. Panicking, I asked my teacher for a reed, but they were unavailable. I cannibalized the old reed for parts and precariously frankensteined a new one. The concert was a success! It certainly wasn’t the best reed ever, but, hey, it was a working reed.

时间到了：音乐会前几天，我主要用的簧片突然断裂。慌乱中向老师求援未果，我只能拆解旧簧片零件勉强拼凑出一个新簧片。音乐会演出超级成功！虽然这算不上什么精品簧片，但至少能用了。

Lesson learned: always have spares…...

经验教训：始终要有备用件......

作者：最开始看到题目有些被吓到：MIT是要我倾诉创伤吗？后来聚焦后半句“计划之外的事情”，回答起来就轻松多了，所以我写了关于制作双簧管簧片的故事。
