The research paper will be 2-3 full pages of writing PLUS a few pages that require a map, a photo, and web references, so about 5 pages in total.
You can download/save and use this document as a “shell” (Links to an external site.) for writing your paper. Just fill in the blanks and insert your own material (writing, map, photo, references). Answer *all* questions. The map and photo and references can be based on a location you have visited, your home country, or a place you want to visit. For example, maybe you are from China and want to include a photo of a place in China as well as a location map (try Google Images). Or perhaps you are wanting to visit Japan, then you would include map and photo of Japan.
All applicants go through a series of tests that check their level of English and knowledge of formatting styles. The applicant is also required to present a sample of writing to the Evaluation Department. If you wish to find out more about the procedure, check out the whole process.
