So to apply to a university abroad, you must complete an online application for the programme on the university's website. The following items will be required in the application:
GRE score: GRE is the standard test which analyses your academic fitness for the program that you are applying to. Most colleges consider the GRE as a filtering parameter. Universities receive thousands of applications, and it is difficult to read each one. As a result, they use the GRE to determine whether or not an application is worth reviewing.
IELTS/TOEFL score: IELTS/TOEFL score is simply a measure of your ability to read, write, and comprehend English well enough to get you through a master's degree programme. You can checkout the FREE IELTS resources here and get all the tips, tricks and preparation hacks to ace your IELTS.
Statement of Purpose (SOP): The most essential feature of your application. The statement of purpose is frequently written by students as an extended resume and a glowing story of their accomplishments. The admissions process isn't a contest to see who can boast the most. You must define your long-term objectives and demonstrate how you have progressed toward them. You must also explain how seriously you've considered a master's degree in terms of your profession and objectives. You're on your way to a great admit if you can convey a strong story in a brief and effective document that serves as your SOP. Great SOPs can boost even the most average profiles, while confusing ones can crash even the most powerful.
Letters of Recommendation (LOR): Many Indian applicants ignore this element. Most LORs are little more than a long paragraph of praise. It includes the recommender discussing ten various characteristics of a student and portraying the student as the Lord himself in human form. Such letters will not help you with your application forms. The LORs must work hand in hand with the SOP. There must be two to three qualities of the student that are supported by examples. Technical abilities that are relevant to the student's goals must be backed with examples. Such letters from the appropriate people might possibly get you an easy admission!
Academic Transcripts: You'll have a decent chance at a top university if you have a strong score of 80% or a CGPA of above 3.5. Your transcripts will include information about your grade point average and should be sent to the university.
Resume: Needless to say you need to include your work experience, internships, research papers, projects, extracurricular achievements and basically everything that you can to present your versatile profile.
