MS, PhD Admissions Process

[H. M. Nasim]

Students wishing to pursue a Master's or Ph.D. in Engineering or Sciences (Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical etc.) or a Master's or Ph.D. in Economics or Arts subjects need to supplement their application profile with GRE® and TOEFLTM scores. For some Ph.D. programs, Subject GRE®s might also be required. For admission to postgraduate courses, you need to have a Bachelor's degree. Applications to most graduate programs include details of past academic record, statement of purpose indicating the applicant's areas of interest, recommendation letters, financial statements showing adequate proof of funding and application forms of the universities. The range and choice of courses available in universities abroad are quite exhaustive and one can always find the course of one's choice.

Most universities in the US and UK have academic sessions starting in Fall (August/September) and Spring (January/February). It is advisable to apply about six months prior to your intended date of enrolment. But don't forget to check the application deadline of each university.

Funding options are available to international students for most graduate programs in the form of scholarships, tuition waivers, and research and teaching assistantships though they might not be enough to cover your entire expenses. Most aid in graduate programs is based on merit, and also depends on the funding available to each university in this regard.
