Thanks for this insight, i really appreciate your video as i’ve been really struggling to figure out what i’m missing in my application as a foreign student. ❤❤
I am doing IAL international edexcel A-levels and am predicted A* in physics chem maths and further maths and want to try to get into the chemical engineering program what would my chances be? And is there any extra curriculars that I should add onto my application?
Great inputs ..Are you from CBSE background or A level ? What is the USP for international student to get admission. ? Where can we get stats of the breakdown? Would be easier if they announce their decision earlier to decide between US and Singapore colleges ?
i did the a level examinations! like ive mentioned in other comments, i think international students who get in do tend to perform quite well in their boards! and having a diverse portfolio also helps :) not too sure where you can get stats about this but you can search online :)
hi keerthana,i am studying in cbse class 12 in India, I got 97.5 in 10th cbse board exam and am predicting 97% in 12th as well,however I don't have any national level achievements, I only have a few non academic achievements will that still be good enough to get in?
hello! i can't answer your question directly because i genuinely don't know what's "good enough" to get in but it would definitely help to have achievements that are non-academic. whilst it would be an advantage to be a national level achievement, it does not mean that you're application is automatically disadvantaged. my advice would be to still apply and wait for the outcome :) good luck!!
A lot of the teachers that I have consulted about NUS tell me that It is extremely hard to get in. I have 7A*s and 1A in my O levels and 3As in my AS (best possible grades for AS) plus I have an 8.0 in my IELTS and a 1500 in my SAT. I have applied but I'm unsure if I stand a good chance of getting in. Do you think I have a strong enough application?
hello! i think you do seem to have really good grades but just a note that NUS does look at non-academic activities in applications too - not just academic qualifications! that being said - do apply, and all the best!
@@heenajshah i didn’t get in because they require the final A level grades in July and mine came out on the 13th of August. I’ll be heading off to the uk soon for my uni
hi! im not too sure about the masters' application process but here's some resources i found online for you (www.quora.com/What-is-the-procedure-to-get-into-NUS-via-GATE) & (collegedunia.com/singapore/university/767-national-university-of-singapore-singapore/admission#). you can also email the admissions office for more information!
Hi Keerthana, I am currently applying to NUSC and your video is really helpful! As I saw the Yale-NUS College is replaced ny NUSC, i was wondering do you know if NUS-USP is still available and if so, can I still apply to NUS-USP if I apply to NUSC?
hello ! sorry for the late reply but NUSC was formed through the merger between Yale-NUS College & USP! A lot of NUSC's core curriculum is shaped by the USP curriculum, so you can no longer apply to USP now but it is now referred to as NUSC
Which grate do I need to apply NUS from high school mark Which subjects are the most important? Let me know.please explain me. I want to apply really really but I don't know how should I do
hi !! the grade and subject requirements depend on what course you're willing to take - and can be found on the respective course's website! here's the link to its application website,, i think you can find out quite a bit of information there: nus.edu.sg/oam/apply-to-nus !! good luck with your applications, and feel free to reach out if you have anymore questions :))
Hello I want to know about the Graduate Certificate courses offered by NUS ( for different subjects of Civil Engineering). Since you study there so you might be able to elaborate that more clearly. What is the relevance of that course in terms of job opportunities in Singapore?
i'm still an undergrad, so i dont think i'm the best person to answer this question! however, i understand that generally, people tend to take up such courses to increase their own learning and by extension, the job opportunities available to them. these certificates are also stackable (ie you can take multiple) for them to qualify as a higher qualification, which might open up even more opportunities. i dont know much about them per se so i'd recommend emailing into the office/ finding someone who has done these courses specifically !!
Hi Keerthanare May I ask how long you spent on your essay?... And does the topic of the essay for NUS change over time? I want to start writing my essay now for the next admission but I don’t know what the question is :((( thank you very much
hi jason!! i didn't take too long on my nus essay - i think it took me less than a day! but but its completely normal to spend longer - i had friends who spent weeks, and months even perfecting their essay! if i'm not wrong, the topics of the NUS admission questions do change over the years! however, they're moving towards short-answer questions which would be much easier to tackle :) i'll be doing another video going through the applications earlier next year as well, and you can access the questions whenever the applications open to start planning your essay! hope this helps :)
Thank you ma'am for the insights ❤ Ma'am I had a doubt that during my board exams (CBSE) I unfortunately had a very high fever which affected my marks in 2 subjects drastically and according to my prediction I could barely touch 75-76% but I have a SAT score of 1450/1600 and going to give the IELTS exam as well as I'm a State champion in Badminton and Roller Skating. Do I Stand a Chance ? 😢😢😢
Hey kertheena, in the nus website its says that if i took the state board exam in the 12th standard that i need to take sat or act but since i studied in an English medium school exams like ilets is not required and lastly when will the application window open for the 2024-25
hi!! if im not wrong, regardless of whether you study in an english medium school, you still need to take IELTS! not too sure what your question is for that part but for application window, it opens from jan till march 2024
Hello! Thank you so much for this video! I also would like to sign up for the Business Administration course but the NUS site tends to be a little confusing , hence I am unable to find the qualifications required to apply for this course. I am a student who did A level English General Language 8021, am I still required to take TOEFL or IELTS? Secondly, I have only 4 subjects (Accounting, Business, Economics and English) and not 5, therefore does this mean I am not qualified to apply?
but from what i understand, you dont need to take the TOEFL or IELTS since you have an a level qualification! and you need to have good passes in at least 3 subjects, whilst 4 is recommended. so i think its not an issue you have 4 subjects
hi! not to say that you dont have a chance if your grades are still really good - perhaps you can include in your application more information about your health issues & how that made you into a stronger person, or what you did to cope and compensate if you're comfortable with that.
@Keerthana I am not sure I want to sign up for the subsidised tuition grant from MoE because of bond. Can I apply for it now and make a decision on acceptance or not once I have been selected for it?
hello! i believe after it has been offered, (which is generally tied to your application to universities), you can choose to not sign the agreement with no penalty. however, after you sign the agreement, if you choose to withdraw from your course or break the bond, there will be liquidated damages which you have to pay!

Hello keerthana, I was wondering if the number of recommendation letters matters? Does it bring more value than only submitting one recommendation only? Also, I should submit this in the “other document (1)” section of my application right? Thank you so much!
hello ! no - not at all, i think the quality of your recommendation letters and which of your skills it talks about matters more than the quantity, unless of course your other recommendation letters talk about other skills the others don't cover - then put in multiple! if not, one really good one is enough :) all the best!

Hello I love your videos ❤️❤️❤️ I have a doubt can u tell me if high school marks are important like if we have scored less marks in high school but if we scored really well in sat will that compensate.

1) hi, after you have submitted your application form for the school - i dont think there's any other essays you have to fill unless you're applying to stay in residential colleges (apart from nus college) such as tembusu etc 2) i'm not too sure about translations, but if nus requires to submit such documents, then i believe you would need to translate it to english :)
Excuseme i have question please, what does the 2052 in the achievement section means? I have a business right now should i do 2052 too? And the is there any other things you want to tell us section, is it in essay form? Thank youu😊
hi ! not too sure what the 2052 means - will have to take a look at the application later but the "other things you want to tell us" section will be done in essay form! you can do it in point form if you would like - but my preference (and recommendation) would be essay format!
hi ! i unfortunately didnt see the 2052 so im not too sure what it means but if theres no question following that or preceding that, you can leave it blank? it could be some sort of glitch or their own notes section
Hello keerthana, small question. Does it matter if for the questions I do not use the maximum word limit. For example for the first question I only wrote approximately 200 words. Do you think it affects my chances of being accepted?
hi !! it does not matter if you do not hit the max word limit, but my advice would be to use up the word limit as much as you can and write as much as possible in a manner that is not repetitive and is clear!
hi! HAHAHA there's a lot to consider before making your decision but i've had a fantastic time so far so my opinion, when i say yes, is definitely biased! nus business is one of the top schools in asia, and its academic rigour will definitely push you out of your comfort zone :)
hi ! not too sure about this but there definitely would be :) you can refer to this for more info! mba.nus.edu.sg/admissions-and-funding/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAloavBhBOEiwAbtAJO2PpFfSmyuS0wOYwQ7CFy8BAJP_DGCPBZ2BoK7cxsFbSklPD0-baCxoCBX8QAvD_BwE#fees-scholarships-financing
Hello Since JEE Mains/Advanced/other national level engineering entrance exams results have not been out yet for the academic year 2024, so shall I apply for NTU now or should I apply when the results are out, but if i chose to apply after the results then application date would close, So i would be compelled to apply for the next academic year. So basically I wish to ask whether NTU would accept if i apply next year with all engineering exams score and a year old class 12th result? Moreover what would be your suggestion between both the ways i.e (1.apply now without any engineering exam results,with pre-existing achievements and academics 2. Apply next year with all the engineering exam results along with pre-existing achievements/academics)
hi! i'm so sorry for the delay in responding! the engineering exam results are not what are primarily taken into consideration when you're applying for ntu/ nus. your 12th boards are what they give the most weight too. they will still accept your year old grades if and when you apply next year, but i would recommend applying twice if you can :) increase your chances and who knows! you might get in this year :)
hihi ! you can check out the application guide here - tgonline.moe.gov.sg/docs/tgonlineuserguide.pdf#page=2 .. you can find more info on moe's website ~~ (tgonline.moe.gov.sg/tgis/normal/index.action)
hi ! there isn't a set rp/ score that you would need to get into nus college,, you would be assessed holistically based on your non-academic achievements together with your academic achievement. my advice would be to just apply regardless of how well/ badly you think you've done !! :))
hi victor! applications to nus are now closed so you can apply again perhaps in the next admission round (feb-mar 2024)! i'll do another applications video then taking you guys through the form (similar to this video) as well as the scholarship application cycle for next years intake! hope this helps
Hi sis....am interested for applying Ph.D in NUS in biological science with stipend...but i don't have GRE..what should I do bcz don't have knowledge regarding applying in Singapore universities
hi! i'm not too sure how things work with regard to phd but from what i've read online, GRE is compulsory for NUS admissions! you might have to look at other universities elsewhere, or drop the phd admissions office an email to confirm and ask for other options! :)
Hey Keerthana! Can you tell me your 12th percentage?... I want to have an idea about how much I need to score so that I can have a good chance of being accepted.
hello! i'm not an international applicant but i was asked to submit my o level grades (10th grade equivalent). you can refer to the application itself for the documents it requires and submit those !
omg!!! so much - i honestly love nus college so much :)) in terms of academics, i enjoy the interdisciplinary courses so much, and have much closer relationships with my friends and profs in nusc !! planning on posting a video about that so stay tuned hehe and if you have any more questions about it please do ask!!!
hello! there's no fixed mark that is a requirement but for international kids, most of my friends say that their scores are at the very least above 85%, usually above 90%!
Hey keerthana....I got 98.4% in 10th and expecting same in 12th boards....also i am confident of decent rank in jee mains and advanced....I am a national level chess player and have level 1 and level 2 diploma in indian classical music(with distinction) In 10th i got zonal rank(national rank 12)1 in SOF IMO and zonal rank 10 in SOF NSO Should I consider applying to NUS and NTU? During lockdown...i taught mathematics to 3 grade6 students and 2 grade7 students (two of them became maths subject toppers in school) Was a part of interschool basketball team but competition didnt take place due to Covid
hi! congratulations on your grades :) like i mentioned in previous comments, there's no way i can tell you what the chances are that you'll get in or won't get in - whilst your grades are pretty good, the universities look at more than just your grades! your extra-curricular activities, other skills and accomplishments etc. still, just apply & see how what the outcome is! all the best :))
@@keerthanareyou're so sweet, thank you! I've had swimming and tennis records since I was in grade 6 and I've also appeared for grade 1 and 3 of violin and passed with a distinction in each. Considering these and my 97%, do I have a possibility of getting in?
@@dwbwdbfwbfe that's amazing! i think you definitely have a possibility of getting in (everyone does btw) but your portfolio definitely seems to better your chances. still, the decision is entirely made by the admissions team and would be affected not only by your own portfolio but also by how you compare to your peers applying! nonetheless, i do believe you stand a good chance at getting in but no promises :" all the best!
Hey bro I'm currently in 11th and i really want to get into nus for further studies after 12th. I want to do cs. I hope you can continue these videos also your new subscriber 😄

Hi! I know i am late to this, and saw this video, but i found this very helpful! I have a question- how many A* do you require in O levels / IGCSEs for getting into NUS?
Hi Keerthana, I am currently a high school student in his 12th in CBSE India. I just wanted to know a few things as I want to get into the same course as you that is business in NUS. 1)I have achieved a 95% in my 10th boards and I am predicting around a 98 to 100 in my 12th boards is that enough because I have heard people say you need as much as 99 to even stand a chance as an international applicant. 2)I don't really have much on the extracurricular side although I have managed to clear 9 papers of the UK's Chartered accountancy qualification and I have achieved an Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business(which is equivalent to a bachelor's degree in short) is that enough to stand out from the crowd? 3)I also have a keen interest in researching AI tools and how I can use that in the accounting and business sense and have done countless courses on monte carlo simulations, can I list that an extra curricular? Anyways thanks a lot It was a great video!
hi rohit! 1) 95 isn't too bad of a grade but you're right to say that most international students score higher than that :)) still, i think you should apply because there's truly no harm and if other areas of your application are good enough, you will be accepted! 2) whilst clearing the papers are great, they are also looking at your involvement into other non-academic areas (sports, music, arts etc) 3) i think you can list the courses as an extra-curricular but developing a strong non-academic area to your portfolio would be recommended !!
hello!! Im an international student who will be applying to nus around 1yr later im yet in my jc according to nus application requirements i am required to give an SAT along with 3 AP exams tbh its not gonna be possible for me to give any AP exams so is it ok if i only submit my SAT score or I would not be allowed to proceed with my application without an AP exam and are compulsory no matter wht? ...... if you could pls help that would be great THANKYOU !!
And apart from this can you please tell if we have a timer within which we have to begin and submit out our application or once we being with the application process we are given time until the last date of closing to submit our application.........
hi !! if the requirements state that you need to submit ap exams, i don't think you can apply without submitting them but you can definitely write in to the admissions team to confirm with them.
@@keerthanare thankyou so much for the help but can you please share the website or the mail through which I can reach them for the same.... And should I reach them now cause I'm gonna be applying about a year later....any suggestions thankyou :)
I am preparing to apply in biomedical engineering master's. Secured the prospective supervisor. Any suggestions from your side to increase chances of selection? Thanks
hi! not too sure about postgrads because i'm an undergrad myself :" good luck with your application though! from what i've read online, i think a strong referral and exemplary test scores where applicable as well as some experience in the related field seems to be what sets applicants apart from others :)
Hi can i get some info regarding the application fee payment, plz give me your any social media account link i want to get some guidelines about the admission. Thank you!

@@bluetown6462 of course! happy to help :)
Excuseme i have question please, what does the 2052 in the achievement section means? I have a business right now should i do 2052 too? And the is there any other things you want to tell us section, is it in essay form? Thank youu😊
hi ! not too sure what the 2052 means - will have to take a look at the application later but the "other things you want to tell us" section will be done in essay form! you can do it in point form if you would like - but my preference (and recommendation) would be essay format!
@@keerthanare oohh ok!! Thank you so much I’m glad you read my comment^^ i’ll wait for your response:)
hi ! i unfortunately didnt see the 2052 so im not too sure what it means but if theres no question following that or preceding that, you can leave it blank? it could be some sort of glitch or their own notes section
Hello keerthana, small question. Does it matter if for the questions I do not use the maximum word limit. For example for the first question I only wrote approximately 200 words. Do you think it affects my chances of being accepted?
hi !! it does not matter if you do not hit the max word limit, but my advice would be to use up the word limit as much as you can and write as much as possible in a manner that is not repetitive and is clear!
Hey! I have a question! Is bba worth it in nus?
hi! HAHAHA there's a lot to consider before making your decision but i've had a fantastic time so far so my opinion, when i say yes, is definitely biased! nus business is one of the top schools in asia, and its academic rigour will definitely push you out of your comfort zone :)
Also how often can i apply for NTU/NUS?
you can apply once for each school every admission cycle!
Wut's the eligibility to join NUS ..after completion of 12th
hihi! you can check out your admission requirements here www.nus.edu.sg/oam/apply-to-nus/international-qualifications
Hi ma'am...Are there in scholarship provisions for NUS MBA??
hi ! not too sure about this but there definitely would be :) you can refer to this for more info! mba.nus.edu.sg/admissions-and-funding/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAloavBhBOEiwAbtAJO2PpFfSmyuS0wOYwQ7CFy8BAJP_DGCPBZ2BoK7cxsFbSklPD0-baCxoCBX8QAvD_BwE#fees-scholarships-financing
Hello
Since JEE Mains/Advanced/other national level engineering entrance exams results have not been out yet for the academic year 2024, so shall I apply for NTU now or should I apply when the results are out, but if i chose to apply after the results then application date would close, So i would be compelled to apply for the next academic year.
So basically I wish to ask whether NTU would accept if i apply next year with all engineering exams score and a year old class 12th result?
Moreover what would be your suggestion between both the ways i.e (1.apply now without any engineering exam results,with pre-existing achievements and academics
2. Apply next year with all the engineering exam results along with pre-existing achievements/academics)
hi! i'm so sorry for the delay in responding! the engineering exam results are not what are primarily taken into consideration when you're applying for ntu/ nus. your 12th boards are what they give the most weight too. they will still accept your year old grades if and when you apply next year, but i would recommend applying twice if you can :) increase your chances and who knows! you might get in this year :)
How can I apply for MOE Tution grant?
hihi ! you can check out the application guide here - tgonline.moe.gov.sg/docs/tgonlineuserguide.pdf#page=2 .. you can find more info on moe's website ~~ (tgonline.moe.gov.sg/tgis/normal/index.action)
If I'm giving my 12th boards in March 2024, when should I apply for NUS??
@@09amisharishabh5 i believe you can apply for 2024 with predicted grades or you can apply for 2025 entry too !
do you need a rp that's much higher than the 10th percentile in order to be qualified for NUS College?
hi ! there isn't a set rp/ score that you would need to get into nus college,, you would be assessed holistically based on your non-academic achievements together with your academic achievement. my advice would be to just apply regardless of how well/ badly you think you've done !! :))
@@keerthanare thank you!!
pls how can you help me to fill my application form ? i am a foreign student and i want to apply for the the scholarship
hi victor! applications to nus are now closed so you can apply again perhaps in the next admission round (feb-mar 2024)! i'll do another applications video then taking you guys through the form (similar to this video) as well as the scholarship application cycle for next years intake! hope this helps
can you mention your stats and ecs?
hello! i'm planning on making a new video this application cycle so will mention my stats then !! :)
Hi sis....am interested for applying Ph.D in NUS in biological science with stipend...but i don't have GRE..what should I do bcz don't have knowledge regarding applying in Singapore universities
hi! i'm not too sure how things work with regard to phd but from what i've read online, GRE is compulsory for NUS admissions! you might have to look at other universities elsewhere, or drop the phd admissions office an email to confirm and ask for other options! :)
@@keerthanare thanks
Can you plz help me and guide me to get in to nus as my sis😢 plzzz sister
Hey Keerthana!
Can you tell me your 12th percentage?... I want to have an idea about how much I need to score so that I can have a good chance of being accepted.
hi ! i didn't take the 12th boards - i took singapore/cambridge a levels instead so i can't tell you generally how much you need to score :(
above 90% is recommended
Also is it compulsory to submit 10 th grade scores or could we just add 12 th grade scores?
hello! i'm not an international applicant but i was asked to submit my o level grades (10th grade equivalent). you can refer to the application itself for the documents it requires and submit those !
It is so difficult to find that kind of content in Portuguese. But English will do, thanks :)
:))
How would you say that NUS college enhanced your experience at NUS?
omg!!! so much - i honestly love nus college so much :)) in terms of academics, i enjoy the interdisciplinary courses so much, and have much closer relationships with my friends and profs in nusc !! planning on posting a video about that so stay tuned hehe and if you have any more questions about it please do ask!!!
@keerthanare. I think ur from Telangana or Andra .
Hi which course do u think has the highest acceptance rate in the nus
hi! im not too sure but from what i hear nus business has a decently high acceptance rate - hope that helps!
hello keerthanaaa? How much mark is required in 11th & 12th to get into the nus university?
hello! there's no fixed mark that is a requirement but for international kids, most of my friends say that their scores are at the very least above 85%, usually above 90%!
Lol even i am unable clear jee mains😮
But seeing this video 😢
Telugu?
Hey keerthana....I got 98.4% in 10th and expecting same in 12th boards....also i am confident of decent rank in jee mains and advanced....I am a national level chess player and have level 1 and level 2 diploma in indian classical music(with distinction)
In 10th i got zonal rank(national rank 12)1 in SOF IMO and zonal rank 10 in SOF NSO
Should I consider applying to NUS and NTU?
During lockdown...i taught mathematics to 3 grade6 students and 2 grade7 students (two of them became maths subject toppers in school)
Was a part of interschool basketball team but competition didnt take place due to Covid
hello !! i think if you're interested in moving to Singapore and studying here, you definitely should apply!! good luck with your application
Hi... Finally where did you apply and where are you studying currently... You have such an impressive profile I'm sure you must have got in.
hi! i got 88.8% in icse and a 97% in isc. What are my chances of getting into nus / ntu?
hi! congratulations on your grades :) like i mentioned in previous comments, there's no way i can tell you what the chances are that you'll get in or won't get in - whilst your grades are pretty good, the universities look at more than just your grades! your extra-curricular activities, other skills and accomplishments etc. still, just apply & see how what the outcome is! all the best :))
@@keerthanareyou're so sweet, thank you! I've had swimming and tennis records since I was in grade 6 and I've also appeared for grade 1 and 3 of violin and passed with a distinction in each. Considering these and my 97%, do I have a possibility of getting in?
@@dwbwdbfwbfe that's amazing! i think you definitely have a possibility of getting in (everyone does btw) but your portfolio definitely seems to better your chances. still, the decision is entirely made by the admissions team and would be affected not only by your own portfolio but also by how you compare to your peers applying! nonetheless, i do believe you stand a good chance at getting in but no promises :" all the best!
thank you so much!
Wow u got 97% lmao
Hey bro
I'm currently in 11th and i really want to get into nus for further studies after 12th. I want to do cs. I hope you can continue these videos also your new subscriber 😄
Sister without ielts can i got admission?
if youre an international applicant, you'll need an english qualification test (ielts or toefl) - you can check your status + required list of documents here :) nus.edu.sg/oam/apply-to-nus/international-qualifications/admissions-requirements

Hi! I know i am late to this, and saw this video, but i found this very helpful! I have a question- how many A* do you require in O levels / IGCSEs for getting into NUS?
Hi Keerthana, I am currently a high school student in his 12th in CBSE India. I just wanted to know a few things as I want to get into the same course as you that is business in NUS.
1)I have achieved a 95% in my 10th boards and I am predicting around a 98 to 100 in my 12th boards is that enough because I have heard people say you need as much as 99 to even stand a chance as an international applicant.
2)I don't really have much on the extracurricular side although I have managed to clear 9 papers of the UK's Chartered accountancy qualification and I have achieved an Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business(which is equivalent to a bachelor's degree in short) is that enough to stand out from the crowd?
3)I also have a keen interest in researching AI tools and how I can use that in the accounting and business sense and have done countless courses on monte carlo simulations, can I list that an extra curricular?
Anyways thanks a lot It was a great video!
hi rohit!
1) 95 isn't too bad of a grade but you're right to say that most international students score higher than that :)) still, i think you should apply because there's truly no harm and if other areas of your application are good enough, you will be accepted!
2) whilst clearing the papers are great, they are also looking at your involvement into other non-academic areas (sports, music, arts etc)
3) i think you can list the courses as an extra-curricular but developing a strong non-academic area to your portfolio would be recommended !!
I am an Indian Can apply for Late application
hi ! there isn't any application portal open currently, you might want to consider trying next year!
hello!! Im an international student who will be applying to nus around 1yr later im yet in my jc according to nus application requirements i am required to give an SAT along with 3 AP exams tbh its not gonna be possible for me to give any AP exams so is it ok if i only submit my SAT score or I would not be allowed to proceed with my application without an AP exam and are compulsory no matter wht? ...... if you could pls help that would be great THANKYOU !!
And apart from this can you please tell if we have a timer within which we have to begin and submit out our application or once we being with the application process we are given time until the last date of closing to submit our application.........
hi !! if the requirements state that you need to submit ap exams, i don't think you can apply without submitting them but you can definitely write in to the admissions team to confirm with them.
@@studynow_Motivation as far as i know, the application remains open - no time limit :)
@@keerthanare thankyou so much
for the help but can you please share the website or the mail through which I can reach them for the same.... And should I reach them now cause I'm gonna be applying about a year later....any suggestions thankyou :)
What are u majoring in?
i'm a business administration major !! :)
Heyy!!! From which board u were from ?? Did you gave SAT or ACT scores ?? Is it necessary
I am preparing to apply in biomedical engineering master's. Secured the prospective supervisor. Any suggestions from your side to increase chances of selection? Thanks
hi! not too sure about postgrads because i'm an undergrad myself :" good luck with your application though! from what i've read online, i think a strong referral and exemplary test scores where applicable as well as some experience in the related field seems to be what sets applicants apart from others :)
@@keerthanare thank you
Hi can i get some info regarding the application fee payment, plz give me your any social media account link i want to get some guidelines about the admission.
Thank you!
