California Miramar university is located in California, the state with silicon value (world technology hub) I hope to look for my self an expert in silicon value that will mentor me in business software development and information security systems.

Full funding for Masters?

Congratulations....

And what program are you going for?

Unique application though- 6 pages SOP, where I was told to submit one page. You tried!

Ubah1:


Some schools require 500 word SOP, it must not be lengthy. Perhaps GSU are cheerful givers in terms of funding master's students

Demonicide:
Georgia State University you mean?

bracelum:


Who reads a 6-page SOP? I'm sure they didn't even read beyond the first page

I always tell applicants - don't make things hard for yourself

- A short and coherent SOP (1K words max unless your school gives you word count)
- 1-page resume (the average person spends 10 seconds on a resume)
- Clear LOR showing your skills AND EXAMPLES OF SITUATIONS WHERE YOU SHOWED THOSE SKILLS (highlight those skills while sending your LOR requests to your referees)

Shikenah! No long thing...

Senatorbee:

Please what of a situation where my graduate school ask me to write this for funding opportunities
How many pages can I write. Expecially when the word EXTENSIVE surface


Please write an EXTENSIVE personal statement addressing:

Why are your reasons for attending graduate school (e.g. why have you selected this path, what major goals do you see graduate school connected to/influencing in your life)?

Why do you feel you should be granted an assistantship?

As part of your experience as a GA, are there any specific skills or abilities that you would like to learn / develop (e.g. statistics, speaking skills)?

What deficits / weaknesses do you feel you currently have that may be related to your position as a GA?

What are your expectations of working as a GA / Research Associate (e.g. tasks you will be asked to complete, experiences you hope to be a part of)?

In terms of educational expertise, what areas of interest are you most interested in? What plans do you have to grow in this area?

Cocao:



This is pretty much explicit. The school is giving you express expo already. If you cannot write beautifully, employ someone who will. Long story short, tear this up!

Masters in Geoscience at GSU doesn't require GRE, reason your poor GRE score was overlooked.

ToluwalekeA:


Dont say what you dont know. Check their requirements and see for yourself. I sent my official GRE score to them cos it was part of my application checklist. Before my GRE got to them by ETS, my application was pending. A friend of mine encouraged me to apply after he had GRE 287 and still had Full funding in three good schools in the US. He is currently there right now. Cheers

That you sent it doesn't mean they require it. I have checked and didn't see it on their admission requirement. You can show me too with a screenshot.

ToluwalekeA:


When u apply online, you will see it. Plus i called the departments to formally know their requirements. Thats all the first thing i do before applying.

Ubah1:

Ubah1:


Like I said, this is just a general graduate school requirement from international students. On departmental site it's not listed as requirement. Check well. Your GRE didn't play a role in their evaluation

ToluwalekeA:


Okay. The screenshot was from College of Art and Science requirements. On the department requirement you have this that in addition to the requirements byy the college of art and science.

Well i may agree with you, buh lets wait and see other applications. Cheers

Ubah1:


Yeah, that means applicants must first meet the college of arts and science requirement. From what I have read so far from their site, the Department doesn't use it for admission purposes. That's a good one for those with low GRE score, they can look for department that doesn't lay emphasis on GRE score and apply there. Thanks for the update.

ToluwalekeA:


Also Ohio University and University of Texas at El Paso doesn't require GRE for Geoscience either MS or PhD

Jerido:
Good evening my beloved ones in the house.
Please help me out on this : if one wants to go and study Medicine in the US, what are those requirements one need for undergraduate study.
Thanks.
