US PhD Application Procedure

The following steps will tell you about the application procedure for Ph.D programs in the US :

Select your major: The application procedure for Ph.D programmes starts much before the actual GRE/TOEFL exams. Select the subject you want to research on, in your masters, so that it gives you a clearer idea about the subject and the topic you want to research on.

Take your GRE/TOEFL exam: The score is very important, as it determines

Shortlist Universities: Select the universities you would want to apply to, for your research. Click here for a list of top 100 universities in the US. Also, keep in mind the fee structure, your GRE/TOEFL scores, the acceptance rate of those universities and the faculty.

Recommendation Letters: The best people to write recommendation letters are are top-notch researchers in the field with whom you have worked, a faculty member from your bachelors/masters college, undergrad thesis adviser or a past employer.

Write an SOP stating why you want to join a particular program under a particular adviser, in a particular college

Arrange for your past mark sheets, and work experience certificates, since most universities require the original mark sheets and degree certificates. In case you can not provide the originals, contact the university for alternatives. Often, a certified copy of the transcript in a signed and sealed envelope will suffice

Have the GRE and TOEFL scores reported to the appropriate department of the university. You will need the institution codes, department codes, your credit card number and its date of expiration and of course, your test registration number and date of testing.
