Hello Aspirant,

For Indian students, meeting the requirements is necessary in order to pursue an MS in computer science in the United States. Here is an examination of the same:

Candidates must hold undergraduate degrees in computer science that are at least as good as those offered in the United States. They might also hold a degree in any pertinent technological field. A 3.0 GPA overall is required out of a possible 4.0 GPA. It denotes a minimum B grade with 83–86% of the possible points.

The GRE score is one more requirement for eligibility for an MS in computer science in the USA. Scores between 292 and 328 are required for students to have a better chance. In this section, the majority of universities accept GRE cut-offs. For instance, Harvard University accepts GRE 292 but Stanford University requires GRE 328.University of Washington accepts scores of 300, while Carnegie Mellon University accepts 316.

English language competence exams like the TOEFL or IELTS require strong results. The minimum IELTS score need is often 7, while certain universities, like Carnegie Mellon University, require a 7.5, while others, like the University of Southern California, may take 6.5.
