How to get admission in abroad in US &any other country
Getting admission to universities abroad, particularly in the US and other countries, involves several key steps. Firstly, research and select universities that offer programs aligned with your academic and career goals. Ensure you meet the eligibility criteria, including academic qualifications and standardized test scores like the GRE, GMAT, SAT, or ACT, depending on your chosen program. English proficiency tests such as TOEFL or IELTS are also typically required. Prepare a strong application package that includes your academic transcripts, letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and a well-crafted resume. Apply by the deadlines, which vary by university and program. Securing financial support is also crucial, so explore scholarships, grants, and assistantships offered by universities and external organizations. Additionally, be prepared for possible interviews and visa applications once you receive an offer. Proper planning and adherence to timelines are essential to navigate the admissions process successfully.

2. Read the requirements and deadlines carefullyThe first step for applying to a school abroad is checking the requirements.
3. Ask for a recommendation letterUniversity or program admission sometimes require one or several recommendation letters from a teacher.

Remember that recommendation letters take time for instructors to write and they may be asked for letters from multiple students.
4. Get prepared for the IELETS or TOEFL testIf your first language is not English and you’d like to study abroad, you will probably need to take an English language test. When planning your study abroad timeline and booking your test, take the preparation time for the IELTS test into account. Depending on your English language proficiency and your ability to use the English language, as well as the score that the university requires, you’ll need time to study and get prepared for the test.
Additionally, don’t forget to book the test at least one month in advance because each test centre offers tests a maximum of four times a month depending on local demand. If you apply late, it might be full.
5. Translate and authenticate your documentsIf you’re applying to study a program taught in English abroad, you will need to translate your documents (including your diploma and grades) to English. Be aware that the translations should be authenticated by a competent authority. If you aren’t sure what authorities are accepted by your prospective university, check their website or inquire about it with an admissions official.
6. Use the online application platformsNowadays more schools tend to use an online application platform to make it easier for students to apply for the programs. Sending the documents electronically instead of by post is preferred by most schools and students as it is faster and usually less expensive or free.
7. Register for the entrance examSome countries like India and certain schools, such as medical schools, have entrance exams that test your knowledge of natural science and skills relating to subjects like language or mathematics. Check the date and place of the exam as the test usually takes place one or two months before the school’s opening day. You’ll need to register for the test in advance and if required, make a plan for your travel abroad. Also make sure that you know what to expect on test day. If possible, prepare by taking a look at a sample test.
8. Be confident for the interviewThe last stage of the application process might be an admission interview. Some schools like the University of Oxford and certain elite programs conduct interviews to find which candidates are more qualified to get into the school. The interview usually starts with why you want to study in this school or program, your background and plans for the future. Practice for the interview, be confident and don’t let the formal setting stress you out. Remain calm and don’t speak too quickly or slowly.
9. Schedule your visa appointmentTo be eligible for a student visa, your school and program should be accredited by the government of the country they are located. In most cases, after you receive a letter of acceptance and get admitted at the school, it's time to apply for the student visa. Depending on the country’s regulations and number of applicants, applying for the student visa can be a long and complicated process. Therefore, it’s better to apply for your student visa and schedule your appointment or interview as soon as possible. The documents you’ll need for the student visa application are usually a bank statement, the application form, the receipt of payment for your application and university tuition fee, your passport, medical and background information.
10. Plan for the costsYou’ll need to consider that applying to schools abroad will have costs relating to the school's entrance exam, translating documents, booking the English language test, tuition fees, and visa application fees. Don’t let this discourage you as many students study internationally on a budget, but do make a plan for your likely costs so that you can budget appropriately.

For getting into foreign universities, students are generally required to maintain /build up a good portfolio showcasing their grades, extra curricular activities and social work from 9th to 12th grades. some universities give scholarships based on an excellent portfolio. Other colleges ask you to write a 1000-2000 words essay on the topics chosen by them or on the topic “why do you deserve this scholarship“. These essays are a deciding factor for your scholarship.
If you are planning to study in the US, you can fill out the CSS form if you want financial aid but international students can only get aid in private colleges in the US so make a mental note of that.
On the other hand, if you’re planning to study in UK, most colleges there provide scholarship based on your performance in the first year so mostly you won’t be getting any scholarship until you’re in the second year.
Good luck with your admissions!
