Exams

Mainly GRE and TOEFL for my program. My scores: GRE 293, TOEFL 84/120 University requirement varies according to the program. I had to submit SOP, 3 LORs and Resume. In SOP basically what you have done in your undergraduate degree and what is your research interest should be mentioned and with which professors you are interested to work. In LORs basically your undergraduate faculties have to mention how you were during their class and he/she is good in particular field. In resume you need to include your education, paper publication, professional experience all in one page. If you are submitting a CV then it can be more than one page.

Fees

The I-20 for my program was $43,100 which is for one year. But actual actual cost is much less.

Scholarship

I got Teaching Assistant position for 3 semesters which covered tuition fees and also had stipend of 34,500$. I got this scholarship after one semester of PhD program based on my performance.
