“The SOP is an essay that a student is required to write wherein he/she has to clearly state their intentions to study abroad. A well drafted SOP is essential and can be crucial in the admission committee’s decision making process. A SOP should ideally be original, precise and focused with clarity of thought. It is your opportunity to convey information to the admissions committee which needs to be highlighted”.

SOP should include the following points:

1) Why have you selected the particular course and how it will enhance your career?
2) Why are you applying to the particular institution and country?
3) Your long term career goals and how will you achieve them?
4) In case of relevant work experience, mention the connection with the course.
5) Your accomplishments in academics, extra-curricular and sports activities etc.

Contents of SOP:
