Statement of Purpose (SOP) for Master’s in UK

SOP (or personal statement) is an important part of your application package. The statement you write provides additional evidence of your intellectual and creative achievement. Such a statement is also the only opportunity for the readers of your application (ie. the admissions committee) to get a feel for you as a person as well as for you as a student.

The SOP is also the place where you can put your academic record into the context of your opportunities and obstacles, your long-term career goals and more.

Your personal statement should be exactly that — personal. This is your opportunity to tell a University about yourself — your hopes, ambitions, life experiences, inspirations, why study in UK, what attracts you about a specific UK University.

SOP should generally be around 1.5 pages long.

 

Resume

A well crafted resume goes a long way. It should clearly talk about your employment, education, and achievements. Generally, we recommend that your resume / CV should be should only be of one page. Here is where you can get a simple explanation on what can appear on a smart resume

 

Letter of Recommendation for Master’s in UK

A recommendation letter that highlight candidates’ achievements in academic or professional world would add great value to the candidature.

  • It is advisable to get such references from one’s academic institution (professors / directors / project guide) or from workplace (reporting manager / CEO) if you have work experience after your graduation. Your immediate supervisor is generally considered to be in the best position to have been able to observe and assess your capabilities
  • Recommendation letter should be on the letter headed paper of your College / Employer and should be signed and stamped. Your recommendation letter is NOT required to be in a sealed envelope (like in the case when you are applying to US Universities)
  • Some UK Universities also accept an online recommendation. You will need to register the referees online (in the online application portal). Your referee will receive an email from the #BSchool and your referee will have to following the instructions to submit the recommendation online. While registering the referees, it is preferred to have the Institutional or Organizational email id (not gmail, yahoo, outlook, etc.)
  • Most UK Universities will ask for 2 recommendations.

 

Work Experience Letter

Though work experience is NOT necessary for most UK University Masters, if you have done internships or worked after your graduation, then you include the work experience letters during the application stage. Take a work experience letter from all your work places.

 

Passport Copy and Immigration History

Most UK Universities will ask you to submit the front and last page of your passport. And, if you have previously studied in the UK or have undertaken any visits, UK Universities may ask you to fill an immigration history form.

 

Interview

The interview is usually the last step during the admission process. Most UK Universities will NOT do an interview. However there are some Universities where it is compulsory like Cranfield School of Management, London Business School. These interviews could be conducted by a faculty member or a staff or an alumni or a third party representative appointed by the business school. These interview are more often informal in nature and are meant for information exchange. These interviews allow university representatives to judge the candidates’ focus, passion, future career goals and personality.

Our experience says that interviews last anything between 15 to 45 minutes. These interviews may be through a telephone call or via skype.

 

Conditional / Unconditional Offer

After your applications are submitted, UK Universities will offer you a CONDITIONAL offer of admission. The conditions that you need to fulfil will be mentioned on the offer letter. It could be about finishing your final year of studies with a specific score or submitting your IELTS test score. Once you meet all the conditions, you will receive an UNCONDITIONAL offer of admission. This means you can move to the next step of making a deposit payment to the selected UK University.

 

Confirmation Of Acceptance For Studies (Cas)

Once you have made the payment, your UK University will issue a CAS which is the document that you need to submit to apply for a UK student visa. You much check if all the information in the CAS thoroughly before making a UK student visa application and get any errors rectified by the University.
