    • RE: University Application

      Hey Rutuja,

      These are great questions and I'll try and answer all your questions as systematically as possible. Both scholarships and university applications depend upon your overall profile. Factors such as your Statement of Purpose, Letters of recommendation, Certifications, Social work, etc. along with your scores, play a major role in your application.
      Being an 'undecided major' allows you to enter your chosen college without declaring a major and thus, allows you to explore your interests. Your SOP is what sets your profile apart from the other applicants'. Therefore, it's a highly important aspect.
      Since the IELTS exam is more widely accepted, you can definitely try taking it. However, it still largely depends upon the country you choose.

      In order to make an exact analysis, we'd need your exam scores and other details. But depending upon the program and university you choose, as long as you have a solid profile overall you can definitely get into top universities. If you need help choosing the right program/university based on your scores and preferences, you can always contact us or register with us. Hope the answer helped!

    • RE: TOEFL Listening Section should I make notes or not?

      I think it's important to make notes
      Even if it's minimal
      It helps you keep track of the structure

    • RE: What is the difference between college and university?
      1. What is a university
        A university is an institution that offers both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.
        Sometimes, universities also allow students to take up a joint degree, through which they can pursue a master’s or a Ph.D. after graduation.
      2. What is a college
        More often than not, a college is an institution that focuses more on undergraduate education. However, there are quite a few exceptions you will see.

    • RE: Colleges vs Universities?

      Difference between colleges and universities in Canada-

      1. The universities in Canada will provide you with degrees
        Whereas colleges in Canada can only give you a diploma
      2. This means that the fee will be different
        The course curriculum will be different
        And the job opportunities will also be different
