Hi,
I'm intending to start a masters degree in computer science in a top university in US/UK at the end of 2022 (haven't decided what subject specifically, currently in the middle of first degree),
and I'd like to get some clarifications about the admission process.
1. I was told that it's common to combine masters & PhD or pursue only PhD studies. I'd like to know if that's accurate and if it's missing something.
2. My native language isn't English, so TOEFL/IELTS is required (from what I've read). Which one is preferred for applying?
3. I'm studying for the GRE (general) now and plan to take it somewhere in January-March. Should I be doing now anything in addition, prior to the application open?
4. Should I apply for as many universities at once I can?
5. My application should contain grades from my degree, GRE & TOEFL/IELTS scores, and recommendation letters. Is it accurate?
Relevant links will also be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi

I do not know. I never heard something similar to what you are pointing out
2. My native language isn't English, so TOEFL/IELTS is required (from what I've read). Which one is preferred for applying?
Go for the TOEFL. However, it depends on the Univ of your choice
3. I'm studying for the GRE (general) now and plan to take it somewhere in January-March. Should I be doing now anything in addition, prior to the application open?
No. But it always depends on what are the criteria the University you are looking for or is best for you requires
4. Should I apply for as many universities at once I can?
No. Usually the target Universities are a pool of 4/5. It depends what you want
5. My application should contain grades from my degree, GRE & TOEFL/IELTS scores, and recommendation letters. Is it accurate?
Yes: LOR,SOP,GRE, GPA
Hope this helps.
