A Ready Reckoner :

A successful entry into a U.S. based M.S. needs a lot of meticulous planning in advance. This information is primarily meant for engineering graduates. If you have decided to do an M.S. after your B.E., you should start preparing right from the second year. A typical schedule would look like this:

Second year of B.E.
- Have a passport ready or apply for one
- Gather enough study material and information on GRE, TOEFL etc.
- Start preparing from the fourth semester itself.

Third year of B.E.
- Book your GRE, TOEFL dates sometime during July with the TOEFL date lagging GRE by a week.
- Decide on the program (area of interest) and the universities based on various factors.
- Take your GRE and TOEFL between your sixth and seventh semester.

Final year of B.E.
- Based on your GRE and TOEFL scores, start applying to your chosen universities before December (during your seventh semester).
- After you receive admits, decide which university you are going to join.
- After you receive your I-20, get all other documents ready. Also block your airline ticket through a travel agent.
- This is also the time for applying for an educational loan or scholarship.

Post B.E.
- Book for a visa date sometime during June (before the last week).
- Keep your fingers crossed!
- After getting the visa, Take an student insurance and get other materials ready.
