留学方案
案例分析
初次接触学生的时候，眼前一亮，干干净净的小伙子，很灵气，跟学生进行了申请规划沟通后，学生很快的与新东方签订了留学合同，一是对未来申请规划很清晰对方案很认同，二是自己也认可新东方这个大的教育机构品牌，很相信我们的案例及申请经验 而且学生说在新东方一直学习语言课程，有很深的情怀，在这里办理留学很安心；我们签订合同的时候是2019年11月25日，这个时候学生是大三刚开学，前两年的绩点是2.49 没有语言成绩，没有科研实习，但是学生的目标是申请美国前50的院校，根据学生目前的状况及目标。给出学生规划准备建议，建议学生在此期间在学校找老师跟着做项目科研，校外有机会的话也参与，绩点提升是关键，现在剩余的准备时间也是有限的，所以托福语言的学习也至关重要。我们的方案是，早规划早申请，占领先机所以希望在美国院校开放申请的时候就做好定校，然后在科研实习和提升学校绩点及托福学习同时进行，学生整个过程非常的配合。初次我们初选了10所院校，包含的专业涵盖计算机相关的专业方向，最终学生将绩点提升到2.81，托福冲出100达到102分，真是的非常高兴的那一刻，我们定了冲刺 匹配和保底的院校，最终非常兴奋的是，学生的梦校下了录取。申请到了东北大学的数据分析工程硕士，在这个过程中感谢学生的配合，后期老师的努力，最后取得了大家最满意的结果。
心得建议
所有准备美国硕士申请的学生，一定要合理安排好所有考试，申请，找项目找学校找老师及后期制作的时间，如果考虑权衡所有事情及准备时间是很赶的话，建议早些找机构帮助办理，我们就算定校准备材料时间上很合理了，更多的也是在这个过程中学生的配合度，此同学配合度及反馈材料速度很快，这样无形中就节省了我们很多的时间，所以如果学生不是效率极高那必须要提前来做更多的准备，给自己留出足够的时间。建议刚开始有留学想法的学生，或者准备语言考试中的学生，抓紧时间尽早咨询专业的老师，尽早规划，在有限的时间内做最有价值的事情。新东方前途出国的顾问老师们，责任心强，工作经验丰富，非常值得各位家长和同学信任。真心希望用我们的经验来助更多的学生圆梦。

Application Checklist
Please note: In order to be minimally qualified to pursue admission through the Graduate School of Engineering, a candidate must have successfully completed or is in the process of completing an undergraduate bachelors degree from a regionally accredited U.S. college or university, or its equivalent from a foreign college or university. Any offer of admission is contingent upon a candidate’s successful completion of an undergraduate bachelors degree from a regionally accredited U.S. college or university, or its equivalent from a foreign college or university.
Application. The application is to be completed online. (Paper applications are not accepted.)
Application Fee. $75 USD to be paid online by credit card
Note to applicants from Iran: For inquiries related to difficulties and delays regarding payment of the application fee, please send an inquiry and include a copy of your resume/CV via email attachment using the following site: https://coe.northeastern.edu/admissions/help
Two Letters of Recommendation. Letters of recommendation should be from individuals familiar with technical, professional, and personal qualifications
Transcripts. Unofficial copies are required at the time of application submission. Applicants may arrange to mail final, official transcripts to the Graduate School of Engineering after they are admitted, if they are admitted. To upload transcripts to your application properly follow the below steps:
Create scanned versions of your transcripts in PDF format (up to 500 KB in size)
When prompted to do so in the application, upload and attach transcripts to the online application
Requirements:
Scanned transcripts must be readable and include all courses, grades, (i.e. marks, scores, etc.) and credits completed to date.
If available, please ensure that the scanned documents should also include information pertaining to the institution’s grading scale. Typically such grading scale information is on the backside of the documents or is on a separate page. If there is no grading scale readily available, please still upload your transcripts.
International transcripts must be uploaded in English. If transcripts are not in English, please arrange to have official English translations made. Translations provided by applicants themselves are not acceptable.
Foreign credential evaluations of transcripts (such as WES) are not required or needed.
Statement of Purpose.
Resume.
GRE. Applicants may apply with or without reporting test score results. Note that in the past, the GRE was required of most applicants. The requirement has been suspended and will not be required by Northeastern University, although applicants are welcome to submit scores voluntarily. The university’s “test-optional” policy applies to graduate students applying for the 2021-22 academic year. For applicants who would like to apply and voluntarily submit GRE test score results, please arrange to have scores sent through ETS via the institution code 3665. No department code is required. Note that applicants will also have the option to self-report GRE test scores when prompted to do so on the application, and they may also upload copies of their test-taker score reports. See the official Northeastern University announcement regarding this topic for more information.
TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo. Applicants who are non-U.S. citizens or non-U.S. permanent residents, regardless of the applicant’s undergraduate language of instruction must submit official TOEFL, IELTS, and/or Duolingo scores.
Waiver:
Applicants are exempt from the TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo exam requirement if they hold (or will hold) a degree from an accredited institution located in the United States of America, Canada (excluding Quebec), United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Ireland, South Africa, Nigeria, Uganda, Australia, or New Zealand.
Minimum Score Requirement:
TOEFL: 79 overall (internet-based)
IELTS: 6.5. overall
Duolingo: 105
Sending Scores:
TOEFL: Send scores via ETS, Institution code is 3665; no department code is needed.
IELTS: Official IELTS score reports should be uploaded as a PDF directly to your application in which the Test Report Form (TRF) number is visible. This number can be found in a text box towards the bottom right of your IELTS score results page. If uploaded correctly, we will verify your IELTS scores online and you will not need to send hard copies of the score report.
Duolingo: Upon completion of the test, please select College of Engineering at Northeastern University to receive your scores
If you do not meet the minimum TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo requirements and you are intending to apply to a graduate engineering program at the master of science level, you are encouraged to apply first to Northeastern University’s Global Pathways Program, where you can boost your English language skills and academic knowledge before beginning your engineering coursework.
