A public University, The University of Virginia was established in 1819. Also called UVA, the University of Virginia is considered to be one of the most respected public universities in the country. The University offers various programs through schools such as such as the Darden School of Business, the School of Medicine, the School of Law, the School of Nursing, the School of Engineering and Applied Science, and the Curry School of Education.
The School of Engineering and Applied Science focuses on research efforts in the following four areas - bioengineering, information science and technology, nanotechnology, and energy and environment. Graduate students can pursue a Master of Engineering, a Master of Science, or Ph.D. from any of the school’s 10-degree programs. Students can also pursue a joint M.E./M.B.A. degree or an accelerated master’s degree in systems engineering at the school.
IELTS or TOEFL is required for international students. Though if you can prove that you have studied at an English-speaking institution for 4 years and received a degree from there, then you will be exempted.
Hey Neha, UVA is a good investment for an international student. It more or less depends on the course and department you are targeting but even the overall college experience is good and worth the investment.
The university has not specified the minimum IELTS band required for admission. They have, however, mentioned the minimum TOEFL score - 90 (iBT). You can check the equivalent for IELTS.
Before you pay for the exam, do check in with the department for the IELTS/TOEFL waiver.
Hi Pranav, the university does not offer scholarships to international students. Rarely any public university in the US offers scholarships to international students. You can apply to several other scholarships offered by external organizations.
Oh, its one of the best business schools in a public university. It is a top-ranked program known for dynamic faculty and research. The MBA program offered by them is carefully thought-out and well-crafted. For a public university, the program is top-notch. There are several employment opportunities as well.
An overall acceptance rate of 36% I guess. There’s an admission blog section where you will find tips to fill the application form. Go by that, it should help you plenty.
