How many LORs do I need for grad school abroad?

I’m applying for Master’s and PhD programs abroad. How many LORs should I expect to submit?

It varies a bit depending on the university and the specific program, but generally, you should expect to need between 2 and 3 LORs for each application. Some programs might even ask for 4, though that’s less common

Yeah, it’s definitely something you need to check for each program individually. Don’t assume they all have the same requirements. The program website or the application portal should clearly state how many letters they need.

Okay, so check each program’s requirements. Is there any difference between Master’s and PhD programs? Do PhD programs usually require more?

Sometimes, PhD programs might require one or two more than Master’s programs, as they’re generally more research-focused. But again, it’s not a universal rule. It’s best to check the specific requirements for each program you’re applying to.
