SAT Scores

Hi,
No, with this score you can't get a English proficiency waiver, as per the guidelines of the universities you should have at least 700 in CR part, so that you can show the university that you don't require TOEFL/IELTS. UIC is a good university, even I had applied to it and didn't receive an English proficiency waiver, so what I will recommend is give TOEFL to be on the safer side and if you want a smooth admission process.
All the best!

Hey Deep,
US admission process is holistic, nothing particular can assure you admission in US universities, they will look at your whole profile not just 12th marks but all the high school marks viz. 9th,10th,11th and 12th marks with your SAT and TOEFL marks and your ECs. So, you see this is a bit complicated process. Scoring high grades in SAT or 12th will not ensure you admission in the universities. You have to maintain your whole profile and show the university that you deserve the admission.
I hope you got me.

Your SAT scores are directly taken from college-board by the universities you will apply for and higher the score, better the chances of scholarships. Depending on the course, you might have very few scholarships at under graduate level, but once you enroll in a university, you will get many more. You can also look for financial aid offered by the university.

In India, none of the colleges accept SAT score. If you are an NRI, then you need to appear for SAT along with JEE Mains.

Yes, they calculate your class 12th score on the basis of class 10th and 11th marks.

Yes, you are eligible, but it varies from university to university, so try to contact the university in which you want to apply.

Hello Mahesh,
SAT scores are not mandatory for international students, however strongly recommended for freshman students. Taking the SAT will strengthen your profile, increase your admission chances and also the visa possibility.

Hi Ankit, you can apply but whether you will get admission no one can predict or guarantee. Depends on your profile and MIT's internal selection process. There is no single factor basis which they decide.
You need not apply for scholarship, all applicants are considered for financial aid at the time of admissions. Scholarships are then awarded to candidates with an all-rounded profile. All the best.

Hi Daksh,
The university suggestion can only be given if you share your profile in detail. What do you mean by a good CV and good marks?
I would suggest you to write to studyabroad@shiksha.com and share your profile. Shiksha's study abroad counselors will get in touch with you and assist you with the university selection and application process. It is free of cost service.

There is no minimum cut-offs. A score of above 1350 will be good, but it will not guarantee admissions. You must have an all-rounded profile, outstanding academics, good SAT, strong extra curricular activities and high intelligence to be considered for MIT.
