The SOP's full form is the Statement of Purpose (SOP). An SOP is an important document and an integral part of your application procedure for those looking to study abroad. A statement of purpose is written by the applicant on his/her own only.

Only your LORs need to be attested by your college or company. An SOP need not be attested/ self-attested until and unless specified by the university. If you take a LOR from your Professor/ Principal/ Dean, then it needs to be signed by the recommender along with the college/ school stamp and letterhead. Similarly, professional LORs need to be signed by their respective recommenders on the company's letterhead and company stamp.

In a statement of purpose, avoid a weak and vague introduction and conclusion. It is also advised to not write the SOP at the last moment. Apart from these points, be careful about the word limit. Do not use informal language, slang, and short forms in your SOP. Also, do not sound too flattering in your SOP. It is important to appear confident in the SOP; however, you should not sound arrogant. You should sound polite, humble, and focused. Your SOP should be free from plagiarism. Moreover, the flow of the events in your SOP should be seamless and smooth. There must be a logic behind everything that you have written in your SOP.
