Hi Rohan,
Your marks are exceptionally good. But to get admission in Stanford or Harvard you just not need to be perfect in academics but in extra circular activities too because they don't need a studious dumb student. In fact, they want an around. Try to maintain your marks above 85 or 90% in your every semester (it has weightage). After your GRE score followed by IELTS bands (mini 7 band needed). At least 2 or 3 year of work experience and Essays writing along with your attractive CV. The procedure is quite long.

Yes Siddharth, work experience is required for admission into the MBA programme. If you are something extraordinary they can consider you without work experience. Please go through the website carefully.

Hi Anushrav,
You must report your scores to the university and submit your application to Stanford. Your homework and application preparation should also start before you have taken the SAT, to apply to one of the most selective universities in the world. It has the lowest acceptance rate of just 4.8% so prepare accordingly.

Hi,
You need to visit the website and see which specialisation you are looking for as per your UG degree. Connect with the professor for that course and apply. The general requirements as an international student are all mentioned.

You have to appear for GRE and TOEFL to get into any foreign university not only stanford. You should spend your entire four years working in different projects related to your field. Collect as much as potential certificates. Three references of your professors. A good character in all.

Hello,
You have to be an extraordinary wiz I must say to obtain full scholarship. In addition scholarships in these universities are mostly need based that is based on your financial situation.

Hi Rudresh,
You are talking about the world's most selective university. There is no set rule on how to get into Stanford or even Harvard or MIT, etc. You must have an extraordinary profile with excellent grades, high involvement in extra-curricular activities, high SAT and TOEFL scores. Overall you must be an all-rounder. Check Stanford website and go through the admission requirements page. You have to understand the kind of students they look for and prepare accordingly.
