Aspirants who wish to pursue an undergraduate program in the US must start their preparations from the ninth grade itself due to the tough selection process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Institutions in the US receive applications from across the globe and in order to uphold their reputation, academic standards and competitive learning environment, the institutes work on understanding the applicant\u2019s overall profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The admission committee takes various parameters into account such as the candidate\u2019s minimum grade point average requirements, candidate\u2019s resume, essays and statement of purposes and letter of reference from the institution last attended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Standardized tests measure a student\u2019s problem-solving and critical thinking capabilities along with English language proficiency while GPA ensures the consistency of the students in their academic journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essays and Statement of Purposes help the colleges in understanding the student\u2019s perspective about his preferred course, institution, profile, goals, etc., while the candidate\u2019s resume provides an understanding of their professional, academic and non-academic achievements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the universities will be able to understand the student\u2019s academic and professional achievements from a third party\u2019s perspective through a Letter of Recommendation. The candidates must write at least three to five essays for each college on various issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates must also apply to nearly five to ten universities to ensure that they are admitted to one university. Along with the other procedures, video and in-person interviews are held to assess interpersonal skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides academics, leadership skills and extracurricular activities help in understanding the complete profile of an individual. Colleges and Universities in the top 25 also assess the candidates&#8217; family background, parents&#8217; educational qualifications and financial status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because the universities prefer students who have excelled in academics and non-academics in the face of personal challenges. Universities tend to choose the students with a challenging childhood and the best academic criteria over the one who possesses only the best academic record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experts also suggest that if the parents have graduated from well-ranked universities in the US, the legacy helps their children in getting admission preference. These requirements are not consistent across all the US institutions but a student can refer to the preferred institutions\u2019 websites to get to know the conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To know
