King’s College London has a selective admissions process, with only a 13% acceptance rate. However, our success story with Clare Jos is proof that getting into KCL is not impossible. Clare completed her UG in Information Science from Visvesvaraya Technological University with a GPA of 3.31 (4.0 scale). She scored 109 on the TOEFL and 321 on the GRE. With Yocket Premium, Clare was able to get admission into KCL for an MSc in Artificial Intelligence!
Here are a few tips we gave to Clare to improve her chances of getting into KCL:
Tip 1: Emphasise research experience:
Even if you have limited formal research experience, highlight projects, publications, or any independent research initiatives you've undertaken. This demonstrates your analytical skills and research potential, which KCL values. Emphasise how your research interests align with KCL's faculty, research centres, or specific projects to demonstrate a clear fit.
Tip 2: Choose strategic references:
Select references who can speak specifically to your academic abilities, research aptitude, and overall suitability for graduate study. Provide them with your SOP and information about the program at KCL, empowering them to write strong, supportive recommendation letters.
Tip 3: Address potential obstacles:
Demonstrate strong English proficiency through excellent IELTS or TOEFL scores. Thoroughly research various financial aid and scholarship opportunities relevant to Indian graduates to support your studies at KCL. Clearly showcase your financial plan, if possible, within your application materials.
