• How to Apply for A PhD Abroad – International Study
• Applying to a PhD

So you’ve decided to enrol onto a doctoral degree and study abroad at the same time. This is a great opportunity to develop yourself both personally and academically. However, do you actually go about securing a PhD as an international student? To help answer this for you, we’ve created this guide to explain how to apply for a PhD in foreign universities.

Why Do Your PhD Abroad?​​​​​​​

There are many benefits to studying abroad.

Some PhD students do so as a way to develop a new language, discover more about a different culture, and to meet new people.

Besides personal reasons, undertaking a doctorate degree abroad can also for academic purposes. For example, in some countries, a particular research field may not be very popular and so there may not be many doctorate options available. In these cases, undertaking a PhD abroad will open up many more opportunities. It could also offer greater funding, lower tuition fees, better laboratory equipment and more experienced supervisors. Not only would these factors result in a more enjoyable PhD, but they could also contribute to greater career prospects. For example, you will likely have more opportunities to write publications, attend conferences and collaborate with other researchers. All of these will help you establish yourself as a respectable researcher within your field.

Is It Difficult to Apply to PhDs Abroad?​​​​​​​

It’s not as difficult as you would imagine when it comes to applying to a PhD in a foreign country. Regardless of whether you’re applying to a university within the EU, such as the UK, Finland or Spain, or to universities within the US or Asia, the processes are relatively similar.

The differences in the application process can be categorised into three areas.

• the documents you need to provide,
• the prerequisite tests you need to sit,
• how much you need to communicate with the potential supervisors before applying.

We’ve provided a basic outline of the application processes below. Although this will provide you with a good starting point, we highly recommend you look at the university websites for specific instructions and guidance before applying.

Will I Need a Student Visa?​​​​​​​

This will depend on what country you are applying to. For example:

• In the UK, applicants from outside the EU will need a Visa Tier 4 (Student). This will allow them to undertake a full-time PhD. However, due to UK visa restrictions, international students are unlikely to be able to enrol onto a part-time degree.
• In Germany, most students will not require a student visa but will require a residence permit.
• In the US, applicants will need to hold an F-1 Student Visa.
• In Asia, the requirements differ depending on the specific country. For example, in China, you will require an X1 Student Visa whereas in Singapore you will require a Student Pass.

Because of the significant differences between countries, we highly recommend it is highly that you check the requirements on an individual case-by-case basis. This is best done by checking the government website of the country you wish to apply to.

General Process for Applying to PhDs Abroad​​​​​​​

When applying to a PhD position, most universities regardless of where they’re located will require:

• Online Application – An electronic form to provide your details and attach all supporting documents. You will also need to make any application fees during this process if required.
• Academic Transcripts – Most universities need a scanned copy of your transcripts when applying. You will only have to submit official hard copies once they have accepted your admission.
• CV – This should include details of your previous education, undergraduate degree and any experiences revenant to the field you’re applying to.
• Statement of Purpose/Personal Statement – A letter which outlines why you’re applying to the PhD and why you believe you’re suitable for the project.
• Letters of Recommendation – this should preferably be provided by your undergraduate degree course tutor or a professor who knows you well.

Language Tests

If your PhD is to be undertaken in English and English isn’t your first language, most universities will require you to sit an English language proficiency test. The most common tests, in order of popularity, are:

• IELTS (International English Language Testing Systems)
• TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language)
• PTE (Pearson Test of English)

The minimum test scores will change from university to university. They will also vary depending on the research field. For example, research projects related to English Literature or Law will require relatively high scores whilst projects in Science and Engineering will require slightly lower scores. To provide an example, the University of Leicester in the UK requires a minimum overall IELTS score of 7 for Law PhDs but has a lower overall score requirement of 6 for Engineering PhDs.

Finding a PhD has never been this easy – search for a PhD by keyword, location or academic area of interest.

How to Apply for PhDs in EU Countries​​​​​​​

For UK universities, there are generally two ways of applying. You can either apply directly through the university’s website or you can make an application through the UCAS Postgraduate system .

In Spain, Italy and Germany, before applying to a PhD you will first need to pass a pre-application process. This involves checking that your qualifications meet their eligibility requirements. Before undergoing this pre-screening process, it would be beneficial to first speak to your government. They may offer advice on how your countries qualification system corresponds to the qualification system in the country hosting the PhD.

Once you’ve made your application, the university will review it and get in contact with you. For most EU institutions, they will invite you for a Skype or telephone interview with them if they believe you may be a suitable candidate.

If you require a student visa to study in an EU country, it’s recommended that you submit your application at least 3-4 months before the proposed PhD start date.

How to Apply for PhDs in USA

In addition to the English language exams mentioned previously, international applicants will also need to sit additional exams to be eligible for PhDs in the USA. These are the GRE General Exam and GRE Subject Exam(s). The GRE Subject Exam(s) you will need to undertake will be specific to your field and will be specified by the university as part of their edibility requirements.

Securing a PhD position in the United States is considered relatively difficult compared to other countries. As a result, it is commonly recommended that you apply to at least 9 different universities to increase your chances of securing a position.

How to Apply for PhDs in Asia

As Asia covers a wide range of countries such as China, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, UAE and India, their application processes naturally differ from one another. Therefore, check the specific application process for each university you’re interested to get the most accurate information.

To summarise:

• China – uses two centralised application services, CUAC and CUCAS. Both these services help international students find and apply to a PhD project in China. Students can also apply directly to a University if they wish to.
• Singapore – rather than applying to a specific research project, you will have to apply to a faculty or department within a University. Only once you have been accepted into the university department will their research projects become available to you. Like US universities, most universities in Singapore will have required you to have sat a GRE Exams prior to applying to them.
• UAE – you must apply directly to your chosen university. To be eligible for a PhD in UAE, you must hold a Master’s degree and it must be from a university recognised by their government. You will also be required to undertake GRE Exams before making your application.

How to Apply for PhDs in Australia

To apply to a PhD in Australia, you will first be expected to find and email a potential supervisor. If you’re an international student and you make an application directly to the university without doing this first, it’s highly likely that you won’t be considered for the position.

Upon discussing the project with the supervisor, they will instruct you to put in a formal application. This formal application will require the information previously outlined above.

Similar to EU institutions, if an Australian university believes you’re a strong candidate, they will likely invite you to a Skype or telephone interview.

Unlike EU universities, PhDs in Australian universities can start at any time of the year. Therefore, unless a specific funding requirement is attached to the project, there are usually no deadlines associated with applying to their PhDs. However, try to apply 3 to 4 months before you intend to start your studies.

How to Find Study Abroad Scholarships

Here are some sources of scholarships and grants that can lower the costs for U.S. college students to study abroad.

Finding Study Abroad Scholarships

Planning study abroad scholarships early is a way for students to effectively plan for their coursework in another country.

The consensus among experts on how college students who want to study abroad should approach searching for scholarships is simple: Do it early.

Just as with coursework, finances and opportunities throughout a college career, it’s important to look for scholarships and plan out the financial implications of studying abroad as soon as possible, experts say.

“It seems crazy, but we tell students to plan for studying abroad in their first year,” says Nyoka Joseph, assistant director of student services at New York University ’s International Exchange Program.

NYU, like many colleges, doesn’t allow students to study abroad their first year on campus. However, it’s important to start exploring right away if a student intends to study internationally, Joseph says.

Types of Study Abroad Scholarships

Scholarships based on academics or personal background are available.

Academic, or merit-based, scholarships typically consider a student’s GPA, past and future coursework, past projects or research, and standardized test scores, says Nick Gozik, dean of global education and an assistant professor at Elon University in North Carolina, where 84% of students study abroad at some point in college.

“There’s also identity-based opportunities available for African American students, for LGBTQIA students, for students of certain ethnicities,” he says. “There’s opportunities for students from certain states, students in certain majors or areas of interest. Those ones really depend largely on the organization or the donor and what they've specified.”

There are also scholarships specific to a student’s country of destination .

Gozik says students often don’t realize they qualify for scholarships, and even one that's a small financial amount can make a difference.

Seeking Scholarships Aids Study Abroad Planning

Another reason to apply early for study abroad scholarships is so that students can effectively plan their college course schedule.

“Planning and applying early allows you to figure out when you can go abroad, what courses you need to take before you go so that you can map out the courses in upcoming years,” Gozik says, “and you can start saving financially in advance and have that conversation with a parent or guardian.”

This is a reason why students who study abroad tend to be good planners, says Margaret Wiedenhoeft, executive director of the Center for International Programs at Kalamazoo College in Michigan.

“It takes a lot of work to prepare to go off campus, and to make sure that it's going to be a part of your curriculum plan as a college student, and not something that is going to end up preventing you from graduating on time ,” she says.

Students also should reflect and be honest about how they budget and manage their money , Wiedenhoeft says.

“Think about what you usually spend on a weekly basis when you're on campus, and then think about how and if you're going to be able to do that when you go abroad,” she says. “Are you savvy in where you're choosing to study abroad, because there are some places where the cost of living is maybe lower than actually where you're studying on campus and so your money might go further.”

For example, Joseph says the cost for NYU students studying away in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic in Europe, is typically cheaper than if they were on campus in the heart of New York City.

Colleges usually have internal scholarships that can be navigated with help from academic advisers and the study abroad office, experts note.

For external scholarships, go to study abroad fairs and information sessions, and do some digging in online search engines, experts recommend. Many of these types of study abroad scholarships are sponsored by independent foundations and groups.

“Students have to take a bit of ownership, because even if we provide the information on the scholarships that are available, it's impossible to tell every student every scholarship they qualify for,” Joseph says. “So we definitely recommend looking early on if you have interest in studying abroad.”

Examples of Study Abroad Scholarships

Here are nine sources of funding, mostly competitive, that can help pay for your travels to learn outside the U.S.

Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship

Joseph says she always recommends students attend information sessions for the Gilman Scholarship Program , which allocates nearly 3,000 scholarships a year.

To be eligible, recipients must be U.S. citizens receiving the federal Pell Grant.

Award amounts are up to $5,000 a semester, with the potential to earn an additional $3,000 Critical Need Language Award for students studying certain languages, and up to an additional $1,000 STEM Supplemental Award for students studying STEM abroad.

The scholarship prioritizes first-generation college students, those with a diverse background, the impact of the program and students studying STEM or a critical need language.

The deadline to apply for the scholarship is March 7, 2024.

Boren Scholarships 

Boren Scholarships are focused on language, culture and service.

Eligible candidates are undergraduates planning an overseas program in a country outside of Western Europe, Canada, Australia or New Zealand. The organization gives preference to programs based on their duration, focus on intensive study of a preferred language in a preferred country, and the applicant’s field of study.

Some of the preferred languages of study are French, Swahili, Akan/Twi, Wolof, Zulu, Hindi and Urdu. Students entering a STEM field are given priority.

The deadline to apply for a Boren Scholarship is Jan. 31, 2024, and winners will be awarded up to $10,000 a semester.

Fund for Education Abroad Scholarships

The application deadlines are typically in September.

Tortuga Study Abroad Scholarship

Tortuga, a company that makes travel backpacks and luggage, offers $1,000 scholarships for students studying abroad. Winners of the scholarship also receive – perhaps not surprisingly – a travel backpack.

The application requires a short essay explaining what a student hopes to take away from the study abroad experience and how those lessons will be brought back home. Applicants must be undergraduates at a four-year U.S. school who have been accepted to a for-credit study abroad program.

The deadline to apply for the spring 2024 scholarship is Nov. 15, 2023, and the winner will be announced Nov. 30. Fall 2024 travelers must apply by April 15, 2024, and decisions are announced April 30.

AIFS Study Abroad Scholarships and Grants

The American Institute For Foreign Study offers several scholarships worth up to $5,000. The smallest scholarship is for $500, and deadlines vary depending on the scholarship.

While some scholarships are based generally on academic performance, others are specifically for students who are a part of underrepresented minority groups or attending historically Black colleges and universities, commonly called HBCUs .

There are several featured study abroad programs at the AIFS Global Education Center in Florence, Italy, including a summer program where students can earn up to 10 college credits; traditional fall and spring semester programs that allow students to earn up to 16 credits; and fall and spring study programs that include an internship and allow up to 12 credits.

Global Experiences Scholarships and Grants

Global Experiences, an AIFS program, has pledged $25,000 in scholarships each year "to engage a more culturally aware workforce," according to the program website.

These scholarships are for summer or semester internship terms in various global cities, such as Barcelona, Berlin, Paris, Florence, Prague, Sydney, Edinburgh and Galway, Ireland.

Several scholarships and multiple $500 grants for on-site study abroad are intended to promote diversity, equity and inclusion . Scholarships are a minimum of $200, which is for a virtual study abroad experience, and a maximum of $2,500 per semester. Application deadlines vary.

CEA CAPA Study Abroad Scholarships and Grants

CEA CAPA, an Arizona-based organization that promotes equity in study abroad opportunities, offers more than $2 million each year in scholarships, grants and affiliation programs.

Six scholarships and three grants are distributed for programs that last at least three weeks. Scholarship awards range from $100 to $5,000, and $500 flight credits are given to those who apply with a code by Nov. 17, 2023.

Scholarships, which are administered by the nonprofit Fund for Education Abroad, include those for first-generation college students, LGBTQIA+ students , students of color and more. Some applicants may also qualify for grants that help subsidize the costs of airfare, passport applications and loss of work-study income while studying abroad.

GPA requirements vary for the scholarships. Application deadlines range from Oct. 15 to May 1 for five study abroad terms: spring, late spring, summer, late summer and fall.

The Corinne Jeannine Schillings Foundation Scholarships

The Cambridge Trust offers Cambridge International Scholarships to Indian students for undertaking research leading to a PhD degree at the University of Cambridge. The Cambridge International Scholarships aim to ensure that the highest-scored Indian students receive full financial support to undertake PhD studies.

In this article, we discuss the steps involved in applying for a PhD program. It’s noteworthy that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. It varies across countries, universities, and even different programs within the same university. Yet, I have outlined the most common steps which a student needs to follow to find a PhD abroad.

1. Why Pursue Your PhD Abroad?

Studying for your PhD in another country offers many advantages.

Some do a PhD abroad to learn a new language, immerse in a different culture, and make global connections. But it can also have several academic benefits. Sometimes, your home country may not work extensively on your area of interest. This can limit your study options and may not be a fit with your research goals.

Studying abroad opens doors to a wider range of opportunities. You find better funding, superior laboratory facilities, and more experienced mentors.

These factors enhance your PhD experience and boost your career prospects. You’ll get more chances to share your work on global platforms and team up with others. This helps you become well-known and respected in your field.

2. Discover your Research Interests for PhD

The first important step in starting your PhD journey, is to figure out what area you want to research. This process demands careful consideration as you finalize your topic of interest.

It’s crucial to have strong reasons and academic experience in your chosen field. You don’t have to pick an identical topic you studied before. But many students like to continue with their previous research topic.

Your chosen research interest area lays the groundwork for your entire PhD journey. So, avoid picking a topic you’re not really excited about. If you’re not passionate about it, it might make it harder for you to succeed in your PhD studies.

3. Shortlist target countries for PhD application

Choosing where to apply for your PhD is a big decision because it will shape your academic journey. This decision depends on various factors. Some of them are research infrastructure, funding opportunities, and your area of interest.

When you’re picking where to study, check out the universities in each country. Make sure they have what you need for your studies and your future job plans. Consider factors like university reputation, research opportunities, and quality of life. Choose a place where you’ll have a positive PhD experience.

4. Narrow Down PhD programs and Potential Supervisors

Deciding to start a PhD means you have to choose the right program and supervisor for you. When it comes to finding the ideal match, there are no quick fixes or easy shortcuts. It’s essential to select a supervisor whose expertise aligns with your chosen topic.

A good idea is to send a polite email to possible supervisors. In the email, you can mention your past work, thesis, and a bit about yourself.

When looking at possible supervisors, think about their academic and research history. Also, see if they’ve worked on similar thesis projects before. You can also ask how many students they usually work with and what help they give.

Keep in mind that busy supervisors receive many requests from PhD students. So, it’s crucial to show genuine interest in their area of study. Showing enthusiasm for their research can help you stand out among other applicants.

It’s important to keep in touch with potential supervisors. This helps you form a relationship with them and get useful advice for your PhD application. If you search well and stay in contact, you improve your chances of getting into a good PhD program.

5. Organize your application materials before you apply for PhD abroad

Preparing your application materials for PhD programs demands meticulous attention to detail. Review the specific requirements of each program as you compile your application file. You should adapt it to meet the distinctive admissions requirements of each university. Generally, common elements include:

• Graduate School Application Form
• Personal Statement
• Statement of Purpose
• Letters of Recommendation
• Transcripts

Let’s pause for a moment and consider the gravity of this situation. Your application isn’t just paperwork. It’s your chance to prove how much you care about your field of study. It’s the first impression you make on admissions committees. This sets the stage for further evaluation and potential interviews.

So, fill your applications carefully. Ensure that every detail reflects your academic prowess and dedication. Make sure you give the schools everything they ask for to make your application strong. Include everything that showcase your credentials and commitment to your field of study

6. Apply Early and follow up

While applying for a PhD abroad, submitting your application on time is crucial. Universities have strict deadlines. They do not review applications submitted after the deadline. Rushing through the process in a mere 10-15 days won’t suffice.

In USA, application deadlines fall in the autumn preceding the program start date. So, you should start gathering materials and devising a plan in the spring beforehand. If you want to start a Ph.D. in August 2024, you’ll probably need to apply by October or November 2023. So, you should start your application around April or May 2023.

Submit all required documents well in advance to avoid any last-minute rush. Twelfth hour submission can reduce quality, as you may not have time to revise your materials. It can also delay the submission of your references which is really bad for your application.

So, it’s important to plan ahead and submit your application timely. This gives you the best chance of success.

Follow the steps outlined in this guide to navigate the application process effectively. Remember, your application is your chance to show your passion and potential. For help, feel free to check out the services offered by Road To Abroad.

Remember, your PhD journey begins with that application form. Make it count.

7. Check Student Visa Requirements

Whether you’ll need a student visa depends on the country you’re applying to. Here’s a brief overview:

• United Kingdom (UK): If you’re from outside the EU, you’ll typically need a Tier 4 (Student) Visa for a full-time PhD. Part-time degrees may not be an option due to visa restrictions.
• Germany: Most students from outside EU will need a study visa.
• United States (US): Applicants will generally need an F-1 Visa.
• Asia: Requirements vary by country. For example, China requires an X1 Student Visa, but Singapore mandates a Student Pass.
• Canada: Most international students will need a study permit.
• Australia: International students typically need a student visa.

Visa requirements differ significantly between countries. So it’s essential to check the specifics for each case. Visit the official website of your chosen country for accurate and up-to-date information.

Several criteria typically require consideration when pursuing a funded PhD abroad.

1. Academic Excellence: Strong academic performance throughout schooling and college, including a high GPA.

2. Educational Background: To pursue a PhD abroad, you often need a master’s degree. But, some science programs allow exceptional undergraduates to progress directly to doctoral studies. Reagardless, getting a master’s degree is a good start for doing research for a PhD.

8. Statement of Purpose: A well-crafted statement of purpose is essential. It should reflect your research interests, goals, and reasons for pursuing a PhD. It should also align with the objectives of the program.

9. Admission Criteria Variation: Eligibility criteria vary among universities and even within programs. Some institutions may have more flexible requirements, while others maintain stricter standards.

10. Application Strategy: Pay attention to what each program desires and adapt your applications. This may include highlighting relevant experiences and research skills. Clearly state your academic and professional goals. Meeting the criteria can help you get into PhD programs abroad.

9. Which exams do you need to clear to pursue a PhD abroad?

Many PhD programs abroad ask PhD applicants to submit different test scores. These are:

(1) Tests to determine academic preparedness- GRE & GMAT .

(2)Tests to check English language abilities- IELTS & TOEFL .

They help the recruiters to assess your subject-related knowledge and logical reasoning aptitude. They want to ensure that you have proficiency in the English language to complete your PhD.

GRE scores are most commonly required for PhD programs in the USA and Canada. But owing to COVID-19 pandemic many universities are offering GRE waivers. Australia and European countries like UK and Germany usually do not ask to submit GRE scores.

This requirement also varies from university to university and subject to subject. It is always best to check the requirements on the PhD program page before deciding to appear for the GRE test.

Graduate Schools usually do not specify a particular score or a cut-off score for GRE test. Some programs will tell you to score as high as possible. Others will share the average GRE score of the previous batch so you know what score you should aim for.

GMAT scores are commonly required for PhD programs in the USA and Canada. But owing to COVID-19 pandemic many universities are offering GMAT waivers. Australia and EU countries like UK and Germany usually do not ask to submit GMAT scores.

This requirement also varies from university to university and subject to subject. It is always best to check the requirements on the PhD program page before deciding to appear for the GMAT test.

For English, you have to take one of the two tests – TOEFL or IELTS. TOEFL is more popular in US and for other countries students usually choose IELTS. US universities also accept IELTS. There will be no problem if your choose to give IELTS test for US PhD Programs.

Minimum test score varies from university to university and program to program. So, it is always a good idea to check the requirements of the program you are planning to apply to. Generally, the minimum IELTS score for a PhD is usually 6.5, with at least 6.0 in each section of the exam.

Many programs may ask for 7.0 or 7.5. The minimum TOEFL iBT score for PhD programs is 90, but it can be as high as 100-105 for some programs.
