Hi. Can you please make a video on this but for International Students pls? I would appreciate it very much!!
I relly need this too
Yes
same as this people....for international students and scholarship.
Yes, please!!
yes please it would be so useful
Thank you so much! You channel has been too much fruitful for me.
One of the best video I have watched. Thanks for such great information ❤️
If u hv any passion, then take those passions to next level by participating in various contests... Get Olympiad medals.. get Awesome ranks in jee, kvpy, etc.. just being ur best version : )
@@satvikvarun6386 bro is jee and kvpy enough for mit ?
@@udaykumardivvi617 no
This was an amazing video. Thank you
Question: If I do not have contact to a previous teacher that specialised in Humanities/Social Sciences, then does that mean my application is systematically denied?
@@pawangupta8024 do u know what could i do it in that case?
@@camille3571 ask your English teacher, that’d work. How’d it go?
Video starts at 2:06
Thanks for the info! Currently a junior and trying my best to increase my chances for MIT
Good luck 🍀👍
Did you get in?
@@brecksneat4829 Change of plans... I'm going to Princeton :)
Hi bro ru interested in mit joining ...I am also interested in joining let's help each other
update?
I’m wanting to transfer to MIT, after community college I have 4.0, I’m going to to take ACT this summer.
how would one get into MIT for a master's program?
Thanks you so much
5:53 my little brother thought you only needed to do one year of high school
F
What...?
Wtf...
Oh my sweet innocent child..........
@@smokefire_6973 rip
I really would like it if you make a video for international students
Collegevine? what does biographical information mean and also because the my MIT application is down "this website is no longer available" what do i do?
Thanks
Hey in MIT's website they are telling that they will not take marks of SAT and ACT because of covid many people can't write those exams..
Thank you for your video. My nearly 15yo daughter wants to apply for engineering studies at MIT. We live in the UK. I truly hope her A exam would not be a problem in the future.
Yeah, Brexit might cause issues. I'd do some more research.
I live in the Netherlands and also have interest in MIT, and that has a pretty direct link from the EU to the US. UK might be different, she'd have to be truly exceptional.
@@cartoods195 Yeap.. Polish girl raised in the UK.. sounds be a bit complicated
I’ve been been told she’ll be offered only subjects in a college- maths, further maths, physics.. she cannot take computer science as an additional A level.If she chose IT then she must forget abt physics it further mathematics.
She didn’t make her decision. She’s dead focused on MIT… her goal is aerospace engineering or coding/ programming/ cyber security
@@monikaskirzynska-podgorska4579 obviously this is your daughters decision, but computer science is definitely holding a better chance. aerospace is great, but you need to be a very specific person to be picked to do aerospace at MIT. if she:
- Had an interest in Aerospace and rockets from an early age, (5, 6, 7)
- Is extremely good a physics.
- Was constantly at the top of her class, from day 1.
- Is actively completing internships and other courses at big aerospace centres.
She might hold a chance, even THEN it's not guaranteed. Computer science does have more applicants, but overall a tiny bit easier. Still she'd have to be incredible, like, 1 in 1,000,000.
@@cartoods195 so.. in fact.. she always was on a top of her year in maths. She recently won Year 10 maths competition on Manchester University ( 2 months ago). If her school let her take maths GCSE earlier she could go though it this year ( not next year). She has private tutors since primary school.
Physics- she’s more interested in aeroplanes than aerospace stuff. She’s good with this subject but definitely maths is her hobby
What abt engineering?
@@monikaskirzynska-podgorska4579 On the topic of it (unless she has a great interest in engineering) apply with maths. At the end of the day, she should just apply as herself and know that if something does go wrong, MIT is the wrong path. If she disguises herself as something she is not the rest of her life will be hell. She does sound amazing, and if her GCSEs go well it sounds like she has a good chance. Good luck!
Appreciable,
for me i need a scholarship in aerospace engineering at MIT in the year 2022
Same👍
Ayy me too! You should check out my aerospace videos.
@@AeroCraftAviation me too
@@nikhilpathania5108 Good luck to you then! Hope to see you on campus next Fall!
People do not just get a scholarship to MIT, you need to be a special kind of person not just anybody
What about the students. how want to join in graduate program at mit
I know this is late, but I am a freshman attending an early college program from my school. Will physics, etc. classes taken at a local community college count towards the high school recommended classes? Would it be better, or worse, or the same? Thank you.
Regarding the first part, the majority of schools allow community college classes to count towards high school recommended classes/high school credit. As long as the classes meet high school requirements/give high school credit, it's pretty beneficial. College classes are generally harder and have heavier courseloads, which will help build your character/academics. However, it might be worse if the classes you're taking has a curriculum that differs too much from the high school classes.
Also, taking cc classes could be a great ec (especially since you're a freshman) because it indicates you're a hard-worker and ability to handle challenges.
(I'm a sophomore so I dont know much, definitely ask your counselors or go on college vine for more accurate info)
Hi. How will admissions be navigated now that subject SAT tests are canceled in the US? Thank-you!
MIT is now requiring the SAT and/or ACT again. Those specific subject tests (SAT II Math, etc.) appear to be gone forever though. Having a good transcript is always critical.
Can I submit more than two recommendation letter
How would the profile for an engineering student look like while applying?
You should be with high academic records and high score in exam such as SAT and GRE and in tofel as they mentioned in MIT website......
I really want to get in MIT but hearing all of this- especially when my school doesn’t even have clubs or just activities in general. Idk what to do. Any tip for international students?
Look outside your school.
@@sameenh7503 i do but my parents don’t let me do anything.
Start a club yourself in your school
@@nahidarojoa559 i can’t do that my school doesn’t have things like those
I'm in a similar position. But you can just talk about what you do out of school and include jobs etc.
I am super interested in getting into MIT for my Masters degree. Can anyone tell me the mimimum GPA requirement out of 4.0
What if you been out of High School for 10 years joined the army traveled the world and went to various different schools for various different subjects but have yet to complete college and want to apply to MIT? What is required of someone who has a well expired SAT no connections to teachers but currently is sitting on a high GPA from an online college?
You need to demonstrate academic maturity. Good rec letters are important and some endeavors that show you are academically serious. Volunteer in a research project and achieve some tangible results. Test scores and grades are important but so many applicants have those so do something that stands out.
MIT isn't really a good school for alternative education -- think about things like Harvard Extension School or community college or Columbia General Studies.
Transferring is .... difficult.
So if I work after school vs. Extra Curriculars I can't go? I grew up faster. I know how to budget. I know how to save. I believe in Dave Ramsey. I paid my own tuition in the CC I went to in the summer. I plan on having no debt upon graduation. That won't count. Shame.
I think she just meant that having extracurriculars will help...not that it's an absolute. And congrats on growing up faster?
Why would you want to grow up faster? What made you not enjoy childhood?
Wait after my TOEFL IBT test, I'll apply in MIT university.❤
Please can you do a video for masters degrees entry🙏
Only SAT or ACT exam requires ??
What if I do AP tests instead of SAT Subject Tests?
as of this year, MIT no longer requires the subject tests
is there any replacement for SAT subject tests, since they are no more a thing.
U don't need em
Iys a very explanatory video
hi,
I wont be able to take calculus in high school. so does that mean that I would not qualify for mit?
Thank you!
Hi bro ru interested in mit joining ...I am also interested in joining let's help each other
@@allinone2781 I love this!
I took biology regents in 8th grade and didnt have to take biology in high school. Does this count?
Not an interesting achievement... USABO/IBO would be better (more appropriate).
I have a query. MIT has two portals, MyMIT and admissions portal. In which one do we have to make an account and apply?
Hi Rushaan, you should start with the MIT admissions portal: apply.mitadmissions.org/apply/
@@CollegeVine ohh..ok...Thank you so much...I have already started it👍
@Ail Kum yes of course you can.
@Ail Kum I don't see any relation between why biology would be required for studying computer science...try emailing them tho....
Is high school physics a requirement to be considered for admission to MIT? Although physics is offered at my school this upcoming semester, AP physics is not. I attend a small magnet school and have limited choices in class availability.
Hi! There are no courses required for admission into MIT. They do have recommendations (which you can see here: mitadmissions.org/apply/prepare/highschool/), but they recognize that not every high school will offer these courses. Since they will already know what your high school offers based on your guidance counselor's report, the best thing you can do is take the courses you're interested in as they relate to your major.
Hey idk if it's too late for me to be saying this, but MIT can see that you don't have AP physics as an option. If possible, try to get into a physics honors class. If you can't do that, just do a physics class
Is there cyber security masters in MIT ?
I’m from Italy and here there aren’t any SATs and all the tests you mention, am I automatically denied?
gaia de arcangelis no
No, you can take SAT exams in some of the major cities in Italy (Aviano, Duino, Florence, Genoa, Gricignano D'Aversa, Lanciano, Milan) you just needed to pay an extra amount of $28.
They are test optional just for this year, besides all you should meet the rest of the requirements.
anche a me piacerebbe saperlo, ma almeno per me i costi sono proibitivi
Com'è andata? Anche io vorrei mandare l'application e non ho fatto nessun test aiut
hi , Mit is my dream school since i first heard it's name . I live in India . My father has been expired since Jan 2020 . and my mom ears about roughly 2080 dollars a year . Can you please make a video on how to get in as an International student , and the requirements for a fully-funded scholarship ?
Bro, you will get full financial aid if you are admitted as MIT is need blind so all you have to do is focus on your passion, extra curriculars, SAT, SAT subject tests and TOEFL/IELTS or any English test. You can do it. Don't worry about money to afford it. It is one of the most generous institutions out there. I also love MIT and aim to be there once. Best of luck. Check, my reply to a comment made by 'L' named guy above yours, you will get more motivation and way for success to MIT.
@@mananpatel6654 thank you for the motivation aswell as information
oof
Question: i am from india, and i want to go to MIT for Astronomy or aerospace engineering to become an astronaut. I thought i cld go directly into MIT after 12th standard, but my parents say that after 12th standard i will have to go into another college and study there for 4 years before getting a scholarship in MIT or going into MIT, can you guide me which path to go. Overall i want to get into MIT, i would rather say Need
i think you should appear for astronomy Olympiad (NSEA), that will surely boost your application
@@aryanmehra7486 yes, by going to iit foundation classes it will help, but i wanna use financial aid to get to under grad, so what shld my path be
I want to get complete information about its finance
What if I am an international student?
Thats also my case, i am brazillian
@@iami5360 I'm indian
me too i am indian!
yes please!
@@kiwin9488 I am malysian,I also hope to get in not but the entrance rate becomes lower and lower year by year
And not a single one of the links you mentioned is actually in the description 🤣
Thanks for letting us know! We've added them to the description.
@@CollegeVine omg thank you
I am brazilian and I would like to know if there is any possibility I get in harvard/MIT/stanford/berkeley/chicago
There is but you don’t just get to waltz on in, you need to first apply and be accepted then get a visa for education which would let you into the country to begin with, there is also the money and considering you are on a visa you will not get college Aid so you have to pay a LOT of money and a scholarship is super unlikely
@@adammohamadali1891 ah yes but all of that is ok, it’s just because hum the acceptance rate seems so low that it seems impossible to get in if you don’t have access to AP/IB courses
Hi bro ru interested in mit joining ...I am also interested in joining let's help each other
ok
If you are in middle school and are homeschooled, would you recommend going to a school for high school?
Depends on your circumstance, I would say. If the homeschooling is for safety reasons or because you feel it offers a better education than the schools in your area, I would stick with it and specify those reasons to colleges. It will undoubtedly require some extra effort on your part, though, to be very descriptive and transparent about what your home curriculum and process entails because it will be more difficult for colleges to determine your academic competency without the more standardized, impartial grading system that a typical school would offer. Ultimately, though, it comes down to what works best for you. For reference, I'm an MIT student.
Luke Robitaille is homeschooled. Pretty sure he'll have his pick of colleges.
Hint: Luke Robitaille is the only back-to-back MATHCOUNTS National Champion and three-time IMO gold medalist.

What subject does astronomy come under, chemistry, physics or biology
Physics
This video made me realize one thing. There is no chance I will get into MIT. I will still try though. Thank you soo much for this video
what ended up happening?? where do u go now
how did you have 2022 applicant info in 2019?? how far in advance does on apply????
The class of 2022, as in they graduate in 2022
Hey! Does a 45 ib benefits you in the application?
45 is "competitive" -- not an advantage. Advantage is like International Science Olympiad gold medals (as you probably know).
They dont requiere SAT subject tests anymore right?
Nope! SAT IIs are no longer a thing.
my mit is dismissed now, how else do we apply?
Google "MIT apply" the applications are live now
Can I use Cambridge Alevel to apply to MIT
No
6.74% is huge!
My grade 9th result was bad😭,but the others are excellent.so do you think that i can get to MIT?
Yeah i think so I have eh grades too but I have a good story to tell so yeah
Hi bro ru interested in mit joining ...I am also interested in joining let's help each other
Is it posible to get into mit for 2nd undergrade?
No
You have to climb Mount Everest first, or maybe even visit the moon.
Then, MAYBE, they'll consider taking you.
Does the transcript include grade 9 and 10?
Yes
Okay i have a question do you like apply to mit 3 years in advance, because then why is year 2022's applicants already picked
2022 is the college graduating year lol
If a student is accademically strong but not that much good in extracurriculars, does he will get a admission in MIT..
My guess is that it depends on how passionate that person is with academics and what they did in their high school career to demonstrate that (research, honor society, etc.).
Unlike Ivy leaves MIT does not actually look that deeply into EC
Well why they look at extracurriculars what if i don't like sports but i m really good at maths or i m a math prodigy they i get into it
Academically strong like what? National-level to international-level accomplishments and what demonstrated fit?
i want to become a physicist but no one is allowing me to be and also l am not allowed to go out of country but joining MIT is my only dream and i also have financial problem sooo!!!
how do i apply if i am from sweden? i really want to study at MIT in 2022
Me too

No
@@alejandroperez6032 why
@Good Boy bro did you cleared jee for iit or neet for mbbs
What do you mean by math one and two? Like the first and second math you took in high school?
Hi Ava, Math 1 or Math 2 refers to the specific subject tests. You can learn more about Math 1 and 2 here: blog.collegevine.com/sat-subject-test-math-1-vs-math-2-which-one-should-you-take/
MIT no longer requires Subject tests anymore
what are the scopes of physics because no one is allowing me to study physics because in there point of view it has no scope for females
Hey, i was a competitor in a robotics competition, but i didnt win, do i still have a chance to go to MIT?
Depends on placement, rating, review and what u built in the competition
@@varunnair420 it was a basic little mbot robot nuthin much
20k applications. Huh, preety easy for 'jee' and 'neet' aspirants.
Very self-selected. Not everyone applies to MIT. It's usually something like top 1-3 students and/or top STEM student.
Don’t destroy the universe would be a start
I am never going to make it.
So real for that
Well my son is in last year of high school but we aint from America we are from Kenya
Mambo
Zahra Ahmed so? He can still apply it's fine
He can still apply and get in. My sister (she got in) has a boyfriend from hongkong who also got in.
im not gonna get in...
Yes can you make one for pakistan
Course 6 FTW!
I'm from south Africa
Ane I'm busy imagining things
But you could still try, don't just say that you can't get in. If you try you would still have a chance of getting in, if you don't you will never know and automatically have 0% of getting in. Even if you don't get in, you would know that you've tried your hardest and won't have any regrets. (◍´꒳`◍)
Buddy, Elon Musk was from south Africa yet he went to the University of Pennsylvania You're Fine.
the word "physics" have missed in 6th minute
it means that there is no hope for students from central asia . it would be easier to say that there is no way you can apply and become student of MIT. this might sound harsh but it is the reality. in this way you'll kill many ambitious student's initiative to become an engineer or expert related to engineering and science
Central Asian countries are not attuned well to MIT (English, culture, extracurriculars, rigor of curriculum, educational system, etc.)
I GOT IN...
Really what where ur extra curriculars
I'll never be able to get in
