  • Standardized tests like the TOEFL or IELTS may be required if English is not your first language. There are probably English proficiency exams offered by certain universities.
  • Send a curriculum vitae (CV), or resume, outlining your publications, research experience, publications, and any noteworthy accomplishments, along with your academic and professional history.
