Tips for Undergraduate

The strongest applications at this stage tend to share three features: a clear, specific reason to want this particular program (not just "any" international experience), evidence of follow-through on a previous self-directed project, and recommenders who can speak to the quality of your work in detail. Generic letters from senior people who barely know you almost always lose out to specific letters from supervisors who do. Build that evidence trail months before the deadline, not during application week.
