Every college and university has prerequisites for entrance into its engineering graduate programs. Academic background is examined via transcript, GRE (Graduate Record Exam) scores, and for non-native applicants, TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) scores. Personal statements, references and interviews attempt to address personality traits and skills: motivation, perseverance, enthusiasm, organization, independent thinking, problem solving, time management, etc. Upon review of the criteria, the committee decides whether the student is a candidate for success.
