The USA remains one of the most desired locations. Walking down the bustling streets of New York, exploring the beaches of Miami or taking a weekend trip to Disneyland. We have all admired the idea of living in the US at least once. The springs in the US are even more pleasant. Most of the land is covered with a thick cloud of cherry blossoms and other flowers. As pleasing as that sounds, the student intake for the Spring additionally fruits impressive courses and admissions in some of the top universities. Often chosen by students who missed the main (fall) intake or needed more time to prepare, it offers similar opportunities.
As nature turns a new leaf, it is a good time to do the same. At least for students flying to study in renowned US universities. While the main intake was for the fall, the spring intake is both the second chance and intake for students aspiring to study in the USA. Particularly, May-July is a good time to invest in the research of universities and courses to pursue. Every year, over 2 lakh students begin their studies in the US. Assumingly, over thrice as much apply to do the same. It is clear that the competition is cutthroat. Indeed, it would be the early bird that catches the worm. As long as they utilise this time to learn how to do that.
Choosing the Spring Intake
As students are more inclined towards the first intake, the spring intake comes with lesser competition with almost the same exposure. The accepted rates at the leading US universities are significantly low. More so, if you are applying to an Ivy League. However, it is not just a competition benefit to this intake. With more time to prepare, students have better chances of getting into their choice of university. Apart from academic records, English proficiency tests also carry a lot of weight in the admission process. Managing to get the average score would just not do in the US. They can seek this time advantage to plan more flexibly, strategically and effectively and still avoid missing an academic year. Moreover, the class size with students admitted from the spring intake is smaller, leading to enhanced individual attention and learning.
