thank you very much for prescribing this method. I am a Law graduate and a full time lecturer in bangladesh. I was hoping to secure a PhD fellowship in Australia and i came across this video. Definitely going to give the suggested email format a try for finding potential supervisors for my PhD.
Wow! This seems to be the best video I have watched on you tube about sending emails to professors. I have a question Can I easily secure a professor even if my undergraduate research & qualifications isn’t the same as the professors area of research
Yes you can as long as you can convince them with your other credentials like CGPA,Course Works, Test Scores (GRE, IELTS) or Your interest in their research works etc, thank you 😊
I have mailed to 10 professors i got response from one to have interview, and 4. Professors told me to apply to the college and they said it will be considered what does that mean?
@@Rani-k6n If they take interview and then say to apply! Your chance is high! But without interview if they just say you to apply it’s just a generic response
Great explanation! I'm confused, like For sending an email, Should we write Cold email (generic or customized) on "Compose Email " section in an Email and after that I should attached my Cv as pdf format Or should I send them both Cold email as well CV in single pdf format? Which one would be better way to send email
@saifatique I think you got me wrong I'm trying to ask you Do I need to write Generic mail on "Compose Email" section (in Email , it's below the subject ) Or just add both well cold mail in single pdf format together
Thanks for the strategic information in a different style.....! I would like to ask you after sending a generic or customized email how much time should I wait for his/her reply? Do I need to send a follow-up email in that case?
Very helpful video brother. I had a question: when applying for MS, when should I talk about assistantships? When the conversation is all about research works, should I just simply chime in my question regarding funds?
For fall PhD admission: if you are an international student you shall start sending email from 1 year ago. Like if you want to start your PhD from Fall 2023 then you shall start sending email from September of 2022! In this case ideal time is from September to December
Thank You for this immaculate video Saif Bhai. I just have one question. My MS in International Affairs is starting this fall in the US and I do not have a research background in my undergrad (My BS was mainly a taught program). How can I reach professors at Grad school and convince them to grant me funding or TA/RA position without prior research hisyory. I will deeply appreciate your response on this. Thanks!!!
Can we email them before applying in that particular university, like ask them and if they give a good sign then we apply since each university has some application fee.
Thanks for the information. You have discussed about very different aspect. I want to know what should I do for Teaching Assistantship, I guess this doesn't require to have the similar research areas as the supervisors? For research assistantship we should mail to Professors and need to have the research experience/publication. But for the teaching assistantship, does it compulsory to have publication or notable research experience?? I hope you would reply. Thanks.
Hello Sabiha: Sorry for the delay. I have made a video based on your question. Sorry for the poor sound quality though as I wasn't prepared However enjoy it here: th-cam.com/video/_jxjwiqjAp8/w-d-xo.html
Hi thank you for this information, can I have been sending mails to professors in my department but I haven’t gotten any positive response , I have an interview with a professor on Tuesday but he warned me he got no funding, and I insisted I still wanted to know more about his research Do you advise I also send generic email to other professors in my college and faculty even though they aren’t in my department? Funding is very important to me and I wanted to secure a funding before applying to these schools…. I don’t have that luxury to pay application fees to plenty schools, usd conversion rate in my country is high please advise me
Honestly most of the cases it doesn’t matter! But once someone replies to you and show interest, then try to stick with that professor only for further communication until he/she reject you!!
I did so. Though many people doesn't recommend it but it didn't make any problem to me. Just make sure once you hear positive or any interest from any of the professor from one department then stop replying or poking to other professors of that department as long as your discussion with that professor is completed. So, no problem to send email to all but once you hear from anyone and start discussing with him/her during that time don't reach to other professor of that department.
I've recently completed my graduation from bsc in Engineering about 2 months ago. So i am taking 3/4 month for my gre and ielts exam. I've to catch 24 fall. Could you suggest me something.. ❤
@@musfiqurrahman9807 What types of suggestion you are looking for!? I have few videos in huger study go through these and if you have any questions ask there!!
Wise decision is to email professor before even apply. Then you are confirmed of your funding. But if you don’t get any reply and decided to apply then after getting admission letter, you can also reach to professor and say them, you already got admission and now you are looking for funding- teaching assistantship or research assistantship! Good luck!
Hello Brother, if I have a list of 50 universities and if I want to get fund from the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) for PhD, But the problem is, I found there are around 10 to 20 professors in each University in ECE department, that means 20*50=1000 Professors, If I have target to send 200 to 300 email what strategy should I follow? Should I reduce University or Should I reduce Professor from each University? How can I eliminate from the list of professor? Thank You
@@saifatique after commenting on your post I got one positive reply 😅 but he says I don't have fund but you can join my lab with self fund? What should I do?
Hello vaiya, I don't take my GRE yet. Is it too late to send E-mail to the Professors with cgpa, and Ielts for fall-24? Or should I wait for the spring session ? Actually, now I'm preparing for GRE .

Which month can one start sending the mail for fall Ph.D. admission?

Can a professor select a student without considering their GRE score, Can i mail them without talking about GRE ?
Not a good idea for USA 🇺🇸 unless the university waived GRE
