      Hello!
      I'm applying to some graduate schools, and besides some universities having their requirements when it comes to the format of the Statement of Purpose, what is the standard writing text format. I know they must be in Times New Roman 11pt to 12pt, but I have a few questions:
      1. Should the "Statement of Purpose" title centered or in the left corner?
      2. Should the paragraphs be Align to the left orientation or justified?
      3. Should the line spacing be single spaced, double spaced, 1.5 spaced or 1.15 spaced?
      4. Should the pages be numbered or not numbered?
      5. Is there anything else I'm missing as far as the writing text format of these Statement of Purpose essays?

    Summary
    1) Advises against using the same SOP for different universities; stresses the need to read and follow each university's instructions.
    2) Emphasizes the significance of avoiding grammatical errors; recommends using tools like Grammarly.
    3) Suggests organizing each paragraph around a single point, maintaining a clear and concise structure.
    4) Encourages including relevant experiences and projects while avoiding digressing from the main purpose.
    5) Highlights the importance of showcasing diversity and unique experiences to stand out.
    6) Advises keeping the SOP concise, preferably under 500-600 words, focusing on recent experiences rather than childhood anecdotes.
    7) Recommends creating a logical flow in the SOP, ensuring smooth transitions between paragraphs.
    8) Offers a rough format for the SOP: catchy introduction, previous academic experience, key projects/internships/work experience, brief mention of extracurriculars, why this university and why you're a suitable candidate.

      Well, not really.. what he means in the 4th point is not to talk about stuff which doesn't hold great relevance in your personal/professional growth. But in the 7th point he meant talk about your other skills and knowledge which can be considered has a plus point to your identity.

    Great points.. I would argue 1.5 to 2 pages would make a great SOP. Every premise should be clear and the supporting minutiae should be clear. Most importantly your SOP paragraphs should be succinct... Focus on your purpose.. no one really cares about your projects that much...

      1. Center, bold, all caps
      2. Justified with 1cm first line indentation
      3. Use single-spaced lines.
      4. No need to number the pages. Never go more than 2 pages. 1 - 1.5 pages is usually better. If writing a cover letter, keep it 1 page strictly - including addresses and salutations.
      5. No.

    I am an Electrical Design Consultant with 30 years of design experience in building services and infrastructure networks up to 34.5 kV, currently working for an International Engineering Design Firm as a visiting consultant. My question to you is, all Canadian visa officers know very well that 99%of students go to Canada for dual intent, that's studies + PR. Apart from that the Canadian government is inviting all International students to apply for PR under the Atlantic province program as they want to further develop four such provinces, so then why don't you mention in the SOP the intention of the Canadian government? Moreover, if all the students go back to their countries then how the Canadian government shall fulfill the Atlantic province PR program?
    Awaiting your feedback
    Have a nice day. Engr.BMR

    Is taking a break of 1 year after bachelor's bad if one wants to go for masters. Aktu has postponed final year exam by 2-3 months in a way that it was interfering with the visa and other process. I am in similar condition. I will complete by bachelor's in August 2021 and planning to target fall 2022.
    Should I go for masters after one year break or take a job and target maybe fall 2023-2024.
    Thing is that I am scared as I will not be going abroad masters after bachelor's and I also don't want to do job as most of them are not of my profile. So basically I don't know how I am going to justify this one year break in my future application.

      A break is an opportunity to explore your interests and boost your profile. Take it as a one year self-assembled curriculum, a list of all things that would make you stand out when you do apply for your masters.
      How you spend your time is a very important cue of your skills and abilities to self delegate tasks and accomplish something independently.
      It is an opportunity to do more than what most applicants do, and also an opportunity for you to hammer down on the subject and specialisations you want to pursue.
