    Unhappy frustrated.............

    hy there,
    i have completed my Bsc in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Khulna university of engineering and technology, Bangladesh. I have a long cherished dream of studying in overseas countries specially in USA. But my dream is about to be vaporized. My undergraduate cgpa is not satisfactory at all. Its 2.9 out of 4. Is there any single minimum chance of getting fund from any US universities? I haven't done GRE yet. I am a little bit afraid that whether the GRE score will be helpful for replenishing my cgpa factor or not. Is there any previous record of getting enrolled in US universities with such low CGPA? I dont care about the ranking of the university. Any medium category university will be comply able for me. can you suggest me some universities of that kind?

    hi,

    i'll be frank with u. UR UG percentage is low to get aid. Also the decent unis insist on a 3.0 and above gpa...BUT since ur no from US, they may consider ur marks....gre is one of the factors tht determines ur admission. it wouldn offset ur cgpa per se, but it can surely add weightage...u'll need above 320 to stand very good chances...

    Also, try to get very good LORs and write a carefully worded SOP as to why ur a good student inspite of low marks and how th uni can use a student like u.

    Pls post here again once ur gre and toefl are done. we'll help u out. All the best!
