namaste mitraho,
US madhe uchha shikshan kase ghyave yabaddal ithe mahiti dyayacha vichar aahe.Kahi goshti mi talu shakalo asato pan yogya mahiti nasalyane talata aalya nahit.Tyamule ichhukan karita 'Pudhachyas Thech Magacha Shahana' la anusaun mazyapashi asaleli mahiti det aahe.
Vi. Su. hi mahiti in particula 'MS in Comp. Sci.'
shi sambandhit aahe,pan ticha itar banch chya lokaanahi upayog hou shakel.

Sarva ichhukanna sambodhun:
Preparation :
1.Jar tumhi tumchi bachelor's degree ajun ghetali nasel tar tumacha vel mukhyata: abhyasaavar kendrit kara.Changalaya Univ madhe admission milavanyakarata academics changale asane nitanta garajeche aahe.Shakyato class top karanyacha prayatna kara, pan te shakya nasel tar pratyek sem. madhe kamit kami distinction milavane ha goal theva.
2.Extra caricular activities: abhyas sodun milanara vel yaat kharcha kara.ya activities shakyato swata:la develope kaanarya asavyat.uda. debate/drama/writing and publishing papers/technical competetion/social activities/voluntary teaching etc.Admission milavanyakarata yancha bharpur upayog hoto, karan Univs na fakta scholar nahi tar 'all rounder' vidyarthi hava asato.plus, such accomplishments give you that edge over other candidates.
3.GRE/TOEFL : US madhil Univs bahudha international students kadun yanche results magtat,karan tyanchya kade students chi level judge karayala itar sadhan nasate.(kahi Univs yanche scores magat nahit,tyamule for such things,contact those specific Universities)
4.Advanced GRE : parat, kahi Univs yahi parikshecha score magtat.ha score visheshta: financial aid milvayala upayogi padato.
5.at the time of GRE/TOEFL/AGRE test you can choose 4 Univs to which your scores would be sent without charge.To select them pl. refer to next section (Net based activities)
6.good rapport with your profs. : tumchya college madhalya professor lokanshi changale sambandha theva.no need to be sycophant kinva 'gool lavane'.
It's sufficient to let them know that you are a good,bright and sincere student.

Net based activities:
1.netwar search karun pahilya 100 Univs chi mahiti milava.
2.pratyek Univ chya requirements bagha.uda. required undergrad degree (our Bachelor's degree),
GRE/TOEFL/AGRE score requirements etc.tyavarun tumhala pravesh milayache chances kiti aahet te tharava.
3.pratyek Univ madhe offer karanyat yenare courses ani tyanche description bagha.Description neet vacha karan it tells you what the course is about and what you are to expect from it.
4.kahi courses na 'pre requisites' asatat.mhanje kahi basic courses ghetalyshivaay te courses gheta yet nahit.te neet baghun ghya.
5.tumhala interest asalele ani tumachya career la upayogi padatil ase courses denarya kiman 10 Univs shortlist kara. (2/3 form top25,4/5 from 25-50,2/3 from others).
(Univs select karatana tikade financial aid kiti available aahe he dekhil bagha, in case of confusion, tithalya concerned lokanna mail takun/ph. karun vichara)
6.tyanchya web site var jaun tyanchya kadun brochure ani application material magava.
(kahi thikani on-line application pan karata yete.)
7.Brochures milali ki tyatlya 'Application Deadlines' laal pen ne mark kara.Jar tumhi from outside US application pathavanaar asal tar kimaan daha divasancha postal delay dhyanaat theva.
8.Univs application barobar tumchya Bachelor's degree chya trasncipts dekhil magtat.tyamule tumachya transcripts well in advance milvun theva.
(2 copies pa Univ that you're applying,plus some just in case...).Kahi Univs transcripts directly tumchya college la post karayala sangatat. so check that out.
9.Reco letters: Univs tumhala 2 te 3 lokankadun 'reco letters' gheun tyanna pathavayala sangatat.
reco letter is nothing but a letter from a third person,decribing you in general and your abilities,intellectual potential etc. in particular.In short it's a letter recommending the concerned Univ to admit you.Univs ya reco letters na barech mahatva detat.It's a good idea to get them from your Profs. your good rapport
with profs comes in handy now!
Kahi Univs cha reco letters cha vishishta format asato.make sure that you follow it.tasech kahi Univs recos recommenders na directly post karayala sangatat, so check that out as well.
11.Letter of Intention : Univs tumachya kadun ek letter magtat which describes you, your significant achievements,your goals, the reason you chose that particular Univ for admission,how its choice goes in with your goal and finally what contribution you can make as a student.the letter is to be written by you.since it's given importance, you may want somebody to fine-tune it.
12.Univs na laganaare material pathavayachi ek separate yaadi pratyek Univ karata kara.
13.pratyek application form neet bhara.ani maag check list check karun applications pathavun dya.
don't forget to include the necessary application fee for each application sent.(roughly $50 per application).

to be continued...

Shrini : Good inforamtion. I will like to add one. Sending application Money : Go to nearest Bank which can give you Demand Order in US Dollars. The conversion rates are updated daily. SO, visit the bank, find out the current rates ( there are two rates , Selling Rate and Buying Rate. I am not sure which you need. )and then pay the money and get DD.

bhaag 2: Financial Aid:
Univ madhalya kharchache don bhaag aahet.
1.Tution fee.
2.Monthly expenses.

1.Tution fee sumare $20,000 per year asate.(on an avg.varies depending on specific Univ).
2.Monthly expenses: yaat rahane/jevane/pustake/commuting ityadi yete.sumare
$500/600 per month.

Financial Aid che don mukhya prakaar aahet.
Teaching Assistantship ani Research Assistantship.
T.A. madhe tumhi prof. la tyachya official kaamat madat karata.uda. students kadun assigments ghene, tya grade karane ityadi kaame.
R.A. madhe tumhi prof. chya hatakhali ekhadya vishayavar kaam karata.uda. programming ityadi.

T.A. kinva R.A. milavanyakarata:
tumhi Univs nakki kelya ki tumchya dept. madhalya
pratyek prof. chya homepage var ja.tyache research interests kashat aahet te neet bagha.tasech current projects chi yaadi bagha.tumchya expertise/experience jya prof. lokaanshi julel tya sagalyana mails pathava ki tumhi tya Univ. madhe pravesh gheu icchita ani tyakarata tumhala financial aid havi aahe,tar to prof. tumhala aid milvun denyachya babtit madat karu shakel ka ?
swata:cha resume (including academics/GRE score etc.)tayar kara ani to ya mails barobar joda.If your resume is impressive, somebody is sure to reply.
Another approach is not to mention financial aid directly but to say instead that you're interested in his projects/work and would like to work with him, so is it possible.

T.A. karata kahi thikani T.S.E. (Test of Spoken English) cha score pathavava lagato.tihi mahiti kadhun theva.

Jar tumhala T.A. athava R.A. milali tar Univ tumachya Tution fees bharate ani tumhala dar mahinyala stipend dete, which is about $1000/1200
a month.evadha paisa mahinyakarata agadi raggad hoto!(unless you have some expensive habits,like gambling ;-))

Financial Aid che 50% (of the tution fees),60% asehi prakaar aahet.tasech kahi Univs students na interest free/kami interest ne loans dekhil detat.
this all is highly specific on an Univ.tyachi mahiti kadha.

Vi. Su. ha sarva udyog Univs baddala mahiti kadhar asatana kela,in paralle, tar jasta changale.

Bhag 3 : student visa- F-1.
ekada tumhala admission milali ani tumhi avashyak ti kagadpatre Univ la pathavalit (uda. a letter saying that you are funding yourself for the course,alongwith bank statement or concerned documents incase you get financial aid) ki Univ tumhala ek document pathavate, which is called I-20.he document atishay mahatvaache asate.yashivaay tumhala student visa milu shakat nahi.
I-20 milala ani jar tumhi Bharatat asal tar American counsulate madhe jaun I-20 ani itar kagadpatre submit karun (like proof of finance,proof that you won't migrate to US etc.)
F-1 milavata yeto.samanyata: student lokanna F-1 milayala farasa tras hot nahi (unlike people who apply for H-1,B-1 etc.)
Pan jar tumhi Ameriket job karat asal ani tumhala
job sodun Ameriketunach Univ join karayachi asel tar ajun ej marga aahe, to mhanaje 'Change of Status'
yaat tumhala navin visa milat nahi tar tumache fakta visa status change hote.tyamule jaar tumhi status change var US baher gelat tar parat yenyakarata tumhala navin F-1 karata application karave lagate.
Change of Status milavanyakarata INS la ek application bharun pathavave lagate,alongwith your I-20 copy,I-94 copy and requirede fee.tyanantar sumare 1 mahina te 1 varsha (depending on which state you apply in)madhe tumhala status change milato.
samnyata: Univs madhe international students karata seperate Immigration center asate ani te tumhala change of status milavayala madat karu shakatat.tyahcnya through application karunahi status change milavata yeto.

finally , when in doubt, talk directly to the concerned people.dusaryane dilelya mahiti var 100% visambun kadhich rahu naka, karan 'Swata: melyashivay swarga disat nahi' he ya babtit tari purnapane khare aahe.

so to all aspiring : best of luck and happy Education!
