How to write a great Statement of Purpose?

To get accepted into a foreign University, organizing your SOP is very important. Make sure you have covered all the points you need to create a strong impression with your SOP.

Write SOP in a story form and make it interesting, the reader must feel the urge to know more about you.

• Introduction is very important, It Matters a Lot! "Introduce yourself in a unique manner"
• Demonstrate your passion for the field. (Demonstrate passion by showing your involvement in any extracurricular activities or work experience or any short course)
• Even if you don't have relevant work experience try to connect in a way that will make it look relevant.
• Description of your academic background in the field you’ve chosen.
• Some of the professors you have studied under, especially if they are well-known in that field. (Also attach a letter of recommendation from the same professors)
• Publications or other professional accomplishments in the field (perhaps conference presentations or public readings)
• Any community service or leadership experience while in college.
• Explain why you have chosen the specific grad school and how this school aligns to make you achieve your goals.
• Mention what you like about the university you are applying for, and why: facilities, infrastructure, etc.
• Do deep research about the faculties teaching you a specific discipline, mention the names of one or two professors in that school and what you know of and appreciate about their work, and why you want to study or work under their guidance.
• Specific features of the program and the university, that attract you personally.

Most importantly ask for stories about yourself from your friends, teachers, and parents. Make notes of those as it will help you to write a better story about yourself. I would advise creating a separate tailored SOP for each university, this will create a deeper impact.
