Does CGPA affect admission chances for master's programs abroad in France/Italy?
Yes, your CGPA does affect your chances of admission to master's programs abroad, but it is not the only factor considered. Most universities use a holistic approach and will also review your standardized test scores, work experience, statement of purpose, and letters of recommendation.
For Italy and France (your countries of interest):
- Italy: Requirements vary, but some universities expect a weighted average grade (for example, 24/30 at Politecnico di Torino).
- France: Many institutions require a minimum 6.0/10 CGPA.
A strong profile in other areas - such as high standardized test scores, relevant work experience, and strong recommendations - can help offset a lower CGPA. Admission requirements and evaluation methods are subject to change.
